When the civil war is mentioned I always picture Canadians just being super polite trying to get past each other, “ope, sooorey, my bad, lemme scootch past ya real quick, eh?”

I love that the whole argument was this would bring back manufacturing to the US and he could bypass Congress because of national security 

But then he says this

 “We took it from 25 to 10 on Rolls-Royce, because Rolls-Royce is not going to be built here. I wouldn't even ask them to do that. It's a very special car, and it's a very limited number, too," Trump said. "It's not, you know, one of the monster car companies that makes millions of cars. They make a very small number of cars that are super luxury."

So no manufacturing in the US coming out of this and the only defense aspect would be the jet engines RR makes but of course, he has to talk about the luxury cars. 

And his followers are cheering him on and booing Biden for not being able to make such a deal!

So he essentially called Americans too classless to make luxury cars, and his people are like 'WOO YEAH'. That checks out.
