Trump attributes challenges in the auto industry to the proliferation of electric vehicles, a stance in contrast to Biden's support for EVs.

Biden faces pressure from progressives to stand with UAW workers on the picket line, following visits by other political figures like Sen. Bernie Sanders.

Biden balances his close ties with organized labor and his desire to avoid potential national economic consequences from an extended strike.

The President supports UAW's call for higher pay, advocating that corporate profits should lead to improved contracts for the workers.

While Biden has backed UAW's demands, he has respected their wishes to handle negotiations with automakers independently, aiming to provide support without interference.
