Much of the routine trade and investment between China and America is entirely appropriate and in America’s interest. But inserting the Chinese Communist Party into America’s pay-to-play system and its economic development strategy isn’t just crossing a line. It’s a leap into an abyss of stupidity.

It’s odd Stellantis said they would idle the plant for at least 6 months rather than just closing it permanently. That means the plant will be closed next year during UAW and Stellantis negotiations for a new contract. It’s been opined that Stellantis could used this to extract concessions from the UAW which could be more valuable than the cost of keeping the plant open.
