    > The problem we have is that they want a car company and I want a car company. They want steel and we want steel.”

    > The President said that on trade “the U.S. was always giving everything to Canada” but Americans now “want to make our own steel” and autos.

    Is he just demented? Does he not know the US has more auto factories than us? There’s also a reason why no one refers to “US auto industry” or the “Canadian/Mexican auto industry”, they’re all so tightly integrated that there really is only an NA auto industry. Parts cross borders multiple times during assembly.

    I know less about the steel industry, but I’m pretty sure the US makes steel too…
