More than 300,000 workers are planning to walk out of their jobs in protest of President Trump on International Workers Day, according to a new report.

The report by Buzzfeed News said that "350,000 service workers plan to strike on May 1, a traditional day for labor activism across the world, in the most direct attempt yet by organized labor to capture the energy from a resurgent wave of activism across the country since the election of Donald Trump."

The Service Employees International Union, which endorsed Democrat Hillary Clinton for president back in 2015, will be a large component of the protest.

Trumps preemptive response should be:

“We’ll take note of who is interested in participating in my job creating agenda and who is not.”

In Californicator land, it seems like these commies are marching, protesting and striking all the time. In cities of all sizes.

Ironic that in communist countries, going on strike is usually punished by firing squad.

A lot of cheap nursing homes paid for by SS and Medicare/Medicaid will find themselves underserved for the day.

Unions are in bed with the democrats. Democrats pass legislation favoring unions, and unions send money to democrats. Workers do not benefit.

It’s a Monday, and since most of these jerks have to work weekends, it won’t even be a three-day weekend for them.

Good!

Go ahead and go on strike, you morons!

That, ahem, ‘wave you intend to catch’, just might turn out to be the tsunami that will swamp over you.

America, at its heart, truly has no’isms’. What it has, and what unions have come to stifle, is FREEDOM.

I am going to exercise my freedom, and call out two things:
1. Unions are batspit crazy for Communists, i.e., hillary and bernie;
2. Do not allow the top of the Dutch door to stop you from ducking the swing of the bottom door on your butt!

More proof that libs don’t care about anything but themselves. The elderly patients and disabled will pay the price.

Libs talk the talk but don’t walk the walk.

What does “anti-Trump” mean?

(Other than anti-American?)
