    I like how an ANTI UNION Company Sponsored an Event where a “Union Leader” made a Big Speech at!

      I agree with your premise, but from what I heard the union leader didn’t give a fuck. He said he wanted to speak at the DNC as well and went on about how nobody is helping the workers and they only help corporations.

      Here’s a write up and video(there’s a link to the actual speech)

      Labor law must be reformed. Americans vote for a union, but can never get a union contract. Companies fire workers who try to join unions and hide behind toothless laws that are meant to protect working people but are manipulated to benefit corporations. This is economic terrorism at its best, an individual cannot withstand such an assault.”

        That’s just BS propaganda. The teamsters already talking about not endorsing the Democrats this year. His appearance that convention was an incredible political victory for the Republicans. His speech doesn’t even matter. It’s that he was there alone and the political victory that entails. I don’t know how people are missing that. He’s just a scummy class traitor who’s trying to transition for a quick buck.
