Comment on US labor unions gear up to fight against Trump’s ‘Billionaire First’ agenda

I remember 2024 when I was inundated with union guys saying Trump was best (because of protectionist tariffs). Then in 2025 lamenting that tariffs were making things they want to buy more expensive, and that there should only be tariffs on the products their specific union makes, but tariffs on things they want to buy should not be a thing.

I guess we’ve come around to remembering that somehow the quintessential rich guy for the “trickle down” party isn’t going to be good for workers after all… what a shock…
