Minnesota Gov. Walz Criticizes Trump's Manufacturing Record

Former U.S. President Trump's criminal trial on charges of falsifying business records continues in New York

During a recent campaign event in Detroit, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz made strong statements criticizing President Donald Trump's approach to manufacturing and working-class Americans.

Walz accused Trump of lacking knowledge about working people and the middle class, suggesting that the President only knows how to take advantage of them. He specifically targeted Trump's claims about manufacturing, stating that the only thing Trump knows how to manufacture is what he referred to as 'bulls---'.

According to Walz, Trump's presidency has been marked by a series of broken promises, particularly in relation to the manufacturing sector. He claimed that Trump's policies have encouraged automakers to relocate from states like Michigan to anti-union states in order to cut costs and reduce worker wages.

Walz highlighted the endorsements received by Democratic vice-presidential candidate Kamala Harris from various unions in Michigan, including the Teamsters, laborers, operating engineers, and the UAW. He suggested that these endorsements reflect the support for Harris among working-class Americans.

In urging undecided voters to take action, Walz emphasized the importance of voting for Kamala Harris as the antidote to what he perceives as Trump's detrimental policies. He portrayed Harris as the best choice for addressing the concerns of working people and the middle class.

Walz's remarks underscore the ongoing political debate surrounding manufacturing, labor rights, and economic policies in the lead-up to the upcoming presidential election. The contrasting views presented by Walz and Trump reflect the divergent approaches to addressing the needs of American workers and the manufacturing industry.
