President Trump is in a twitter battle with Chuck Jones, leader of the Marxist United Steelworkers Union.

QuotePresident-elect Donald Trump on Wednesday blasted a steelworkers union leader who accused Mr. Trump of exaggerating the number of jobs saved at a Carrier Corp. factory in Indiana.

On Twitter, Mr. Trump said Chuck Jones, who heads the United Steelworkers local at the Carrier plant, had done "a terrible job representing workers. No wonder companies flee country!"

The United Steelworkers took to Twitter to rally support for Mr. Jones and defend the union's collection of dues as a way to fund court fights to save U.S. jobs.

Here's a bit of irony, coming from a union thug:

Quote
In an interview Wednesday night, Mr. Jones acknowledged he has received threats since the Trump tweets, but said they "don't bother me a whole hell of a lot."

I LOVE that Trump has the unions, front and center.  Unions are the biggest destroyer of jobs, and exist only to extort dues from workers who are not allowed to work unless they join the union.  That's why unions shrivel up and die like a leech on a hot sidewalk in right-to-work states; they're not illegal, but they can't force workers to join if they want employment.  Who wants to join a scam organization?

I can't tell you how excited I am that this is happening.

No.  Unions drive companies out.  Trump saves them.  It would be like the guy technically not lying by telling his wife he was at the bar, but left out the part where he and the waitress were making out in the bathroom all night.

Nice try.

thats not how I read it..as the union guy lays out that trump lied on how many jobs were saved or created ..and the facts back him up

the fact that unions cause costs to rise is a different subject

dont matter cause they are going to automate with the bride money and jobs will be lost anyway

Jones says he sticks up for the worker.  That is a lie. To put another way, the entire union premise is a lie.  Unwork the union lie first.

No I'm not.  Jones rammed the side of the ship into an iceberg, doesn't mention it, then Trump says "Hey, there's 100 deck chairs", then Jones says "Nuh uh... there's 93!".

Trying to hang Trump as a liar on this, meanwhile other companies are talking about staying and returning, make you seem crotchety.

  trump either lied or is an ignorant fool for not knowing all the facts ...while the union guy told the truth..and hes the one being hammered

all the other is just distraction from these facts

FACT: Trump got Carrier to keep jobs in Indiana that the unions ran off.

FACT:  He did not tell the truth.  He lied about representing the workers.  That is a lie, and he should apologize.  If he had any honor, he'd pull out a sword and fall on it.

Quote

The numbers are not exact, other than 100% would have been gone.  Only in your world can a union run off a company to Mexico, the union guy then lies about representing the worker, yet you point to Trump and call him a liar for specifying a number that nobody even knows what the exact number will be.

Again, nice try.
