"With the President's unrealistic projection for electric vehicle sales in the future, 67 percent by the year 2032, affecting the profitability of these [automotive] plants is going to take dollars away from auto workers. They approximate formulas is about $1,000 per auto worker for $1 billion for the auto makers. If penalties are levied on the auto makers, then this will take money away from the autoworkers. Is the President aware that he's literally taking money away from UAW workers by impugning their bonuses?"
