AutoExec Summary
Former US presidential candidate Donald Trump falsely claimed at a conference that the US Government has mandates requiring 100 per cent electric vehicle (EV) sales, despite no such requirements existing. Trump criticized the EV industry and vowed to end incentives if elected, while also threatening tariffs on Chinese-made vehicles. The EPA has targets for EV sales, but they are not mandates. Trump’s advisors ended the conference early, citing audio issues. United Auto Workers endorsed Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.
