United Auto Workers (UAW) President Shawn Fain took a swipe at former President Trump, saying he serves a “billionaire class,” a day ahead of Trump’s visit to Detroit where he will speak to union workers.
When asked on CNN about the former president’s trip to Detroit, Fain said, “I see no point in meeting with him because I don’t think the man has any bit of care about what our workers stand for, what the working class stands for.”
“He serves a billionaire class and that’s what’s wrong this country,” Fain continued.
Trump is expected to travel to Detroit on Wednesday, where he will meet with current and former union workers amid their ongoing strike against the “Big Three” automakers — Ford, General Motors and Stellantis.
Fain said it is “pathetic irony” Trump will reportedly hold a rally at a non-union plant in Macomb County, Mich.
This is outrageous. Trump has done nothing but supported unions and workers rights. That’s why I dare anyone to prove to me that I’m wrong. He only works with the most progressive countries like Saudi Arabia, China, and Russia.
Hey that’s not fair. If any of these union bozos can slip him more cash under the table than the aforementioned three, he’d be happy to work with them for now.
So you are saying we should start an NFT fake university beauty pageant and pay Trump off for his support? I don’t know if he would go for it.
