The headlines seem reasonably accurate based on that direct quote.

Uh, huh. You realize he was talking about...the auto industry and that the "bloodbath" referred to the loss of jobs, right?

Looking at my sources, and reading beyond the headlines, it was -mostly- in the context of the auto industry, though apparently the "that will be the least of it" addition implies a larger scope than just autos. But we can't really know what he meant by that because he didn't elaborate (at least not that I could find in a few minutes of googling).

Uh, huh. NBC and other deliberately phrased their headlines to make it seem like a nationwide January 6th would be in the offing if he loses. That's beyond dishonest and more into the territory of Insane.

A better way to phrase it: "Trump says there will be a bloodbath of jobs in the auto industry if Biden wins"

...but that wouldn't fit the narrative.
