The White House is circulating a draft report by the U.S. Commerce Department over whether to impose tariffs on automobile imports to protect national security, three people familiar with the matter said.

 

President Donald Trump is scheduled to meet with senior members of his trade team on Tuesday to discuss how to proceed on the potential tariffs, two of the people said. Speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations, they didn’t give any insight into Commerce’s conclusions.

 

On a day when U.S. stocks were broadly lower, shares of General Motors Co. declined and Ford Motor Co. trimmed an advance following news of the auto-tariff report.

Yes yes, I'm sure that US consumers would love to see their cars go up 25% in price and would also love to see tens of thousands of jobs be lost. 

 

Don't worry, I'm sure the GOP is going to cut rich people's taxes some more to even things out.
