    United Auto Workers member Dawnya Ferdinansen on Wednesday called out former President Donald Trump after he made belittling comments about her profession.

    In a video posted by the United Auto Workers' Twitter account, Ferdinansen took issue with Trump claiming that American autoworkers who work for foreign car manufacturers don't really build cars but rather "take them out of a box and assemble them."

    "We could have our child do it," Trump said of the work.

    "I'm making this video in response to Trump's statement that autoworkers just 'assemble parts,' out of a box," she said. "I challenge you, Trump, to one full 12-hour day in any auto assembly plant. I want to see you assemble parts out of a box for 12 hours! Until you accept and complete this challenge, until you actually work a manual labor job, you keep the name of the UAW out of your mouth!"

    Trump has tried courting union workers for endorsements this year, although the United Auto Workers, led by Shawn Fain, have been particularly resistant to his overtures.
