Donald Trump was celebrating just a few days ago that Chrysler was going to open a new plant in Michigan instead of in Mexico[1][2]. Could this be a political move by the EPA?

- matthewmacleod 10y agoIt could be, but it almost certainly is not.
- problems 10y agoYeah, I mean I don't think he's complained about the EPA busting emissions violators, has he? He at least seemed to be pushing a "clean air and water" thing, which something like this should certainly fall under, even if you don't want to police carbon emissions aggressively as some would like to. I think problems like this deserve investigation effort and aren't particularly political - probably an easy play to your average citizen.
- mrgoldenbrown 10y agoGiven how much he wants to gut the EPA, maybe they figured this was their last chance to get the news out.
- burkaman 10y agoWhy wouldn't they have done the same thing to Ford months ago?
- alphabettsy 10y agoIt could be due to the fact that they were caught in Germany a few months ago doing the same thing.... Or that another major automaker was just caught, bringing greater attention to it. I'd say those are both more likely.
