Corey Barsky was more than a little miffed Tuesday night when he saw a giant Biden-Harris logo projected on the façade of the towering Cathedral of Learning on the University of Pittsburgh’s Oakland campus.

Barsky, who is vice chair of the Pitt College Republicans, said the projection that included the United Steelworkers logo and a line urging viewers to “Plan to Vote” was visible for nearly two hours. He said the display seemed out of line with policies the university invoked this month when it denied his group’s request to plant small American flags around the Cathedral lawn to mark the 19th anniversary of 9/11.

Weird how the USW would encourage voting against the guy who levied steel tariffs on a number of countries in order to save the industry here. It’s almost like they don’t represent steel workers.

United Steel Workers, vote for Biden so he can ship the rest of your jobs overseas!

Amazing how many institutions, having been taken over by leftists, now work against their members.

This can be easily corrected by displayzing a Trump/Pence sign for an equal amount of time.

USW owns a building downtown.

Trump supporters can buy a high-power projector too.

Just sayin’...

Are there any colleges/universities worth saving after President Trump gets elected again this November?

Can these cesspools of left wing garbage survive without federal funding?

In kind contributions. Also, if the property owners did not give approval, they should sue the union.

The membership of USW will vote for Trump and not listen to the leadership.

Can you make steel without coal/coke?

USW has its members interest at heart.
