EPA’s Final EV Rule May Set the Stage for a ‘Bloodbath’ for American Auto Workers

At a rally in Ohio Saturday, former former President Donald Trump discussed trade policies he’d enact if elected and how they’d benefit American autoworkers. He also warned that a failure to elect him would be a “bloodbath” for the industry, which the legacy media widely reported out of context.

The Environmental Protection Agency released its final tailpipe emissions standards Wednesday, and while the EPA eased off the proposed standards for their initial rollout, they still end up in the same place as the proposed rule.

Automakers will still need to retool a lot of their lines for electric vehicles to meet the standards, and since electric vehicles require far fewer parts to assemble, the standards could result in a “bloodbath” for the American auto worker.

Trump was right. Bloodbath or not, the Biden administration knows it went too far and is scaling back now.
