Welcome to the Tudor Dixon podcast. I am excited today because we have the founder of Auto Workers for Trump with us.

He is a retired UAW member. And obviously we want to talk about what happened. I'm in Michigan. As you know, Michigan was declared for Donald Trump.

And so we want to talk to Brian. Brian Panna Becker here with us today. Thank you so much

for joining me. Glad to be here. Absolutely. So for people who don't know you, they probably

actually do know you because oftentimes Donald Trump would pull you up on stage during a rally

and say, hey, Brian, come and talk to us about what's going on. And it seemed like you had an inside track on what was actually happening with the UAW workers,

even though we were hearing from Sean Fane, who is the leader of the union saying, oh,

Trump is a scab.

Nobody's going to vote for him.

What's your opinion of what really happened?

Well, I do have an inside track because I actually

talked to the people out on the shop floor. Tudor, ever since Memorial Day this summer,

we've been holding a Trump rally outside the UAW parking lot where all the hourly people park,

and we timed it so we would be there at shift

change when the biggest shift group of people would be coming out, which is a day shift.

They get off typically around 1, 1.30, 2 o'clock, 2.30.

So we would set up about noon and stay there till 3 or 3.30.

So we'd also catch some of the afternoon shift people coming in.

And our main purpose for being there was twofold to educate and to motivate the hourly workers

at the auto plants, whether it was Ford, Chrysler, or General Motors,

to vote for Donald Trump. And then the folks that weren't so sure that that was in their best

interests, they were listening maybe to Sean Fain's empty endorsement. We would try to educate them.
