I know how this will affect the mainline workers, dealerships & office staff but what I really want to know is how will the CEOs & board members adapt? Will this truly hurt the company as a whole or will it just facilitate some sweet buybacks in the near future. Has GM done the "Chapter 11 Shuffle"?

Wait- wait- are we winning yet???

The American auto manufacturer’s net income fell by 35%, the company said in its second quarter earnings call; because they're all make really cheap, rotten cars.

Thanks to our wonderful Dictator...😡

An astroturf group of retirees and traitors.

The media, if they did their job should find these people and see how they feel now. Corp media won’t so maybe independent media should. @meidastouch.com

Yippie. MAGA certainly is making things better. But no sympathy for GM as they contributed heavily to the felon's campaign.

The trump taxes are causing a second trump recession. Shocker

Sure, if you want to pay $3500 for an iPad, knock yourselves out.

Oh wait…I thought the American auto industry would now do the best they’ve ever done??

GM makes over 10K in profit from every Silverado it sells. Small cars? A few hundred bucks if they're lucky.

But the American companies aren't supposed to raise their prices. Mr. Perfect Businessman wants the companies to voluntarily take a loss.

HOW this country, a large portion of it, STILL believes other countries pay the tariffs explains why we are in the mess we’re in. I’m guessing, once the trolls on Fox News manage to “take back” nazi, they can explain how being a member of a cult is a good thing!

Still made a shitload

Wow but not many weeks ago The orange baby told all was fantastic actually never seen better, this must be fake news 😂

I would suggest those Senators who came to Canada with demands, go have a talk with GM and put the blame where it belongs on Donald Trump.

Don't forget about monopoly pricing levels for poor built cars. Maybe the model of selling fewer cars for higher prices is not working.

All the fucking winning!!!

Tired yet?

This is weird; Trump says the foreign countries pay the tariffs, why would GM's profits be affected?

When will these corporate owners wake up and speak out?? After the bankruptcy filings?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Welcome to TRUMP HELL ON EARTH.

Cars were already too expensive this will only mean more cars will sit on the lot or production will be cut.

Gee I Guess they should have closed down all of those American factories.

I hope all the assholes with auto industry that voted for Trump lose their jobs

I find it hilarious that Japan has 15% but American manufacturers have 25% because of Mexico and Canada supply chains. And if they drop the chains, their cars will cost even more. And who is going to buy American cars? I suspect that they will be shunned.🤔

I guess they backed the wrong horse.

Fuckers voted for this. Waiting for their puppy dog eyes bitching sessions to start. Fafo.

I hope everyone working for auto manufacturers stop supporting and donating to Republicans and start supporting Democrats.

Cost of cars are going up……who is buying

My husband is pestering me to replace my 2006 Avalon. (2008 thousand miles) I have to limp it along until these monsters are out of office. I refuse to make any big purchases and am only spending on the bare essentials. It surprising how much you don’t need🤔

Have you folks supporting a businessman President digested that you fucked up yet?

Pedo Government Murika

And it’s gonna get worse. The Japanese “trade agreement” gives a big advantage to Japanese automakers.

PsychoPrez is on the job!

Ooof! That’s a lot

Trump’s Murica

Who told you that? PeDonald?

Nobody said it was to help the workers, did they?

No duh.

You mean to tell me blanket tariffs aren’t boosting American manufacturing?? Who could have predicted that outcome?? Oh wait. Everyone. 😑

So much ‘winning’ 🍊🤡🐷💩

BuT TrUmP Is BeTTeR FoR ThE eCoNomEY! — Business Media, News Media, & Voters

They sold out to wall street and stopped letting good engineers building great products for its customers. Their own greed and hubris are destroying them. There are lessons here. First how could a software guy with zero experience in building cars build Tesla and where was GM when this was happening

Don’t they vote for republicans now? I mean….yeah. This is what happens under them.

Fucking survival mode engaged here, too.

The WSJ went after the 🍊💩 with the Epstein tawdry letter in part because billionaire power brokers want stability, tariff wars over, & the 💩 gone.

It would be tragic, wouldn't it, if all those Car Workers for Trump lost their jobs. Thoughts and prayers. Anyway, good job they're not scrapping welfare and healthcare, innit...

Winning…

Yeah I doubt that. It's a cult. I bet they will somehow blame Biden. But everyone outside hardcore MAGA, sure.

Only the start. The trickle down on tariffs will affect many industries. All input material tax, direct like the copper tax, or indirect by general tariff, will decrease manufacturing output and increase prices. unemployment early next year Inflation is coming and will hit double digits by March 26.

And that’s the MAGA you idiots voted for ..

And even if they are, its most likely preowned cars, and semi-older ones at that. Who TF has the budget, in this economy, to buy a brand new, fresh out the pussy car??

We're snow birds, have a new car in Florida. Have decided to keep the 2014 Honda in New Hampshire, rather than a new one, which we had planned on. The same car we bought, Sept.2024, is up 3 grand less than a year later....

You sure it wasn't charging 40% over invoice that caused your profits to fall?

Nice car company. It’d be a shame if anything happened to it. Pay us for a little protection and these tariffs will disappear like they were never here.

Consumers are at a disadvantage. We can either purchase a new car and incur the tariff tax on top of the retail sales price, or we can keep spending on repairs for the old vehicle, which could end up being equally expensive since some parts also have a tariff tax.

Why is this surprising ? The Auto industry is totally integrated between Mexico, Canada and the US , Tariffs on much of those parts plus some partial tariffs on Autos made in Can/Mexico PLUS 50 % tariffs on Steel and aluminum will cost someone . Mostly those costs will be passed on to the consumer.

GM is bound to fail anyways. Zero innovation or anything notable in years

Good!

All these union SCHMUCKs who voted for this.

Thanks Trump 🤬

Bullshit. The tariffs didn't cost the auto makers a fucking cent. WE PAID THE TAXES. THE CONSUMER. When was the last time a corporation absorbed extra costs on goods, services, or production? Your headline is a FUCKING LIE.

Tariffs are not good for them. But building overpriced junk is worse

Well, unfortunately I have zero sympathy. You donated to this morons campaign, reap what you sow.

I wonder who is to blame?

And now Japanese automakers will pay a lower tariff than GM and other US automakers. Way to go, Tubby!

Yup

Shit happens!

And Americans pay for the Trump Tax with higher car prices

And layoffs are coming because of it

Sad…..

Art of the Deal.

That’s a picture of Trump’s ‘think tank’ isn’t it.

But trump is a financial “jeenyus” the other countries pay the tarrifs, they’re like taxes, you know. Corporations fucked around and now they’re finding out. What do these people think we’re going to pay for their products with after all is said and done? Trump is taking everyone down with him.

He uses them to manipulate the damn stock market too.

Yeah that’s likely their plan. Socialist stuff but calling themselves “Alpha Capitalist”

Citizens United means that corruption will never end.

Similar to how the world felt about Germany (after WWII). Calling someone a nazi was an insult & no one trusted Germans or their country. It took a long time before that attitude changed & Germany had to do a lot to show they'd changed.

Trump did that.

THREE casinos!

So uh...Great Again!?

Do you think it has dawned on GM and hell, Forbes to stop funding and supporting the GOP?

#Pedoflation

This should be the headliner in all news reports.

Trumpenomics at its very best!!

Americans pay the import taxes!!! Does the #TACOKing think everyone is STUPID?

It's market is saturated, it's products are too expensive and the returns for the end user are non-existent. The only surprise is why this has taken so long.

Just so much winning! 🙄 It appears tRump has decided to be a dictator and America is the one falling out of the 12th storey window!

Trump fucked US automakers. Stupid people believe that Republicans are good for business (Republicans are terrible for business). bsky.app/profile/gtco...

www.cnbc.com/2025/07/21/s...

Two Republican Nazis said the last 6 months have been the best ever (Trump and Stephen Miller).

So much for tariffs “saving” American industries….

But their executives got the tax breaks. Poor multi-millionaire class.

Former Michigander here. This is what Michigan voted for (twice). I hope they enjoy it!

#TACONOMICS

Trump really threw a monkey wrench in GM! Lost a billion dollars! You put an idiot in charge as President this is what happens. He doesn't understand that the whole world is interconnected now.

He’s going to crash our economy with these stupid tariffs.

So much winning!!!

What’s the big deal? Americans are ok with this. American companies, law firms, universities, institutions will in fact pre-pay bribes and bend their knees to the dictator. Then get effed over. And will still say thank you. Truly the Captain America they like to portray themselves to be.

If Ford and GM declare bankruptcy, Trump will see that as a victory.

I thought libs liked taxing corporation. That pay your fair share thing

The start of the collapse. Canada, and the world, need to hold out until the dumpster fire that is America under tRump, burns itself out.

Maybe they can give Trump another million dollars?

soooo, maybe, now, they'll make cars that people actually want and can afford...just a thought

Wasn't the 34-ct felon, rapist, and pedophile (along with his cronies and sycophants in congress and the supreme court), purchased by the corporations and billionaires? You installed this tyrant and paid big bucks for him. Don't whine when you suffer the consequences of your actions.

Trump is killing our US auto industries. Vote EVERY Republican out in the US House & ever Republican US Senator OUT 2026. We need a tsunami of voting so great the can’t cheat. Never again will we accept all swing states going Republican, not in this divided country.

CORRECTION: GOP tariffs cost America $1B
