It’s free speech, and it’s the truth.

Let see if I get this right, the president of the UAW give a interview to tell how both Trump and Musk are braking the law. But want to show the county the UAW support Kamala Harris in the back ground. Is this really about the law? I think not.

So are you saying a union can take a members money and give it to a Candidate that they don't support? That's BS

[ThomasPaine-wcwe]

Stelantis announced layoffs of a whole division last week, today it's GM, and this is the stuff they choose to focus their time on?

1:20 Of course someone who endorsed the candidate who Trump is running against would file a lawsuit🙄

[scalves]

This will go no where, he isn't president at the moment, so no power, and other than that, everything was opinion. We are still allowed to have those here in America.

[WOLFMTHER]

Cant wait to see them get laughed out of court. Thanks for the publicity.

The UAW can take a flying leap. Using more union dues on a lawsuit that will be tossed sooner than later.

[jasonjones]

How come the ppl can't sue the media for their remarks... N lies

[hanumaniam]

Union busting talk from two ultra rich old dudes. That's talking to the middle class right there. Amazing. We all have unions to thank for everything from safety at work to the five day week.

I dont see anything wrong with what he said, he just telling the truth

[charleswhit]

These anti union comments tell me all i need to know about "poorly educated" trump voters. Yet not 1 will respond to his "everyone who has a job has a black job" comment. Hmmm i wonder why

[CrabFiles]

Unions don't believe you should have the right to criticize them...

[basshunter]

I was in the UAW! Useless is the best description I can come up with! They suck!

[davidliebler]

the greed of UAW is why new cars are nearly unaffordable

[studebricker]

Funny how the auto unions pushed for outrageous salary deals recently and now all the car companies are having to initiate layoffs.

[Yeahwtf]

I worked on Trump buildings for 25 years as a Union Bricklayer, and so did thousands of other Union members.

[TheStephen]

If the UAW can't win the lawsuit maybe they can go strike. The UAW had us to go on strike the company moved out.The UAW needs new leadership.

[bruceb]

I learned a long time ago not to trust labor union management.

[jananickoloff]

We're getting real sick of this more taxpayers time and money
