[QUOTE="Brown Spider, post: 2216965, member: 52461"] Trump is not a friend of Labor, despite what he may say at any given moment. For the past year he has waged a campaign against his workers at Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas, a strong union town where a majority of hotel workers are union members. Over 80 % of the employees at Trump International voted for the union and the union was certified by the NLRB, yet Trump International has threatened, fired, or otherwise retaliated against their employees while steadfastly refusing to bargain in good faith with their union. Elsewhere, Trump companies have been cited for 24 violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act since 2005 for failing to pay overtime or minimum wages, according to U.S. Department of Labor data. In 2012 Trump said [I]"We are losing our industry. Our companies are moving to Mexico and China. They're killing us at the[/I] [I]border."[/I] Yet Trump, ever the profiteer, has a clothing line that is manufactured in Mexico, China and Bangladesh. Trump is simply not capable of telling the truth. Speaking of Libya during a February debate, Trump said that [I]"Gaddafi should have been left in power. We would have been so much better off if Gaddafi would be in charge right now." [/I]Yet just this past Sunday on Face The Nation Trump said "[I]he would have launched a surgical shot to kill Gaddafi." [/I] And on Iraq? On April 27th of this year Trump said "[I]I was totally against the war in Iraq, saying for many years that it would have destabilized the Middle East." [/I]Yet just 6 months before the Iraq invasion, when asked in a 2002 interview if he supported the invasion, Trump responded [I]"Yeah. I guess so."[/I] Again...Trump is not capable of telling the truth. He has been shown to lie more than 70 times at a single event. To date, the nonpartisan PolitiFact has rated 76% of his statements lies. 76%! I voted for Sanders in my state primary and I would agree that we have a choice between 2 flawed candidates in the upcoming presidential election. But it is clear to me that only one of those 2 candidates, Donald Trump, is dangerously flawed and a serious threat to our country, our union and our way of life. [/QUOTE]
