Trump Cheering Anti-Union Tactics in Musk Interview: Obama-Era Labor Economist Warns, 'I'm No Campaign Manager But This Doesn't Seem Like A Good Strategy'
Betsey Stevenson, the Obama-era chief economist at the Department of Labor, expressed her concerns over Donald Trump's Tuesday interaction with Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk on X. Trump had called Musk "the greatest cutter" for alleged attempts at stifling workers' unionizing efforts.
What Happened: Stevenson took to X to share her thoughts on Trump's reaction to Musk's controversial move. "I'm still thinking about Trump cackling over Musk firing striking workers. I'm no campaign manager but this doesn't seem like a good strategy," she tweeted.
Why It Matters: This incident has sparked significant controversy. The United Auto Workers (UAW) has filed federal labor charges against both Trump and Musk for their public comments, as detailed in another Benzinga piece.
These charges follow a resurgence of organized labor in the U.S., with workers growing increasingly discontented with their treatment by major corporations. UAW President Shawn Fain has been a vocal critic of Musk, describing him as the "epitome of everything that's wrong with this world."

何があったのか:スティーブンソンは、トランプのマスクの物議を醸す動きへの反応について、自分の考えを共有するために X を利用しました。「私はまだマスクによるストライキ中の労働者の解雇について笑い声を上げるトランプについて考えています。私はキャンペーンマネージャーではありませんが、これは良い戦略のようには思えません。」と彼女はツイートしました。
