Former President Trump is vowing to end the “madness” of the Biden administration’s push for electric vehicles — a likely appeal to voters in the swing state of Michigan. In a pair of Truth Social …

In a pair of Truth Social posts Monday evening, Trump took aim at the electric vehicle industry and President Biden’s push for more electric vehicles. With this opposition to electric vehicles, Trump is likely trying to persuade Michigan voters to support him over Biden, who carried the swing state in 2020.

The Biden administration has pushed to boost electric car sales, with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) predicting that two-thirds of new car sales could be electric by 2032 under a new proposal released by the administration earlier this year. Last week, the Energy Department announced plans to invest $12 billion into converting auto manufacturing facilities into plants for hybrid and electric vehicles.

Trump also took aim at Shawn Fain, the president of the United Auto Workers, for supporting the Biden administration’s latest investment into electric vehicles.

    I thought the same before Trump was elected. I thought to myself, it won’t be good but it won’t be worse, and boy was I proven wrong.

    There are deep systemic flaws in America that are not being addressed. I’m sure you see them too. But things got worse under Trump, just look at the steps backwards in environmental protection, trans rights and women’s rights. To say it doesn’t matter is ignoring the harm done to many communities.

    It’s okay to want a better candidate, but to paint both sides as no different is reckless and petulant.
