they were cutting jobs from their ev sectors months before the election because  > the slower-than-anticipated ev transition that was back in early october. you could say the layoffs of these non-manufacturing jobs are trump's fault, but that also ignores the chinese market and foreign companies like volkswagen being forced to close factories in germany because their evs can't keep up with chinese evs (there are other reasons but this is a big one). it's more of a canary in the coal mine situation for automakers looking to capture the ev market, and gm is way far behind and that sector has been losing them money.
