Former United States President Donald Trump accused his successor Joe Biden of visiting Michigan to "pose for photos" while claiming that it was the current head of state's policies that forced automobile workers from the Wolverine State to strike.

Speaking at a rally in Clinton Township, Michigan, Trump said that with "crooked" Biden, the workers in Michigan have "none of the things we want." He went on to accuse the president of turning the US over to "left-wing globalism" and countries such as China. Trump insisted that, if re-elected in 2024, his administration will choose "American Dream over foreign profit."

Trump stressed that the workers are the ones "making our country run" and that he "put everything on the line to fight for you," the working class. He vowed he would grant the US public a future that "protects American labor, not foreign labor."
