- 0:43Speaker 4: That's not a coincidence. It's a commitment. And now at
- 0:47Speaker 4: this unprecedented moment in automotive history, who benefits from Ford's
- 0:51Speaker 4: commitment to America for over one hundred and twenty years.
- 0:55Speaker 1: You And then it's this Ford Motor Company from America
- 1:00Speaker 1: for Americans.
- 1:01Speaker 4: Love it?
- 1:03Speaker 1: Yeah, So what do y'all think of that that spot?
- 1:05Speaker 5: I think anything that shows some kind of American patriotism,
- 1:10Speaker 5: America for America.
- 1:11Speaker 6: They have me.
- 1:12Speaker 5: I'm hooked. I will buy I have a Lincoln, I
- 1:15Speaker 5: need another one and I'm I'm going to get a Ford.
- 1:19Speaker 3: You know, while that was playing, I looked it up
- 1:21Speaker 3: real fast. I wanted to see what was the reason
- 1:24Speaker 3: behind it it, said Rob Cafel. He's the Ford's director
- 1:28Speaker 3: of US sales. He said, this was a moment in
- 1:31Speaker 3: time we were thinking what would it take for Ford
- 1:34Speaker 3: Motor Company to shine during this uneasiness in the market,
- 1:38Speaker 3: both for consumers and automotive The answer America. Ford is
- 1:42Speaker 3: an American company, and while they make and say automobiles worldwide,
- 1:45Speaker 3: their origins are an America and their primary market is America.
- 1:49Speaker 1: I love it for it is Henry Ford is an
- 1:52Speaker 1: American icon. You know, it really is like Edson, you know,
- 1:57Speaker 1: like Musk, you know, like Steve Jobs. He's one of
- 2:00Speaker 1: those titans of industry, and you know, to still have
- 2:04Speaker 1: the company with his name on it as the number
- 2:06Speaker 1: one car employer in the United States of America, and
- 2:11Speaker 1: they manufacture more cars and trucks in the United States
- 2:14Speaker 1: than any other car company. Yeah, I think that says something.
- 2:18Speaker 3: I love that, And you know, I think that a
- 2:20Speaker 3: lot of businesses that are American made, America owned, especially
- 2:24Speaker 3: the mom and pop you know, I think they're thriving.
- 2:27Speaker 3: Lindsay sent we have our own sister thread, and she
- 2:30Speaker 3: sent something last night about what the mainstream media said
- 2:35Speaker 3: was going to happen after the tariffs were put into place.
- 2:38Speaker 3: What has actually happened is the opposite of what they thought, right, So,
- 2:42Speaker 3: I wonder if this has any I wonder if there's
- 2:45Speaker 3: if there's any indication as to why they did this
- 2:47Speaker 3: now with the tariffs in the automotive Yeah, I mean.
- 2:51Speaker 1: When they're talking about that marketing stability, I think that's
- 2:53Speaker 1: what they're talking about, is the tariffs and the uncertainty
- 2:57Speaker 1: of the pricing. That they did this employee pricing thing
- 2:59Speaker 1: right after Donald Trump came into office, basically saying that
- 3:03Speaker 1: everybody in America is going to get the same price
- 3:05Speaker 1: for the car and truck that the employees of Ford
- 3:07Speaker 1: do you amazing And in the process, we just had
- 3:10Speaker 1: the Labor report that came out earlier this week where
- 3:13Speaker 1: the consumer price Index, one of the things they talked
- 3:16Speaker 1: about was new and used car prices came down since
- 3:19Speaker 1: Donald Trump's been in office. That's kind of for maybe
- 3:23Speaker 1: part of that process.
- 3:25Speaker 5: You know, it's kind of crazy, and this is to me,
- 3:27Speaker 5: it shows you really the number of people that are
- 3:30Speaker 5: think like we do. Is this is where we show
- 3:33Speaker 5: our support. We see companies that are for the small,
- 3:36Speaker 5: the mom and pop. We like Ford, what they're doing.
- 3:38Speaker 5: This is who we support. We don't protest, we don't boycott. Right,
- 3:45Speaker 5: it's all quietly.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Yeah, you're not gonna go key.
- 3:47Speaker 5: No, we're not going to key, but we get we
- 3:49Speaker 5: show our support by this. You show us who you
- 3:52Speaker 5: are and we will support you. Not loud and proud,
- 3:55Speaker 5: but we will support you financially and by purchasing things
- 3:59Speaker 5: because we all realize there's more of us than them.
- 4:02Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 4:03Speaker 1: Well, and you know that's kind of that reminds me
- 4:04Speaker 1: of some of these other boycotts that Left tried to do,
- 4:06Speaker 1: of Chick fil A, of Hobby Lobby, of those all
- 4:09Speaker 1: failed because conservatives went out to support what it was
- 4:13Speaker 1: they supported. They weren't spending time protesting and denouncing what
- 4:16Speaker 1: they opposed. They just went out and supported what they supported.
- 4:19Speaker 1: I think Ford's picking up on some of that here
- 4:21Speaker 1: and hoping that they can cash in.
- 4:22Speaker 3: Can we just go back to the whole tariff thing
- 4:25Speaker 3: for just a seconds, Yeah, because I think this is
- 4:27Speaker 3: so important to really recognize and talk about the left
- 4:32Speaker 3: does a bang up job of fear mongering. When things
- 4:36Speaker 3: have like every single thing Trump said he was going
- 4:39Speaker 3: to do, they fear mongers. Oh this is going to
- 4:41Speaker 3: put us under, Oh this is going to make us
- 4:43Speaker 3: we're gonna die. You know, they're going to put us
- 4:45Speaker 3: back in constant.
- 4:45Speaker 6: You know, we're gonna everything that he said he said.
- 4:49Speaker 6: Now you've got to be patient. Be patient. I promise you,
- 4:52Speaker 6: this is what's going to happen. Because he knows business.
- 4:55Speaker 6: They never come back, They never come back around and
- 4:58Speaker 6: say we were wrong. Yeah, are bad.
- 5:01Speaker 1: I have not seen a single news article about how
- 5:04Speaker 1: the price of eggs have conduct come down, And.
- 5:06Speaker 6: That's what it's like, Why why don't they do that?
- 5:09Speaker 6: That is that's truth, that's facts.
- 5:12Speaker 3: So you're in the news business, Yeah, fear mongering, that's
- 5:15Speaker 3: not even really what you're supposed to do as a journalist.
- 5:17Speaker 3: But a lot of those are pundits understand that. But
- 5:20Speaker 3: the fact that here we are six months into his presidency,
- 5:24Speaker 3: I mean, it happened faster and nobody's talking about it.
- 5:27Speaker 5: They are Have you seen the guy on CNN that
