Good for him. They've already endorsed Biden.

quote:

President Trump on Monday slammed the leaders of what he called the “Dues Sucking firefighters” union after the International Association of Fire Fighters endorsed former Vice President Joe Biden in the 2020 race.

“I’ll never get the support of Dues Crazy union leadership, those people who rip-off their membership with ridiculously high dues, medical and other expenses while being paid a fortune. But the members love Trump. They look at our record economy, tax & reg cuts, military etc. WIN!” Trump tweeted Monday.

Union leaders are totally out of line with what members support.

This applies to policemen, steelworkers, etc.

There's a near 100% certainty that Trump will carry actual firefighters.

You would think they would be all MAGA since Trump's main platform is about jobs.

It would suck to have to pay into a union you dont want dealing with.

Crazy shite. I remember once a non-union office worker I was dealing with couldnt make copies of documents I was needing him to give the fedex guy that was getting there soon...because the copy guy was union, and gone for the day. Baffling.

Union leaders have invested far too much in Democrat candidates over the years, they want more personal return on that investment.

Trump giving obama fodder for his weekly union call.

Still chaps my hide that the dems, and obama screwed over the Colombian/US free trade deal Bush worked on to add in union protections. Unions there are pretty much the leftist guerrilla leadership. Made the agreement pretty pointless. Trump needs to get that shite fixed to help that region if he gets what he needs in '24.

I am going today to stop my dues. The IAFF never asked the member base who to support. They just said your elected leaders chose for you based on democratic primary polls. Shameful.

90% of firefighters support Trump, because they aren't pussies.

Just wait until all the unions who came out adamantly against the green new deal throw their support behind the Democratic candidates.
