What possible reason would Ford have to use material or parts from China?
A supplier makes the lifters for Ford. Like everything else manufactured in China is for the lowest cost as possible. I do know the aerospace jobs we do we cannot use China supplied titanium simply because they're notorious for selling material that doesn't meet specifications.
Yes, get what they need, without paying a American worker a far wage for making it.
Over the years I have discussed with people that had bumper stickers big letters UAW, small "don't display on import" would make more sense "don't display at Walmart" because I suspect even if car is the 2nd largest purchase more of income is spent on other things, mostly imported.
Back when you could by a Ford in any color you wanted, as long as it was black, the capitalist understood needed to pay workforce enough so they could afford to drive a Ford.
Somehow much of that idea is gone.
