RE: So, the DEMOCRAT Union is demanding that Trump give in to the Democrats???

Yes, they never demand that Pelosi/Schumer give in to Trump ( who has the more reasonable stance ).

[Elsie]

Dang Nancy!

You never seemed to worry about a measly 5.4 billion dollars in the budget before now!

Chump Change it truly is.

[Salgak]

Pile of Sand. Sledgehammer. Go nuts. . .

In a former life, I worked for the state and was a member of a a government employee union-AFSCME-when the union says jump, members just ask how high...

The union strong-armed them into this phony “protest”-unlike when they go on strike, they will get their back pay as soon as the dust settles...

[Why are they protesting at the White House?? Nancy lives in San Fransisco.]

Best answer

[huckfillary]

I assume there was an equivalent demonstration on Capitol Hill./s

[shelterguy]

Yes, but the bills are not due someday but NOW.

Probably over 95% of them are hardcore democrats so tough schlitz.

[Bullish]

So, it’s hurting govt union workers? My care meter is on zero.

[SaveFerris]

LOL

During the shutdown, declare the Federsl Unions null and void.

All demonstrators are fired

[tet68]

Let them protest in front of the Congress where the
real obstruction is.

[Bell Bouy II]

Lets be realistic.......a phone call to any landlord bank ect explaining the situation and its temp nature I am sure would be dealt with in a decent way

[SaveFerris]

No kidding.

Let ‘em pound sand.

Give them the addresses of Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer.

That’s where the real problem is.

[DoodleDawg]

Ask them what they do when they are on strike?

They're forbidden from striking. Remember the air traffic controllers and Reagan?

[Alberta's Child]

You'd think these people would be salivating over the idea of $5+ billion in government spending for a wall.

Am I missing something?

[TangledUpInBlue]

Oh, well then I guess that’s all that really matters

[McGavin999]

Nancy can end the shutdown in a minute. All she has to do is approve the $5 Billion. It’s a small amount and if she cared about the working people she would end it.

[Mr. K]

Go protest at pelosi’s office or you’re just partisan hacks.

[Harpotoo]

Federal employees should no way in hell be unionized!
