Huge Crowd Gathered Outside Of Trump’s Speech In Michigan


President Trump took a trip to Clinton Township, Michigan to address auto part workers about the ongoing UAW strike.

Trump gave his speech inside an auto parts factory which had a limited amount of seating which caused many of his supporters to line up outside.

Despite not being able to go inside the crowd outside was ecstatic and at one point the crowd started to chant “We love Trump, we love Trump.”

A day after Joe Biden made history by becoming the first sitting president to join a picket line, former President Donald Trump headed to Michigan to speak with autoworkers.

Trump delivered a speech at Drake Enterprises, an automotive manufacturing plant in Clinton Township.

After Trump announced that he would be visiting Michigan to autoworkers, Biden announced he would also be making a stop in Michigan.

This received criticism from Trump, who claimed the president was only visiting autoworkers because he was going to.

“Crooked Joe Biden had no intention of going to visit the United Autoworkers until I announced that I would be heading to Michigan to be with them,” Trump said in a social media post. “If the UAW ‘leadership’ doesn’t ENDORSE me, and if I don’t win the Election, the Autoworkers are ‘toast’…”

 

During Trump’s speech the crowd started to boo as he mentioned how Biden also visited Michigan but came only to pose for pictures.

Per AP:

As his Republican rivals sparred onstage in California at their second primary debate, Donald Trump was in battleground Michigan Wednesday night working to win over blue-collar voters by lambasting President Joe Biden and his push for electric cars in the midst of an autoworkers’ strike.

“I will not allow under any circumstances the American automobile industry to die,” Trump said at Drake Enterprises, a non-unionized auto parts supplier in Clinton Township, about a half-hour outside Detroit.

The Republican front-runner’s trip came a day after Biden became the first sitting president in U.S. history to walk a picket line as he joined United Auto Workers in Detroit. The dueling appearances had the feel of the opening salvo of the 2024 general election, which increasingly looks like a rematch between Trump and Biden, even though primary voting won’t begin until next year.
