"In a statement released in advance of his appearance on MSNBC's "Hardball" with Chris Matthews, Williams said the former secretary of state "understands our issues on trade, understands the complexities of multinational economies and supports American workers, their families and communities.”

The Detroit Free Press also reports that on an internal UAW poll 28% said they would vote for Trump.

The UAW has a history of sitting on the fence when the Democratic nomination is contested. In 2008 it didn't endorse then-Sen. Barack Obama until mid-June, about the same time that then-Sen. Hillary Clinton conceded to Obama. ... Today it has about 412,000 active members, and more than 1 million retirees.
