Sounds like he lying and calling members voting for Biden idiots. IF a majority of members were voting Trump the UAW would endorse Trump. He is also implying that the other UAW members are voting against their paychecks. Only an idiot or saint would vote against their self interest. I would call him an idiot but it is clear he wouldn’t be affected by any Trump crack down on workers.

UAW President Shawn Fain has endorsed Genocide Joe multiple times and has done a couple of interviews saying that he supports his administration.

The people on top vs. the rank and file do not reflect each other, that is shown in our politics and in the corporate world.

The wealthy class and their lackeys vs. the working class, many polls are done on what they want, but the people in power do not do what the people want.
