Pete Buttigieg on Trump Tariffs, Taxing Billionaires, and Republican Gays

We should be making those here. The other part of the story I was telling you about, about Indiana, Howard County, where those Chrysler jobs were, and St. Joe County, where I grew up. And a lot of places in Michigan where I live now is the EV battery factories.

Like, there is a $3 or $4 billion GM battery factory going up on the western edge of the county where I grew up that is bigger than any manufacturing investment that happened there in my entire life.

China is making big bets in EV. I don't believe the Chinese Communist Party is terribly concerned about being first in climate change. They understand the geostrategic implications of owning the 21st century vehicle market the way we did the last century. So is that an example of where it could be appropriate to use tariffs? Absolutely.

I mean, I think at the end of the day, we can do the clean tech stuff better. Better than them or just better? Both. Clean tech, what does that mean? Anything like from electric vehicles to solar energy installations, all that stuff. We can do it better, but we have to make a commitment as a country that we are going to invest in that. It doesn't just happen.

There's this fiction that all of the things we see around us in the marketplace just came around without any policy choices. Right. There were huge policy choices that made the automobile possible in this country. Subsidies on everything from fossil fuels to the interstate highway system, right? We need to make similar choices around owning the clean tech market for the future, owning AI.
