Outside the Trump rally, small groups of Trump supporters waived flags along a main road, while closer to the factory where the former president will speak was a small drumline with Trump supporters waiving flags nearby.
"Auto Workers for Trump" and "Union Members for Trump" signs were being handed out to attendees and MAGA hats were prevalent in the largely white, older male crowd.
Brian Pannebecker, a retired auto worker who runs a Facebook group called "Auto Workers for Trump, said he assisted in getting current and retired auto workers to the event for the Trump campaign and expects more than 200 people at the event.
The venue where Trump will speak is an auto parts production facility, which allows little room for the stage or a large audience.
Hundreds of chairs were set up in front of where Trump will speak, with bleachers meant for auto workers on the far left and far right of the stage.
