      that was teamsters president sean o’brien. he was roasted a bit for agreeing to do it, but he delivered a pro-union rant.

      I really cant find much fault here. republicans in general and trump in particular dont give a shit about workers, but delivering a pro-union message directly to republican-curious viewers was probably a net positive. besides, support is earned not owed. do better (*fucking sigh*) democrats.

        Appreciate the information, as I didn’t have time to look it up myself at the moment
