Record car prices on Trump’s watch: KBB says September average tops $50k, up 4%. Full size ~60k, pickups 66k, SUVs 76k. Tariffs on autos, parts, steel, aluminum, copper swell costs. $20k cars extinct. K shaped economy crushes workers.

DeWine is actively obstructing the will of the people. There will be a penalty for this in the future.
