WARREN, MI – President Donald Trump agreed to write the foreword for a retired Michigan autoworker’s forthcoming book during a visit to Warren commemorating his first 100 days in office. Brian Pannebecker, a Macomb County native and outspoken Trump fan who once organized a protest outside a Detroit Lions game against players who kneeled during the national anthem, announced the move at the April 29 rally. He’s the founder of Pannebecker, who is also the founder of Autoworkers for Trump, said he approached the president backstage with “a deal.
” “I said, I’ll agree to use your publishing company if you agree to write the foreword to my book,” Pannebecker said to the crowd at Macomb Community College’s Sports and Expo Center. Trump founded the conservative publishing house Winning Team Publishing in 2021 with Sergio Gor. Pannebecker said the book will detail his “political journey,” problems facing Michigan and conservative causes.
The retired autoworker also rallied the Tuesday crowd to applaud the president’s economic policies. Trump’s team called the first part of the president’s term the “most successful first 100 Days of any administration in history.” Trump’s visit comes the same day White House officials said he will sign an executive order to relax some of his 25% tariffs on autos and auto parts.
