Video of Mack Trucks employee insulting Biden isn’t authentic

"Biden… is not liked by the blue collar workers," reads the description of a TikTok video that’s being shared on Facebook. 

In the clip, President Joe Biden approaches a man in front of a truck who appears to tell Biden he has "no business driving this truck." 

"We took a vote and we’re all in agreement that you can’t drive anything besides the country into the ground," the man appears to say.

The video is authentic, but the audio isn’t. 

The clip was taken from Biden’s July visit to a Mack Trucks manufacturing facility in Pennsylvania. 

It starts around the 5:25 mark of this C-SPAN video. Biden asks if he can open the door to the truck and the man politely says that they don’t have the keys.
