It hyperbole, theres no way that "All of the cars in the United States could
suddenly and without warning be 'turned off'". So right off the bat the writer
is clearly an idiot.
You couldn't even turn off all the cars in one state. The writer doesn't seem
to recognize:A. How big the USA isorB.
I agree, at best its poorly written hyperbole...

Could be. First thing I will do is check the sump pump. Maybe it is in the same
circuit and with the loads of water maybe when it tried to kick on it was
locked up or something and tripped it. It has been dry so it has not had to run
for quite a long time.

That’s the problem with code allowing a GFCI receptacle to protect the
downstream receptacles. Anything downstream gets wet, the whole circuit goes
down.
