Sharrod Brown: Trump's claims are 'a slap in the face' to auto workers

WASHINGTON – Sen. Sherrod Brown said President Donald Trump’s claim Monday that automotive companies are opening up new plants in Ohio is “a slap in the face” to 1,600 workers in northeast Ohio losing their jobs next month with the closure of General Motors’ Lordstown plant.

Speaking at the White House Monday to Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and the nation’s governors, Trump claimed that “we have car companies opening up in Michigan and Ohio and Pennsylvania and so many other places.? ...

The Associated Press fact-checked similar claims by Trump and found them untrue.

Brown said Trump “makes lots of big promises but has failed to stand up for auto workers time and time again. His comments are a slap in the face to Lordstown workers.”
