I’m a retired firefighter. Most firefighters I know are union members and are pissed that the IAFF has done this and are saying so to leadership.

They will vote Trump. There is little they can do about union leadership except quit. And some will quit, but it won’t make a difference. All union money goes dem.
One thing they do is get out of the PAC fund, but other union money goes to political causes too.

Frankly if you are in a labor union and you support a guy who was No 2 in an administration that thought 1.5% GDP growth was acceptable as the “new normal”, then you are just plain stupid.

Is there any way a union can root out their leadership? I’ve never been in a union, and not familiar with the inner workings.

It is nice that you think that union national leadership cares what union members want, or think, or care about. They don’t.

Just WAIT till all the REALLY CREEPY photos of Joe come out fondling little girls! The firefighters and anyone else that supports him will be embarrassed!

PLUS, I think he's running so that the LAW doesn't come after him about the UKRANIAN SCANDAL!

Think James Hoffa.

They certainly made sure there were no little girls near him yesterday.

While they dressed it up nicely with tokens behind him, I honestly can’t think of a whiter group of people than firemen.

My brother-in-law says this happens all the time at Ford. The UAW supports Democrats but the workers pay them no mind.

Now why they continue to vote for these people is another issue. It’s like San Francisco, Detroit, or Chicago continuing to vote for Democrats all the while seeing the corruption. It’s mind boggling.

Interesting that they think that pulling Kerry across the finish line versus Howard Dean in 2004 bears any significance anymore. That was 15 years ago, and their party has become a lot more radicalized.

And Trump is the best thing that ever happened for the solvency of public pension funds.

Nope. It probably hit around the time this perp endorsed Algore. I’m out.
