The hosts criticize this as a "smokescreen," noting that the US currently produces only 10% of the world's semiconductors. They argue that the numerous exceptions for "unreasonable cost" or "non-availability" render the policy largely symbolic.

In the U.S., a new $3.5 trillion budget bill proposes a $4,500 tax incentive for electric vehicles, but only for manufacturers with unionized workforces. This policy favors domestic companies like GM and Ford while penalizing non-union manufacturers like Tesla, Toyota, and Honda.

They argue that this linguistic choice is a deliberate attempt to sound populist while remaining grammatically incorrect. The segment also touches on Harris's habit of referring to Biden simply as "Joe," which they find demeaning to the office of the Vice President.
