Trump crowd members with union signs revealed to be non-union: report

Donald Trump has claimed to be greeting union members at his speech on Wednesday, but those with union signs who were approached reportedly admitted to not being members at all.

Trump held an address at an auto parts plant in Clinton Township, Michigan, on Wednesday night, although he received criticism from workers due to the fact that the plant in question is not unionized.

The Detroit News was present at the event, and reported on Trump saying that the UAW negotiations "don't mean as much as you think."

The outlet uncovered a surprise in the course of its reporting.

"About 400 to 500 Trump supporters were inside a Drake Enterprises facility for the speech. Drake Enterprises employs about 150 people, and the UAW doesn't represent its workforce. It wasn't clear how many auto workers were in the crowd for the speech, which was targeted at them, The Detroit News wrote Wednesday. "One individual in the crowd who held a sign that said 'union members for Trump,' acknowledged that she wasn't a union member when approached by a Detroit News reporter after the event. Another person with a sign that read 'auto workers for Trump' said he wasn't an auto worker when asked for an interview. Both people didn't provide their names."
