From CNBC
The head of the United Auto Workers has become an unexpected ally for President Donald Trump’s plans for North American tariffs.

UAW President Shawn Fain, who was boisterous about his disdain for Trump during the president’s campaign, is openly voicing approval of the tariffs, which include 25% levies on automobiles and supporting parts.

“Tariffs are an attempt to stop the bleeding from the hemorrhaging of jobs in America for the last 33 years,” Fain said Sunday on ABC News’ “This Week,” referring to the implementation of the North American Free Trade Agreement in 1992. “Tariffs aren’t the end solution, but they are a huge factor in creating, fixing the problem.”

He thinks making US cars will increase in price, will increase the number of US jobs?

He thinks that if the US has to make a choice between entirely making a car cheaper in Mexico or Canada rather than in the US, they are going to change the latter?

He's living in the 1980s.
