it’s far too dangerous for the climate to produce climate changing products in America. Plus, we need living wages. Tell me, with the push for unprofitable EV’s, what will become of GM and Ford when China breaks into the American automotive industry. Will all those union benefits matter when the companies no longer exist? Or will they be too big to fail?

It really is that simple.



Biden is working against America.



Trump is Pro America.



We don't need polls or studies to tell us this. We only need to look around. We can all feel that America is heading in the wrong direction.

It is really ironic that the Left can go on and on trashing Trump but when asked about Biden they go back to trashing Trump. They do this because Biden hasn't done anything good.


Trump has his faults but compared to Biden he is George Washington and Abraham Lincoln rolled into one.

He withdrew his name from consideration after it appeared that he didn't have the votes to get appointed.
Other names and terms terms to research are Alex Acosta, Peter Robb, The Obama Overtime Law, and the "Fluctuating Work Week Method" of computing overtime.
So, you are concerned about unqualified govt nominees?

You should subscribe to one of the youtube channels dedicated to Senator John Kennedy from LA exposing the multitudes of completely unqualified (DEI is involved for sure) , stupid, or radical left nominees for varied positions from the current Potatus admin.


John Kennedy is a hoot eviscerating some of the clowns that come before the senate.

My point is that Trump is wealthy, and the wealthy will never give the working man an even break.
You are casting pearls. The delusion here is deep and wide. DJT was the best thing that ever happened to the USA. Nothing you say will contradict that belief.

A CNNMoney analysis calculates at least 34,000 jobs attributable to the Donald.

Trump Cuts Legal Immigrants By Half And He’s Not Done Yet

President Trump Reduced Legal Immigration. He Did Not Reduce Illegal Immigration

There's a difference between" labor " and unions.


90% of America's working class are non union.

So to make America great again we should double labor union membership to get back to normal?

Majorities of adults see decline of union membership as bad for the U.S. and working people

The idealized 1950s had 35% union labor.

People are clearly not about judging a candidate on their record and accomplishments. If they were then we wouldn't be stuck with these two idiots we have running (again).

As long as we have a plethora of retards with voting rights in this country, then this is how it will continue to go every, single election cycle.

Take a look at the web sites that I posted. You will find that Pudzer was in fact anti labor. His managers were encouraged to make workers work through unpaid meal breaks, and where legal he paid them with fee based debit cards.
