Ford Motor shut down a battery factory and laid off 1,600 workers after President Trump and Republicans gutted government support for electric vehicles.

This is what happens when people don’t consume news, and it’s not made available to them for free.

    If I have my timelines correct they killed the factory after Trump got elected. Whether that’s cause he would kill funding for electrification or cause he would increase subsidies for gas, it’s hard to say, but either way Ford saw more money in gas than electric with Trump.
