CNN —The United Auto Workers union on Tuesday filed federal labor charges against former President Donald Trump and Tesla CEO Elon Musk for threatening to intimidate workers who go on strike.
Trump called Musk “the cutter,” and praised Musk for his anti-union stances.
“Both Trump and Musk want working class people to sit down and shut up, and they laugh about it openly.
But it’s not clear that Trump was referencing any specific workers Musk fired for organizing against his company.
Harris’ campaign circulated the clip of Trump and Musk, saying: “Trump praises billionaire Elon Musk for firing workers who were striking for better pay and working conditions.”
