Trump is a good Executive. For the long term health of federal employees you can’t waste money on other things. If you care about federal employees you want to make sure the government is solvent

Makes sense.

Can’t have a union without workers to pay dues. Can’t have workers without available jobs to fill. Can’t have available jobs to fill without business being transacted.

I’d support the guy who has a solid track record of creating good paying jobs.

They know TRUMP has mastered the “Art of the Deal.”

Kiss of death? Government employee unions are the last group that should be endorsing a candidate who will make the necessary changes for this country. Getting rid of the government unions and “traditions” should be one of the early steps to fix things. I wonder if they are trying to hurt his chances to win straight up.

Good move for them! Policy of not being able to fire incompetent, corrupt, and felonious employees will continue! Always best for them to support the liberal with the best chance of winning!

“Also, their concerns are far more specific than the general pool of unionized government workers. Their job is entirely focused on securing the border and it’s obviously one of the marquee issues which Trump has focused on from the moment he announced his candidacy.”

One wonders if they also saw that increased enforcement would result in higher wages, promotions, and a larger union?

This does sound odd if they expected Donald to reduce the size of government. Just about any politician would at least do it with ridiculously nice golden parachutes if they had to do it at all.

True... staffing this function would be a big jobs draw for them. Someone has to get the money that Donald will “make Mexico pay.”

So what if it does? Everybody but the "Open Borders" lunatic elite fringe and their border crashing constituency understands that increased enforcement is necessary.

That should answer the questions of whether or not Donald is a true conservative and if he is the change agent we need in DC.

One union, however, made a different choice this week, endorsing Manhattan business mogul Donald Trump. (Keeping in mind that this decision was made before the tumultuous events of the past 48 hours.)

...

All I’ve seen is the media being corrupt and dishonest over the past 48 hours. Actually, they are that way all the time.

It’s the Border Patrol Union—the guys on the front line. They know which candidate is serious about taking back America’s sovereignty.

Now there is a real editorial effort to play down an issue.

Let write that one correctly...

You have been fooled by the headline it seems - which was obviously the intent of the headline writers.

Do you know what Federal employee union endorsed Trump?

“They know a HUGE government guy when they see one.”

***The National Border Patrol Council gave Trump its first-ever endorsement of a presidential candidate***

Common sense says federal employee unions are not going to be abolished

The man or woman who says they will do so is blowing smoke
