"Trump and Biden's Dueling Visits to Michigan Autoworkers Ignite 2024 Race"

Former President Donald Trump visits Michigan autoworkers, following President Joe Biden's visit the day before, highlighting the importance of Rust Belt battleground states in the 2024 presidential election. Trump aims to "save" autoworkers and will address them at a Detroit auto-parts supplier, coinciding with the second Republican presidential debate. Both Biden and Trump see the Rust Belt states, including Michigan, as crucial for victory. Trump won these states in 2016, tapping into the disillusionment of residents affected by the decline of manufacturing. Biden, on the other hand, campaigned on his support for organized labor and won back these states in 2020. The autoworkers' union, UAW, has not yet endorsed a candidate for 2024.
