“I’m not worried about a strike,” Biden said ahead of a speech in Philadelphia celebrating Labor Day. “I don’t think it’s going to happen.”
Fain, Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-Mich.) and others were marching in a Labor Day parade in Detroit when they learned of Biden’s comment. Dingell would later tell Fain that she called longtime Biden adviser Steve Ricchetti and screamed at him over the comment, according to a person familiar with the talk and granted anonymity to discuss details. “Are you out of your f---ing minds?” Dingell said, per the person.
Biden’s comments also irked some local labor officials. Garry Quirk, president of the UAW Local 685 in Kokomo, Ind., who came up through the local labor ranks with Fain in his hometown, said he also was frustrated by Biden’s Labor Day prediction. “When I heard that, I wanted to know where he heard it from,” Quirk said Friday, wondering if it originated from the Big Three.

Still good for Biden. He can say that he predicted there wouldn't be a strike but he didn't thought automaker companies wouldn't negociate in good faith
