UPDATE - follow-up to U.S. auto industry pleads with Trump to ban Chinese vehicles - Axios: The American car manufacturing sector is urging the Trump administration to implement a complete ban on vehicles imported from China. Industry representatives argue that Chinese-made cars pose a direct threat to the domestic market and national security. Officials from the sector made this formal request to block the entry of these vehicles to protect local jobs and manufacturing plants from foreign competition. The administration has not yet announced a final decision regarding the requested import restrictions.
