American company. They aren't moving from the US to mexico. I just don't see what angle he has here.



Bc they aren't building a plant in Mexico to sell BMWs to Mexicans. They are building the plant in Mexico to have cheaper labor, skirt workplace laws and sell BMWs to U.S. citizens.

Yes, but they have a huge plant in South Carolina that produces cars sold in the U.S. and around the world. BMW is making a car in the U.S. for every car it sells in the U.S. It's just that each plant produces certain models, so some of them are imported from Germany, China, or Mexico.

I don't see trump's angle here. They're not going to build every single model in the U.S.
