during ⁤a recent address to Congress, President Donald ⁢Trump announced‍ a proposal⁤ to make interest payments on car loans tax deductible, but only for vehicles manufactured ⁣in teh United States. This plan is part of broader economic policies aimed at supporting American manufacturing‌ and reducing the tax burden on families. Trump emphasized that this⁢ initiative would encourage consumers to purchase american-made cars, similar to existing tax deductions for home mortgage interest.

In his speech, Trump reiterated previous campaign commitments, including proposals to eliminate taxes on tips, overtime, and Social Security benefits. The response from‍ social media users ⁣has been notably positive, ‍praising the‍ initiative as a smart move to bolster American jobs and take advantage of tax savings while promoting domestic production.

Furthermore, Trump criticized the automotive policies of the prior administration and promised to cancel mandates perceived as detrimental to‍ the industry, emphasizing the importance of affordable vehicles in achieving the American dream.

President Donald Trump vowed during his address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday evening that he would make interest payments on loans for cars made in the United States tax deductible.

The move is part of several economic policies meant to promote American manufacturing and to decrease the tax burden on households.

“I also want to make interest payments on car loans tax deductible, but only if the car is made in America,” Trump told lawmakers and other senior government officials assembled for the speech.

Trump previously floated similar plans on the campaign trail.

During one October event in North Carolina, for instance, Trump said that he would “make interest on car loans fully tax deductible,” but only “if they build that particular product, namely an automobile, in the United States,” according to Reuters.

The outlet noted that the plan would treat interest paid on car loans much like the deduction for interest currently in place for home mortgages.

During his Tuesday speech, Trump reiterated his commitment to policies he proposed on the campaign trail, such as ending taxes on tips, overtime, and Social Security payments.

Social media users reacted positively to the plan as announced on Tuesday evening.

“Love this! Boosting American jobs & cars — genius move. Time to drive local, save on taxes, and keep our economy rolling,” one user said.

“Another reason to buy American made vehicles other than the tariffs!” a second user remarked.

“Great way to promote a made in America agenda,” a third commenter added.

Trump has also been critical of the automotive policies pursued by the previous administration.

During the campaign, he promised to “cancel Kamala’s insane electric vehicle mandate immediately.”

“The problem is they don’t go far, they’re very expensive, they’re made in China, and they have some other things,” Trump continued.

“Now with that being said, I think they’re phenomenal. … I say that because of Elon,” he said in reference to Elon Musk, who now leads the Department of Government Efficiency.
