President Joe Biden went to Michigan today to join a group of striking autoworkers on a picket line, a historic gesture of support to a labor union by a sitting President. Meanwhile, Trump plans to go to a non-union plant in a gesture of support for overpaid CEOs.

"Let's get back to winning solidarity for all of our members and economic and social justice for all of our members," one auto worker said into a bullhorn.

"Let me say it many times," the President said. "Wall Street didn't build the country; the middle class built the country."

"Unions built the middle class," he continued. "That's a fact. So let's keep going."

"You deserve what you've earned, and you've earned a hell of a lot more than you're getting paid now," Biden added.

Twitter went crazy.

This is who we voted for. I couldn't be prouder.
