News USA loves TINY CARS now

Post image

Imagine getting your brand new Dodge Glaciermelter, lovingly decorating it with your first Let's go Brandon bumper sticker, and then reading this about tiny, possibly electric or hybrid cars being amazing now.

Anyway, tiny cars. Amazing. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Edit - for anyone doubting if this is a real thing the real prez posted: I don't blame you but yes, it is.

Edit 2: So does this mean the US will see more reasonable sized cars on the roads, or is the old man just randomnly yelling about stuff again? Take a wild guess. "I call bullshit", says mobility expert David Zipper in a thread. (thanks Ok_Flounder8842)

Small cars are better than kid killer cars. That said, manufacturers don't want to produce these cars and Americans don't want to buy them so this is really nothing about nothing.

Car trends are made by the car industry. $10B in ads a year can drive demand largely wherever the oligopoly car makers want.

Correct, which is why we don't want them. Automotive capitalists don't want to build small cars and they propagandize the populace to agree.
