Mercedes to the US?

I guess that last year Lutnick tried to get Mercedes to move their HQ to the US.
Does he want to put Cadillac out of business?

They never pay off and states have slowed down on these kind of things. It shows how stupid Lutnick and Trump’s economic team are that they think these are a good idea.
