that's why the teamsters, i think, support me. i don't know if the top people will support me, we have to find that out. within the union itself, i have tremendous support. reporter: did they offer endorsement? mr. trump: they never give it. i felt -- we have a good shot, i think they like what i do. they never had better -- a better four years than they had during the trump administration. i can say that for a lot of business a lot of people. african-american, asian american, hispanic american. they had the best four years they've ever had. every one of them. reporter: president biden last week, i know you called it a joke, i'm just curious is that something to expect? mr. trump: i think the u.a.w. made a terrible decision. by allowing electric cars. they will be made in china i'm not going to allow all electric cars. i'm going to have all kinds of cars. the electric mandate is a disaster they don't go far enough they cost too much we don't have the materials to make them but china does. you've heard me say it 100 times. i would

i don't support any other union than the teamsters union. that's why, the next several weeks, several months, we will be doing that due diligence. we can revisit that question. there is no doubt about there's union support for president trump. and there is always union support for president biden. regardless, president biden has done a lot of good work for union members. he fixed 300 pension funds that were on the verge of being insolvent, created a lot of jobs, chips act a lot of issues , important to us. but what i've stated before, what you have done in the past doesn't guarantee us a future with us. are you going to support our issues in our time of need? are you going to step up and do" what's right by working people in the country? >> you endorsed biden in august of 2021. do you -- >> historically, theandidates have endorsed after their respective conventions. we've got a great executive board. the faster we get president biden in here and the more questions we get answered from both candidates with strong commitments, the endorsement

and look, i don't represent any other unions, but the teamsters union. that is why in the next several weeks, several months, we will be doing their due diligence and we can revisit that question. there's no there's no doubt about there is union support for president trump. and there's of all always union support for president biden. look, regardless, president biden has done a lot of good work for union members and he fixed 300 pension funds that were on the verge of being insolvent, create a lot of jobs, chip stock and a lot of issues that are important to us. but like i've stated before. what you've done in the past doesn't guarantee you a future with us. we want to know what you going to do for our members moving forward. you're going to support our issues and in time of need, you're going to step up and do what's right by working people in this country. you endorsed in august 2020. do you think that's the same that historically the teamsters have always endorsed candidates after their respective conventions? we've got a great executive board. the fa

we had a very productive meeting with a lot of teamster representatives upstairs. >> teamster said theyanted to sit down with nikki haley. [indiscernible] mr. trump: she is gone at 12%. if they want to waste their time, they can do that. >> president biden said he is going to respond. if you are the -- if you were in the white house, would you respond? mr. trump: it would not have happened. he would not have the attack on israel, he would not have the attack on ukraine, you would not have inflation that is destroying our country. the damage done already by inflation has beenowhile it mayp 30%. prices are up higher than they ago. you would not have had any of that. he would not have attacks on -- you would not have had attacks. i knocked out isis, we took over 100% of the isis caliphate. we pulled our troops out, nobody has done what i did. people would not have attacked. he would not have done it against me. we used to talk about ukraine, it was the apple of his eye read he would not have done it. israel would have never been attacked. china would not be talking about taiwan. all these

sean o'brien national brotherhood of teamsters. >> what's the question? it went fine. i mean, it's been like the process with don over the past five meetings, we've got specific questions and issues. more importantly, we have rank and file members that are out there working in trenches every single day that had an opportunity to present questions as in the past with the candidates. a lot of due diligence that need to be done and a lot of boxes would be checked. a long way to go before we make a decision. >> president biden has committed -- hasn't committed a date as of yet. >> and what was the-- what direction-- >> she hasn't reached back out to us at all. so we're getting no reaction as of this point. yeah, no, it's not surprising at all. she's publicly stated that, you know, she doesn't support unions. i think in one press conference she said, you know, the reason why boeing chose to go to south carolina was because, you know, there wasn't a strong union presence and she supports that. it doesn't surprise us. >> the issues you've had with the former president's recor

so, dan, would it matter if trump won the teamsters' endorsement?ink it would be, yeah, it'd be a big deal with joe biden calling himself the most pro-union president in history, if the them stares went to donald trump, that would be a problem -- the teamsters went to donald trump, that would be a problem. but they're smart, they've put themselves in play, and trump wants to close the border. that's a little bit surprising, i think, from the teamster president does not agree that we should be closing the border. i be i think what he's -- but i think what he's doing is raising the bidding on what he can get from trump in return for his endorsement. i think nikki haley has put her finger on it. how far is donald trumping willing to move -- trump willing to move into the policy set that the unions are in favor of such as pushing back against right to work laws to get their endorsement? is he going to, trump going to try to absorb joe biden's union support by absorb ising the democrats' union political position? paul: these are the same teamsters trying
