‘Donald Trump is a scab,’ says UAW president Shawn Fain
The Hill ^ | 01/24/2024 | LAUREN IRWIN

United Auto Workers (UAW) President Shawn Fain slammed former President Trump in a Wednesday speech announcing the union’s endorsement of President Biden, calling the Republican front-runner “a scab.”

“Donald Trump is a scab,” Fain said, prompting applause from union members. “Donald Trump is a billionaire and that is who he represents. If Donald Trump ever worked in an auto plant, he wouldn’t be a UAW member, he would be a company man trying to squeeze the American worker.”

“Donald Trump stands against everything we stand for as a union, as a society,” Fain continued. “When you go back to our core issues, wages, retirement, health care and our time, that’s what this election is about.”

During union talks he wore an Eat the Rich shirt as any Communist in the world would be proud to wear. While personally benefiting from what’s left of free enterprise in the US. Had a smirk on his face for the closeups.

Union president might feel that way but I’m betting union members don’t.

This is why I will never, ever, ever buy an American car. These people fund tyrannical politicians.

My Mazda was completely assembled in Japan. My Lexus hybrid was built in Kyushu, Japan.

Will continue to buy cars built entirely in Japan.

I would agree. But the money given to politicians comes from the Union shakedowns of its members to the PACs that support Leftists.

Unions full of people who would have been labeled as Reagan Democrats need to find a way to stop putting progressive hacks in leadership positions.

We used to have a guy here who SUPPORTED labor unions. Thankfully he’s been silenced.

Says the man who points fingers about wealth, yet won’t release his net worth. But, he owns 230 million dollars of Ford stock. That’s just the one auto stock. No doubt he has many more. His salary is around 200k tho.
