https://www.cnbc.com/2023/09/15/-trump-criticizes-uaw-leadership-amid-strike-warns-auto-workers-jobs-are-moving-to-china.html

Quote
Former President Donald Trump warned that U.S. autoworkers’ jobs will move to China and accused the United Auto Workers’ leadership of failing its members, thousands of whom went on strike Friday against General Motors, Ford and Stellantis.

“The autoworkers will not have any jobs, Kristen, because all of these cars are going to be made in China. The electric cars, automatically, are going to be made in China,” Trump told NBC News’ Kristen Welker in an exclusive, wide-ranging interview set to air Sunday on “Meet the Press.”

This misunderstands conservative economic policies. We believe our economic policies help the worker and extremely powerful union bosses end up hurting the workers and consumers as well.

My belief is that unions should be company wide and not industry wide

No, people understand perfectly well what "stay in line or we'll scab you with foreign labor" means. It's the sort of thing Mr. MAGA has claimed he opposes.

What does this mean? GM needs a different union than Ford and Chrysler a different one than both? Why?

And the fact that you recognize this and still actually support someone with such an obvious narcissistic personality disorder says something disturbing about you.

Republicans are doing a really bad job reading the room here.

Then again they also totally botched the Roe repeal.

I'm starting to think maybe the Republican Party just isn't actually the party of "regular everyday traditional normal real Americans" they think they are.

Also I want to add that this quote is WAY out of context and the title of this thread is clickbait.
Trump never said he was against the strike, he was referring to Biden's policies when he said their jobs will be outsourced.
He never answered Welker's question about who he supports and just pivoted to his talking points.

We believe our economic policies help the worker

The Aztecs believed that if they did less human sacrifice the sun would go out.

I agree that union bureaucracy is complicit in the past half-century of outsourcing.

I think Trump is correct policy wise as strikes like this could risk more outsourcing but statements like this will hurt him politically.

He didn't say the strike would cause outsourcing, he said Biden's policies will.

Yeah they just elected basically a socialist to their presidency. The only Republicans Shawn Fain is going for are the Irish variety.

He isn't gonna be Prez anyways, the polls are understating the blk numbers like McLaughlin and QU say Biden is at 39 and 41 like Trafalgar last yr said, and they got all the top races wrong, Rassy has Biden at 47/52. Why, because, they have Biden at 75 blk vote and he is gonna get 90 percentage pts, Trump is gonna get the same 9 percentage pts as Larry Elder and Herschel Walker did, when they took lost


Since, polls say that Trump is gonna get 25 percentage pts of blk vote instead of 9, like Elder and Herschel Walker got 9, not 25, what in that interview did he address poverty or poor or blk or Latinos, he always critique CA for mass Homelessness, he can't because his 15 percent Corporate taxes, doesn't include spending on getting rid of poverty, just funding the Government

That's why OSR got Fetterman wrong because Trafalgar had Biden at 40 percentage pts Approval
