The wheel was invented thousands of years ago, long before internal-combustion engine vehicles were ever even dreamed of. And chariots were far from the only vehicle that utilized it. Everything from the simplest wheelbarrow and wagon and horsedrawn cart to the grandest coach. Mankind lasted thousands of years without internal-combustion engine vehicles, but without the wheel they'd still be living in caves. You just want to bend over backward to defend every bit if idiocy that comes out of Trump's maw.
