President Trump visits Michigan to champion auto industry and endorse Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers
President Trump delivered a campaign-style speech at a General Motors facility in Milford, Michigan, to bolster the state's auto industry and promote Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers. During the address, the administration announced that it recently ordered 250 Cadillac Escalades for the presidential motorcade, while President Trump praised his tariff policies for strengthening domestic manufacturing. President Trump criticized the United Auto Workers union for endorsing Democratic candidates, claiming the industry would have struggled without his leadership. He also mocked Democratic opponents as "communists" and highlighted the success of the Wolverine State's manufacturing sector. The visit served as a platform to boost Mike Rogers, who is running unopposed for the Republican nomination. Rogers pledged to support the administration's SAVE America Act, a bill aimed at overhauling federal voting procedures. The speech was punctuated by several disruptions from rioters, including a group protesting against data centers, who were escorted out by security.
