Chuck Schumer Strikes Alongside United Auto Workers as Biden Plays Catchup with Trump
Breitbart ^ | 09/26/2023 | HANNAH BLEAU

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is the latest to join striking United Auto Workers (UAW) members on the picket line, speaking with members and holding up a sign in Tappan, New York, as Democrats attempt to halt former President Donald Trump’s courtship of the strikers.

“We’re going to fight until we win,” Schumer said, explaining that his father, a “union guy,” told him, “When you’re doing the right thing, when you’re doing something important, look in your heart, make sure it’s the right thing.”

Kamala-esque.

What UAW President Shawn Fein doesn't acknowledge is that Biden and Schumer are also both millionaires.

UAW president, Michigan Democrats: Trump isn’t welcome on picket line

UAW President Shawn Fein:

“We can’t keep electing billionaires and millionaires that don’t have any understanding what it is like to live paycheck to paycheck and struggle to get by and expecting them to solve the problems of the working class.”

Union before Country. The GOP ideals failed to mitigate the Blue Collar polarization especially since most would likely vote Right notwithstanding their Union protections/guarantees.

See what Trump did folks? He made inroads into a traditional Democrat stronghold and forced the Democrats to waste time and money on what's usually a lock. He is fighting them on their own home field.

The auto makers should fire all the strikers and hire in the illegal aliens Biden has allowed to flood this country. I bet they would work for half of what the strikers were paid.

You’re not “striking” unless you’re one of the ones going without a paycheck.

I’m OK with him not working in the senate for a while.

Hey, the Democrats will strike along with anyone, even those who would destroy us to get their political donations.

“When you’re doing the right thing, when you’re doing something important, look in your heart, make sure it’s the right thing.” Chuckie forgot to add, “And make sure there is money in it.”

I just googled the ceo earning of Gm/FORD/Stellantis.

GM: $28.9 million

Ford: $20.9 million

Stellantis $25.0 million.

That equals $74.8 million.

REDUCE each one to only $10.0 million—leaves $44.8 as ‘overpaid’

Take $44.8 million & divide by 150,000 “WORKERS”-—

That equals $298.67 annually extra for each “worker”.

“Workers” do their shift & go home.

They currently work 40 hour weeks & they want to work only 32 hours for 40 hours pay.

CEO’s are on duty 24/7/365. THEY DO NOT HAVE A DAY OFF FROM THINKING ABOUT THEIR COMPANIES.

IF these union idiots think that reducing CEO pay & giving it to THEM instead-—They need to learn to do math.

$298.67 a year MORE & THEY ARE ON THE PICKET LINES????

MORE UNION STUPIDITY

Backed up by JOE & other Democrats.

I remember when GM spent millions building facilities in Mexico & hired Mexican workers.

They bussed them into work each day.

They fed them

They housed some who lived more than 5 miles away.

Mexican workers quit showing up after 1 or 2 paychecks-—
GM quietly closed down those facilities.
