Walz accused Trump of \u200bbeing \u2063disconnected from the realities \u2062faced by autoworkers, following controversial remarks Trump made about the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/bidens-climate-agenda-wont-replace-jobs-it-seeks-to-kill-separate-ap-wapo-fact-checks-suggest\/\" title=\"Biden\u2019s Climate Agenda Won\u2019t Replace Jobs It Seeks To Kill, Separate AP, WaPo Fact-Checks Suggest\">auto industry<\/a>. He claimed that Trump \u200clacks genuine understanding of manufacturing, stating, \u201cThe only \u200dthing he knows is how\u200b to manufacture is bulls***,\u201d and voiced that \u200cTrump\u2019s comments belittled the work of\u200d American autoworkers.
