The United Auto Workersā€™ decision to endorseĀ Kamala Harrisā€™ presidential run has apparently gotten under the skin of Donald Trump, who has responded by insulting the unionā€™s leader as ā€œa stupid personā€.

ā€¦

Trumpā€™s remarks allude to the harsh 100% tariff he hasĀ proposedĀ on imported cars. Economists haveĀ warnedĀ that such a tariff would raise product costs for Americans, but Trump has insisted on it, saying it reflects how he would prioritize the auto industry if returned to White House in Novemberā€™s election.

ā€¦

Fain and the UAW ā€“ one of the USā€™s largest and most diverse labor unions ā€“ nonetheless gave their coveted endorsement to the vice-president,Ā sayingĀ in a statement that Harris had a ā€œproven track record of delivering for the working classā€.

      TY! Youā€™d think I couldnā€™t use translation software. I like this phrase as it calls into question #45ā€™s upbringing, his parents, etc, and yet avoids using profanity.
