WASHINGTON โ President Donald Trump told Michigan autoworkers that he's done more to improve their lives than their own parents in a speech at a General Motors facility outside of Detroit less than 100 days from the midterm elections.
"I've done more for you than your parents, OK?" Trump said, speaking at GM's automotive testing facility in Milford, Michigan. "Your parents are good. I'm not going to knock your parents, but I have been better to you than your parents. That I can tell you, and they would agree with me."
Trump's remarks came as he blasted United Auto Workers President Shawn Fain for his union's endorsement of Democrats Joe Biden and later Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election. "You wouldn't have an auto industry right now if they got elected," Trump said. "I don't know what happened to the guy. Somebody said he got fired," Trump said of Fain, who remains UAW's president. "But I can tell you, it's the people that count. Those people love Trump."
Trump credited his tariffs on foreign automobiles for strengthening the U.S. auto industry. He said GM's truck and SUV production is up by 20% in 2026. But employment in autos and auto parts is down about 4% nationally from December 2024, the month before Trump took office, according to preliminary seasonally adjusted June numbers from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. In Michigan, total manufacturing jobs fell 2.5% during the same period.
