The Michigan Democratic Party released the following statement on behalf of spokesman Christian Slater on Ivanka Trump’s upcoming Warren event. Almost four years ago, Trump promised Warren voters, “if I’m reelected, you won’t lose one plant,” but since then Michigan manufacturing has been devastated by Trump’s erratic leadership with plants closing across the state.
“Ivanka can try to spin Michigan voters all she wants, but nothing will cover for the fact that Donald Trump has failed our state. After Trump’s disastrous COVID-19 response, Michigan has seen over 100,000 COVID-19 cases, an unemployment rate that has doubled since March, and no plan to put an end to the crisis. Four years ago, Donald Trump promised Warren voters, ‘you won’t lose one plant,’ but since then his failed leadership has tanked Michigan’s economy and shuttered factories throughout our state. Ivanka’s empty promises can’t change that fact.”
