Former President Donald Trump will speak in Detroit to current and former members of the autoworkers union on Sept. 27, the day of the second Republican primary debate, according to three people familiar with the plan.
The news of the trip comes days after autoworkers in Michigan, Missouri and Ohio began strikes targeting plants run by Big Three car manufacturers. The New York Times first reported Trump’s plans.
This will be the second time Trump, the current front-runner in the GOP race, decides to forgo a 2024 presidential debate. The former president skipped the first debate in August and instead sat for an interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson.
The GOP debate will be held at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute in Simi Valley, Calif.
