The 1980s wasn't called the "Cold War era" because Japan suddenly gave us nice cars. The USA welcomes economic competition with foreign rivals. May the best car win.

The issue is that China is beginning to aggressively take out interest in Democracies in their sphere: first Hong Kong, and everyone knows that Taiwan is in their crosshairs now.

We didn't (and wouldn't) go to war over Hong Kong. Taiwan however... that's different and is truly a serious threat.

If anything: additional trade and cultural exchanges are needed to foster a spirit of competition / cooperation even in the face of our nuclear weapons being trained upon each other. We don't really know if the Moscow Circus prevented a US / Soviet nuclear exchange... but maybe it did??

EVs may be a winner take all market in the sense that there is a lot of software and tech that the incumbents (except Tesla) are traditionally bad at. If the market expects this it may take a long time for incumbents to catch up. We might see bankruptcies and consolidation. Auto manufacturing is the final large manufacturing industry left in the US and it going away will hurt the country dearly.
