The lazy, corrupt union bums are upset? Boohoo! The federal unions were created by executive order...and can be eliminated by executive order. They should shut up or they just might be surprised.

Yeah, well, when rights are given to you by people, they can be taken away from you by other people.

Learn.

Gotta love the phrasing - Veterans, Law Enforcement and... “others”.

He also didn’t stop representation - that’s an outright lie.

Collective bargaining in the public sector must be outlawed. The taxpayer is NOT represented.

Mr. Cox, you have zero credibility to at least 60 million producing Americans. The Federal Government has at least one million too many employees that it cannot afford and a large number of them need to be fired so that they can go to work and produce some taxes instead of consuming taxes.

That’s called “an elephant in your living room” I believe.

When unions are mad...it means President Trump did an awesome thing. Thank you Mr. President.

and F UNIONS. I read somewhere that he’s looking into taking out the mandatory union dues before his term is up, please make it so and unions die a quick death

IIRC, the SEIU only exists because of an Executive Order from JFK allowing unionization within the government.

Up until that time it had been forbidden. Pro-labor FDR said that unionization of government workers was inconceivable.

Change the Constitution if you do not like Trump’s Ex. Orders. Or, you can seek an injunction or file a legal challenge.
