In the wake of Trump’s visit, Bob Bartels, a manager for Steamfitters Local 638 union, appeared on Fox News’s Fox & Friends to state that he would be supporting Trump in the election despite being a lifelong Democrat. Bartels added that he and other people in his union are tired of the price of groceries, rising crime, and illegal immigration and said his members are choosing Trump over Biden 3-1, according to an internal poll.

Trump made his visit to the construction site ahead of his court appearance on Thursday, which is continuing his hush money trial. The former president is facing 34 counts of falsifying business records to hide an alleged hush money payment to former pornography film actress Stormy Daniels in 2016.
Also on Thursday, the Supreme Court will consider whether Trump can enjoy any immunity against the federal charges he faces. Trump has argued that former presidents can have broad immunity from criminal charges and that any finding to the contrary would “incapacitate every future president,” according to his attorneys.
