The Ohio factory had become a political issue in a state that was critical to Trump's 2016 election.
President Donald Trump took to Twitter on Wednesday to scoop General Motors on the news that the carmaker would sell its Lordstown Assembly plant in Ohio to electric truckmaker Workhorse.
Lordstown Assembly was one of several facilities that were"unallocated" last year — auto-industry parlance for ending production, with no new vehicles planned for the factory. "GREAT NEWS FOR OHIO!" Trump tweeted."Just spoke to Mary Barra, CEO of General Motors, who informed me that, subject to a UAW agreement etc., GM will be selling their beautiful Lordstown Plant to Workhorse, where they plan to build Electric Trucks."
