He's just being a typical American MORE BIGGER FASTER tool. I drive an 08 Versa with a 1.8l with 122hp and I have absolutely no problem being one of the fastest people on the road, because even a slow ass car by modern standards can do all the things. I never have trouble getting up to speed on a ramp or whatever.

How on earth does that data refute what I said? There's no reason Corollas selling 232k units a year and my statement can't both be true. It doesn't have to be a universally held stigma for what I said to be true.

Just look at our small car sales versus almost any other first world country. Something has to explain the massive disparity in sales.

It's also a cultural thing as in my experience, there are quite a few Americans who look down on small car drivers. I feel certain at least part of that is people associating small cars with being low income. Another part likely comes from whatever is motivating so many Americans to buy ridiculously oversized vehicles most have no legitimate need for.

It's all ridiculous of course but we're a very car centric culture.

Only among Trump's worshippers who for some reason believe all his nonsense without question.

As I said, there is nothing unusual about Biden using an autopen. This is a problem completely invented by Trump so he can illegally overturn things Biden signed off on which is the entire reason the Supreme Court is now ruling on the issue.

Duffy said his department has "cleared the deck" for Toyota Motor Corp. and other carmakers to build and sell cars in the U.S. that are "smaller, more fuel-efficient."

Why would they want more fuel-efficient vehicles to be built? That completely undermines "drill baby drill". It's the same reason he doesn't want electric vehicles built or wind and solar power generation.

I would say it would be nice if they could get their stories straight, but when you're dealing with someone with dementia, that's not a reality.
