Donald Trump has claimed nuclear weapons are the main danger facing the car manufacturing sector.

The former US president made his comments during a town hall in Michigan with Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Tuesday (17 September)

Trump was asked by an attendee about the largest threat to Michigan’s automotive future.

He responded: “We have one major threat...nuclear weapons.”

He continued: “We have countries that are hostile to us. They don't have to be. I got along great with Vladimir Putin, President Xi and Kim Jong-un.”
