I'd sit in position one and tell Trump he needs to put India on the ban list. lol
I'd choose the same seat, but take the time to explain China, EVs, and the future of the US manufacturing industry.
After we landed, I'd expect a kickback from the Ford Motor Company (or "Ford's" as we assembly-line workers used to call our employer).

I have friends who work in tech and some have been laid off because of H1B and they know many more who've been impacted from it. Almost exclusively affects younger guys, so that matters more to me right now. People are just going to buy EVs anyways at some point.
Also, I was told my entire life that by virtue of my southern birth I owed some eternal blood guilt over slavery and that I deserve to witness the desecration of the character and memorials to my ancestors over it. The very same people who've inflicted this charge against me and my people now heap nothing but praise for china because they make a certain set of products cheaply while completely disregarding any basic environmental protections and treating their own workers to conditions 10x worse than anything slaves in the south experienced. The same people tell me that we need to emulate china for the future of US manufacturing. This is how I interpret any praise of Chinese manufacturing. In light of that, what would you say about china? Really curious about it. Not alleging that you think the prior things, just noticing a pattern.
