President Joe Biden reacted to the news of the death of AFL-CIO Union President Richard Trumka on Thursday at the White House, calling him a “very close friend.”
“He was more than head of the AFL-CFO, he was a good, close, personal, friend,” Biden said at an event at the White House.
The president said that Trumka died during a camping trip with his grandsons, reportedly of a heart attack.
“At least he was with people who adored him,” Biden said shortly.
Trumka was 72.
“We’re sorry for your loss, Mr. President,” one White Hosue reporter replied after Biden finished speaking about Trumka.

Biden will miss the payoffs.
Ten percent for the big guy. It's sickening, there's enough evidence to have Biden dead to rights for bribery and corruption. And the only chance they use Biden's evidence of corruption against him is whenever it's decided it's time for Biden to resign.

I hear they used to drive 18 wheelers together.

Both of them probably had a touch more class.
Not excusing what they were.

Trumpka was a worthless POS, and now he’s dead. Who cares?

I’m surprised he didn’t tell him to stand up.
