Ford Motor Co. said its profit this year is
poised for a sharp drop on the growing fallout
from President Donald Trump’s tariffs,
underscoring the dramatic policy shifts in
Washington that are upending the auto industry.
The Dearborn, Michigan-based automaker forecast
adjusted earnings before interest and taxes
this year will fall by as much as 36%. That’s
in large part due to a net tariff impact of
$2 billion, about $500 million more than the
company expected previously.
Not to worry. Trump'll bail 'em out... for a small donation.
Federal interference in the marketplace!
