UAW president Shawn Fain calls Trump-Vance "two lap dogs for the billionaire class who only serve themselves."


** 'Trump's a Scab' Chants Ring Out at DNC as Shawn Fain Rips Republican Nominee

Tim Walz.

"For the UAW and for working-class people everywhere, this election comes down to one question: Which side are you on?" said Fain.
