On the same day as Tesla's Cybercab launch, former President Donald Trump said on the campaign trail that he would ban Chinese-made autonomous vehicles if reelected to the White House this November.
"I will continue my first-term efforts to protect America from the threat of Chinese automobiles. I will stop Chinese and other countries producing automobiles and autonomous vehicles," Trump said at a Detroit Economic Club campaign event. He also promised to make car loans fully tax deductible and touted his plan to give small businesses bigger tax deductions.
