    Another view is there is only one boss and the guy that got fired wasn't him.

    Being of stronger stuff than some surrender-crat, I would give that employer's message a hearty snork and go about voting for whomever I wanted. As often as I wanted. Isn't that how Democrats roll?

    If, maybe, likely, to a certain unspecified degree.

    You failed.

    All unions are organized crime shaking down people who would otherwise vote them out and save money. Why, how DARE the feds demand that unions allow their members to EVERY YEAR renew or turn down union "representation." It was blatant, trying to keep their own victims in the dark.

    Here's the other big union rip-off that got addressed.....

    Unless it's a feminist study of lesbian turtles in New South Wales. The ones not eaten by the wombats and the tasmanian devils.

    How many burger flippers remained burger flippers, or used that PART time to go find better work? Moreover, how many of those same vacancies were short-term seasonal to begin with...meaning Obama did nothing and employers needing summer help got 'er done.

    So he tells people that he believes if they vote one way it's this, the other way that. But did he demand proof the employee actually DID or WOULD vote as he stated? Did he deny any employee their absolute right to vote for whom they please?

    Doesn't look like it. At the very worst it was a clumsy attempt to tell an unwanted truth to people who MIGHT --- again, MIGHT --- have to go seek other jobs. In this case the employees did get advised and they can vote for anyone they like. There really is no problem under Florida law.

    Better warned than a factory gate padlocked, wouldn't you say?

    In dollars of that day, FDR outspent because the Huns gave him no choice. We were decades paying off the bonds and other financial instruments.

    Say --- why isn't Biden pledging to REDUCE spending if the liberals are so concerned we spend too much?

    Do we agree a private employer has the absolute right to keep his/her/its employees fully informed of important political and economic matters?

    Where are your quotes from Pelosi, Schumer and of course AOC screaming *FOR* debt reduction? I doubt you'll find any. The Party of Tax and Spend cannot survive without taxpayer shakedowns. They don't care if the economy bankrupts. It's all good in their worldview. It's why they have to be stopped.

    Any crackpot letter to the editor deserves equal weight as this claim. He quit. As a private citizen he went to the media with it. What is different? How many jacka**es have we seen writing nickel-plated BS there, by any chance?

    I 'umbly contend, sir, that he did have the right to run --- and damn sure lacked the foresight.

    we do not want to reduce spending now, the time to pay off the debt is when you have a great economy - not when it is crashing

    raise the min wage, tax corps that foreign outsource more, that will help lower the debt

    nope, in fact if you tell employees before stockholders in some cases it's a crime

    that said, what this employer did is legal, but not ethical

    That's exactly why you need to use voter intimidation instead of bribery.

    You are trying to find an excuse for something that is inexcusable. Not only that this company is intimidating their workers, but that Trump loyalists are defending this criminal and anti-patriotic practice.

    And I can tell you right now.... it wouldn't surprise me if there were companies out there doing something similar for Biden. It's equally immoral, and you will not see me looking for excuses not to condemn it as such.

    So what?
    It doesn't change the fact that a union making a political endorsement is not voter intimidation, unlike a boss doing the same to employees.
    Buy the way, wasn't Trump bragging that police unions have endorsed him? Was that, voter intimidation?
