In a move that is likely to spark controversy, former US President Donald Trump is set to visit General Motors' Michigan proving ground, where he is expected to tout the benefits of tariffs and roll back federal regulations on electric vehicles. The visit comes as Trump continues to make his presence known in the world of politics and industry, despite his term in office having ended. Trump has long been a vocal supporter of tariffs, which he believes help to protect American industries and workers. His stance on electric vehicles, however, is less clear, and the rollback of federal regulations could have significant implications for the automotive sector.
