Trump claims no Chinese cars in US

President Donald Trump has reiterated his claim about the automotive industry, stating on social media that "We don't have a Chinese car in the whole country." He further asserted that "China is killing Europe's car companies." The statement repeats a claim he made previously, though it overlooks the presence of Chinese-made vehicles from brands like Volvo and Polestar, as well as the growing market share of Chinese EV makers like BYD in other regions. The comments appear aimed at framing China as an economic threat to Western industries.
