a market that MAGA types probably don’t think exists. (I suspect that MAGA types think that Mexico’s upper and middle classes get around by donkey-back and Oxcart).

If I were a Mexican. a Mexican given reason to be confident about the reliability of Chinese electric cars, I’d buy a Chinese electric instead of an American-brand car on general principals and to show how little I think of Donald John and his MAGA politics.
