Trump's Controversial Michigan Visit: Union Workers and White House Battle

Donald Trump skipped the second GOP debate and instead addressed current and former union members in Michigan, signaling a focus on winning back working-class voters who supported him in 2016 but favored Biden in 2020. Trump's visit to Macomb County, a historically blue-collar stronghold, suggests he sees an opportunity to sway union members. His campaign rolled out an ad criticizing his treatment of autoworkers, while Biden's campaign released an ad highlighting Trump's lack of support for workers. The push for electric vehicles by Biden has raised concerns among autoworkers, and Trump's team believes they can exploit this issue to win over union voters.
