But it's still not a US company, and they're not moving any jobs out of the US with this factory, it just means some percentage of Corollas sold in the US (like 20% level from what I can find) will come from Mexico instead of coming from Canada. The rest of the Corollas sold in the US will still be made in the US.

I'm not against tariffs per se, just don't see why all of a sudden Toyota is all of a sudden in the cross hairs for something that was announced since at least last year and that has no new impact on the US.
