Union bosses, closely tied to the Democrat Party, say American union workers sticking with President Trump in 2020 and his economic nationalist agenda is “a serious problem” for them.
A report by the Wall Street Journal reveals how union bosses and Democrats are looking to peel off Trump’s support from American union workers who back his agenda, where most recently he has demanded multinational corporations move their production in China to the U.S.
The Journal reports:
“It’s a serious problem for us,” said Alan Netland, president of the North East Area Labor Council in Duluth, Minn., which represents 40,000 union members. “People may say, ‘I voted Republican and the world didn’t fall in, so maybe I better keep doing that.’”
Vice President of the United Mine Workers of America in Uniontown, Pennsylvania, Chuck Knissel said based on the current 2020 Democrats running for president, it will be difficult to get union workers to vote for anyone other than Trump.
“It’s going to be tough to get our members to vote for a Democrat,” Knissel told the Journal.

“Breaking union bosses’ legs would be almost as low IQ as the union bosses themselves.”
I’d go all out RICO on the union bosses and tie in conspiracy with the local rat politician.
The union bosses are lining their pockets with dues and pension funds—that is a metaphysical certainty.
All it takes is a prosecutor who wants to take them on...
You’d almost think that the very concept of a union would be that the leaders REPRESENT their workers.
It’s now been exposed that they don’t...so whom do they really represent?
Short of an economic collapse or another black swan event, there is ZERO chance for the democrats, regardless of who their nominee winds up being, of taking the White House.
Their absolute high water mark is about 15 states and DC.. and depending on how whackadoo a nominee they eventually put up, they could wind up not even able to reach double digits plus DC.
Trump will win re-election by the largest margin since Reagan.
The dems are repeating 1972, with the economics of 1984... There is ZERO path to the White House for them.
The only question about 2020, short of a black swan event, is just how big Trump’s coattails will be.
That is quite an account of your father. Cannot imagine being imprisoned for four years by the Japs.
Thug unionism is very much alive. Learn as much as you can about Richard Trumka, head of the AFL-CIO for the last ten years.
“What’s good for the unions is what’s good for America!”
Yeah, right.
Sounds like these unions need leadership that’s more in line with the views of the rank and file.
Yea, lie that will happen.

That’s a false belief. The worker in most cases applies for and gets the job, but is automatically put into the union. Saw this first hand with a family member. He was an apprentice and relied on the “hall” to get work for him. The “hall” very seldom called. Waste of time and effort if you ask me.
Good on you! I’v actually had a union member who really liked a candidate for office tell me that he couldn’t vote for him because his union said not to!

Face it, union bosses.
You are just the latest set of old white guys that the Democrat Party is throwing under the bus. They don’t NEED you anymore.
Their plan is to win future elections Obama-style, by activating SJW’s of color.
If your analysis is correct the Deep State must realize that they only have ONE option to prevent Trump from completing the swamp drain.
Interesting times.
My union is no different from my employer.
They both exist to make money and they both do what’s best for them and not necessarily for me.
The union just has its own special area of law carved out that it gets to operate under.
I learned that first hand many years ago.
I don’t hate the union but I’m not in love with them either. Same with my employer.
It must have been a Revelation to a Democrat voter. "You mean they lied?"
and If you're not a backer of the BM and BA the “HALL” very seldom calls...
Trust me...Been there done that..
Off topic but Welcome home Brother..,Camp Enari 67-68-69....D Troop 1st/10th Air Cav “Shamrocks”...Hensel Air field and the Hart Helipad were named after 2 fellow “Shamrocks”
GOD BLESS!
Please. That’s ancient history.
This is the age of public awakening. And the public will not go easy on union bosses.
Why would they?
Keep in mind that hiding their methods from public knowledge is the only way these criminals have been able to play their little games.
When they’re facing full public awareness (not just innuendo, but full public awareness), these psychopaths will flip from tyrant to crybaby before you can say Frank Nitti.
You are right. I see them riding their union Bosses out of town tarred and feathered every day. And as a bonus, the awakened public put Bill Clinton in the White House for 8 years. And to demonstrate that was no fluke, they put obama in the White House for 8 years. You have to hand it to an awakened public.
Your sarcasm indicates you think the public is not yet aware of the massive deception perpetrated by criminal politicians and other deep staters.
I agree that there is uncertainty with regard to how many of the public have become aware. I believe the number is far greater, especially since 2016 when many democrats saw what Hillary did to Bernie.
But the most important point here is: your opinion that the public isn’t aware shows that you agree the entire deep state game hinges on keeping the public ignorant.
