But Jeff Hester of Tennessee thinks union bosses are going to be shocked on election day. He sees a big disconnect between what union leaders are saying and how rank-and-file members feel....
Agreed. Go Trump, GO!
Back in 2000, I had a neighbor who told me she was voting for Gore because her husband’s company told the employees to vote for Gore. I told her that I thought that was illegal. She demurred, but we were never again good friends after that.
It sems to me that he really only needs a percentage of the union vote and he only needs that percentage to come from a few urban areas in a few battleground states. The same for African Americans and Hispanics.
there are MILLIONS of union members who will vote for Mr. Trump
especially since they can see what the D policies have done to their jobs
also, remember the millions more union members who are now UNEMPLOYED due to Obama/Hillary/Kerry/D party constant attacks on employment and jobs in America
Trumka is the worst labor leader in American history.
This guy is for amnesty?
American immigration laws were WRITTEN by Gompers and his union.
Can you imagine a union leader in favor of illegals, H1Bs, and mass immigration in general?
Previous generations would have literally buried this rat long ago. He’s on a mad jihad to deprive Americans of their jobs.
Bret Bair said this afternoon on Fox that he had been talking to some of the union people who helped set up and maintain the convention hall for the DNC in Philly, and about seventy-five to eighty percent of them confessed they were voting for Trump - they didn’t want to be quoted because their union was endorsing the ‘rats and they were afraid of retribution (like maybe jobs drying up for them) - welcome to Democrats’ Amerika.....
Union members are welfare beggars by nature: they rely on the force of government to tell private property owners how they will employ their own private property. The are socialistic/communistic/liberal/democrat to their very core. The very existence of a union is anti-American and pro-communist in every conceivable fashion.
I would not doubt it. One of the biggest Trump supporters I know is a union local president and he makes no bones about it. Of course, he’s probably the only conservative local president in the state. Anyone with any intelligence can see what illegal immigration is doing to the job market in an already depressed economy while at the same time their regional and national officers work against the locals best interests.
I’ve never been a union member but I’ve worked and lived around them.
Imo, labor unions, by design, are incapable of thinking beyond the bottom of their own bellies. Labor unions price themselves out of the market on a regular basis and can’t figure out why they’re decaying in membership.
Don’t ever expect rational reasoning from a labor union’s leadership or rank and file.
It’s not “the union vote”, it’s the “blue collar private sector vote”.
Increasing numbers of working class people are figuring out that unions are irrelevant, if the jobs all go overseas.
I was talking to a couple of Teamster truckers this week. Both voting for DT.
Unions will mostly give to rats. But I think most rank and file members are voting Trump. From all the hands I have spoken with and know, that’s what’s going down.
This is going to be the year that people say one thing in their social circle and do another one in the voting booth. I just know it in my guy that union guys, law enforcement, all of it is going to go overwhelmingly to Trump.
I hope Trump addresses the Polish worker thing. This is what I hear about from dems and there are also independents who have been inundated with the story of how DT brought in Polish workers and paid them 5$ an hour or even nothing. One version says that he didn’t pay them at all, but viciously had them deported without pay as soon as the work was done. Please Mr. Trump spend time addressing this in a meaningful, understandable way. Say it over and over for a while because this is where the dems have many people in there choke hold.
