Agreed that Bloomberg is an idiot, along with the other libtards mentioned. However, just because the Nissan is assembled in Mexico is no indication that the car doesn't have some percentage, perhaps over 50%, of parts made in this country. I'd be willing to bet that the percentage of parts, especially value of parts, manufactured in Mexico is at or close to ZERO. My Chevy HHR was assembled in Mexico but the engine and tranny are U.S. in origin. Likewise, many "American" cars assembled here have a large percentage of foreign parts. Car brand names and where a car is put together don't mean all that much. Even with guns, my Beretta is actually assembled in Maryland, though I'm sure at least some of the parts might be from Italy.
