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.

He probably met him once or at least SAW him once.
I Doubt they ever met. He saw his name on a check donation
His death will be reported as a heart attack brought on by Covid
Richard Trumka=Mobbed up jackass. Just like Joe.
“He was more than head of the AFL-CFO, he was a good, close, personal, friend,”
Sorry to hear that Joe. May you meet up with your good, close, personal friend...very soon.
They say these things always happen in threes......
He was more than head of the AFL-CFO, he was ...a HUGE fundraiser for us and got those union guys to vote for us and gather the ballots for harvest.
Can someone please explain to me how CEOs of companies and companies as a whole can be fined greatly or have lawsuits brought based on showing partiality through acceptance of gifts and/or close relationships and associations? Yet Government nobodies can do all of the above with no repercussions?
Biden only mourning the loss of Trumka kick backs.
The age old question when this happens is:
Are you hearing the angelic choir or are you feeling the burn?
I like Hoffa too, but he wouldn’t play ball, you saw what we did to him, not Trumka, he was great and wanted to play along, always had the money, never late, and never gave a whit about selling out his members....
That would do it....
Covid death again.
That heart problem will be ignored.
Trumka was a thug.
Capone salutes Lansky.
That’s all it was.
Trumka was an openly admitted communist.
“Trumka was a thug.”
Yes, but now and forevermore he will be a good communist.
Commrade Trumpka was a regular visitor to the Obama office. If Joe was awake, he saw the Communist plotting in live action.
