The REAL Reason These Billionaires Are Backing Trump

Trump's three biggest donors are all billionaire union busters. Elon Musk, Dick Uihlein, and Miriam Adelson have given Trump $220 million in just the last 3 months. And in return they want him to do everything possible to crush worker power if he wins.

More Perfect Union’s mission is to build power for working people. Here’s what that means:

We report on the real struggles and challenges of the working class from a working-class perspective, and we attempt to connect those problems to potential solutions.

We report on the abuses and wrongdoing of corporate power, and we seek to hold accountable the ultra-rich who have too much power over America’s political and economic systems.

We're an independent, nonprofit newsroom. To support our work:

Lords & peasants is the kinda thing unions save us from. But Musk himself told us not to trust him if he picked sides in presidential elections, so...

How dare they try to collectively bargain? Do the workers think they matter like me? - every anti-union billionaire.

How any working class person is against the labour movement I will never fully understand

Just remember people, it was workers uniting (unions) that got the 40 and 38 hr week, a two day weekend, a lunchbreak and child labour laws sorted (for the most part). In other countries they got holiday pay, sick pay, a fairly decent minimum wage etc. What the oligarch of the US don't want is the for you to have the same as the rest if the developed world. It's one reason that so millionaires and billionaires end up moving to America -- they can only pull so much sh*t in their own countries.
If unions weren't do bad for the rich, they wouldn't spend so much money fighting them. 💜

Enforcement of labor laws saved me from an evil employer once. They committed blatant wage theft and tried to intimidate me. I went to the labor board and filed a wage claim and got my money. It was a long process, but it was a simple case (written evidence of them saying they don't have to pay me, basically thinking they could get away with slave labor) and the former employer lost.

Im an Engineer, had lots of Inquiries from Tesla about working out in Fremont CA on the Model 3 line I assume, back in 2017 or so. He never could come up with the money of other companies that hire the same engineers. I would think this cheapness is really the reason behind being anti union, they mask it as something else, you knowlike when you break up with a girl, its not you, its me. Too bad he didnt hire the more talented, too expensive engineers, his Model 3 might have come out on time.

Citizens United must be reversed and a limit on how much anyone person can donate in place. Enough of rich people influencing average American lives so they and their friends can a mass more wealth and power.

It's funny that, the best years this country has back in the heavy union days. Now look at us! 😮

[chrisk]

As a proud ALPA member, I believe unions are a way for the worker to even the capitalist boat for the good of the worker…

If you want to know how to vote, look at how rich people are voting and vote the opposite of them.
Conservatives don't think this is class warfare but it is. It definitely is.

[ryanm]

people gonna vote their rights away and i'll laugh like hell because people believe they are morally righteous

[om-njhw]

I hate Elon so much. Why people follow these people...

[niagarawarrior]

Nothing says, "i am for the working class - elect me to better your life" better than a anti-union, billionaire who promises to cut taxes to the people who barely pay taxes anyways.

These billionaires are selfish, greedy and heartless.

The Teamsters shot themselves in the face by not supporting Harris. Stupid is as stupid does.

Amazing video despite the economy disaster and political war in the country, investment remains best for earnings. Imagine you work for 40yrs to have $1M in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10K into trading from just few months ago and now they are multimillionaires

[izzigo]

The reason there are unions is because of people like this.They don't want to pay people fair wages.And then they also want a price people out of homes and rent.

Sheldon Adelson is burning with sulfur and brimstone in the dark place.

Capitalism compels devouring every resource, including labour, and discarding them when no longer useful.
