[Trump Announces $4.2 Billion Audi Plant in the US, Supporting Tariff Policy] On October 25th, at a campaign rally in Georgia, US President Trump defended his decision to impose tariffs, claiming that tariffs have made America richer. He also announced that Volkswagen Group had agreed to invest $4.2 billion in a new Audi plant in the state. "Think about it, 200,000 cars a year. It's incredible," Trump told the crowd in Perry. "This will be the largest single investment in the history of the American auto industry, the modern history." He then added, "Without tariffs, they simply wouldn't come." Trump's remarks come as Republicans attempt to overturn the Senate seat held by Democrat Jon Osoff in the midterm elections, despite trailing in the polls. This campaign stop marks Trump's second visit to the state in two weeks, highlighting the importance of the Georgia Senate seat race. The announcement regarding Audi signifies a political victory for Trump, who had previously been on the defensive in several battleground states regarding the domestic impact of tariffs in the Senate race.
