The one-term president spoke before 2,500 supporters at the Oakland County GOP’s Lincoln Day Dinner, where he was honored by the party as “Man of the Decade.”
During the event, he told the crowd that electric vehicles would result in the “destruction” of the state’s traditional auto industry.
It came a day after he told a crowd of evangelicals on Saturday that the federal government had a “significant role” in restricting access to abortion as he once again took credit for the reversal. Roe v. Wade.
But the former president did not detail his proposal for national restrictions on abortion, in contrast to his 2024 opponent Mike Pence, who supports the prohibition of care in the country at 15 weeks of pregnancy.
Mr Trump’s remarks at a Faith & Freedom Coalition conference in Washington DC came on the one-year anniversary of the US Supreme Court’s decision to revoke constitutional protections for abortion. Although he repeatedly credited the decision, he dodged questions about whether he would support a national ban if Republican lawmakers were able to pass one in Congress.
In his remarks, he also railed against the criminal charges against him, as reported by The New York Times It is known that his presidential campaign diverted many of the funds obtained by Mr.

Trump diverted large amounts of campaign cash to fund used to cover legal fees, report finds
Trump’s campaign has pushed much of the money raised for his 2024 presidential bid by a political action committee to cover his legal fees, as the former president faces multiple accusations and investigation in multiple jurisdictions in at least three states.
Of every dollar raised for his online campaign since its launch in November, 99 cents have gone to the campaign while one cent has gone to the PAC Save America.
But he appears to have adjusted that split, sending 90 percent of his campaign donations with the other 10 percent to Save America — a move that may have boosted his PAC by at least $1.5 million, according to The New York Times.
Save America spent $1.9 million in identified legal costs in the first half of 2022, according to The Times. That spending rose to $14.6 million in the second half of last year, according to records reviewed by the newspaper.
