Shawn Fain, the president of the United Auto Workers Union (UAW) has been very critical of Trump in the past. In fact, as you may remember, Fain went so far as to endorse Kamala Harris in the 2024 election.
He is singing a very different tune now.
In the video below, Fain praises the Trump administration for addressing unfair trade laws, which he says have “destroyed the American working class.”
That’s quite a switch, isn’t it? Watch:
