Attendees at Trump's rally were economic hostages.

“This guy’s bullshit is making me nauseous. I’m gonna hurl!”

;-)

1.5 hours of Trump word salad, loose associations and heap o' lies. It's a wonder the hostages didn't pass out.

I keep telling you guys...when everything is an outrage, nothing is. You are numbing everyone to actual bad stuff.

In this case, dudes are being paid to stand/sit around...at union scale.

This rates up there with comparative ice cream scoop count.

You believe people being pressed into the service of a politician's political campaign, they my not agree with, or losing their overtime pay as punishment is a meaningless infringement ?

Why ?

You agree with people being pressed into the service of a political campaign they my not agree with or losing their overtime pay as punishment is a meaningless infringement ?

Why ?

Because he “doesn’t like Trump.”

Trump is such an insecure, narcissistic megalomaniac that he’s terrified by the thought of a Trump hate speech crowd that does not fill the room. I’m sure that’s why they wound up paying people to attend. As a bonus, they paid workers in uniform to attend to help sell the Trump lie about him being good for workers.

Trump knows you have to "garnish" the scam if you want to really pull in the suckers.

He is very much into the “presentation.”

But he is only outraged at the outrage against him.

That's pretty fair isn't it ?

Yes indeed. Criticizing Trump’s daily outrages is “trivial.” If one “doesn’t like Trump.”

It's all about the look, gilding the lily .
Once you get them in the room Trump knows it's the proven way to get the rubes to bite at the hook. It's the same way he picks his cabinet members.

 

[Spamature]

“Deplorable”??
Show up and get paid not to work or take a free vacation day at home without using personal leave?
That seems like a square deal to me either way.
You even employed?

But not showing up means you will lose your weekly overtime. How is that not being pressed into serving his political campaign ?

 

[Spamature]

Sounds like they had a choice to me.

Yeah I am sure for many of them the the choice was between paying the minimum due or the full balance on their outstanding revolving charges, considering they would lose their overtime for not attending what is essentially a corporate sponsored Trump rally.

Attendees at Trump's rally were Economic Hostages

Trump's large union crowd at Shell was given the option of not showing up — and not getting paid


Aug 16, 2019

10:22 AM

The choice for thousands of union workers at Royal Dutch Shell’s petrochemical plant in Beaver County was to either spend Tuesday standing in a giant hall waiting for President Donald Trump to speak, or to take the day off with no pay.


“Your attendance is not mandatory,” read the rules that Shell sent to union leaders a day ahead of the visit to the $6 billion construction site. But only those that showed up at 7 a.m., scanned their cards, and prepared to stand for hours — through lunch but without lunch — would be paid.


“NO SCAN, NO PAY,” the rules said.




Those that decided to sit out the event would have an excused absence, the company said, and would not qualify for overtime pay on Friday. The company has a 56-hour workweek with 16 hours of overtime. That means those workers who attended Mr. Trump’s speech and showed up for work on Friday meeting the overtime threshold are being paid at a rate of time and a half, while those that didn’t go to hear the president are being paid the regular rate, despite the fact that both groups did not do work on the site on Tuesday.

You people are so manipulated by Trump - you will defend ANY and EVERY thing he does, just like clockwork - USUALLY WITHIN MINUTES and he knows that - his loyal base - his group of Minions - and before you say you aren't show one time where you OPENLY disagreed with him on here ( and risk being kicked out of the 10 person club )

Actually it goes like this.

1) One of my leftist base members posts some butthurt 'news' story crying about it.

2) The facts are posted and it's nothing as was originally stated

3) You show up and cry about Trump supporters.

Got it ?

This was a perfect example.

 

[Nutty Cortez]

This leftist butthurt parade was blown to bits soon after it hit the internet.

You have a source for that whopper?

just for that one day……………...Shell doesn't like employees missing Saftey and Training sessions...……….if you'd have ever had a job that required S&T sessions you'd know that

 

[middleview]

Because it was Trump that set the company policy...hahaha. You people are so manipulated by the leftist press that you will attack ANY and EVERY thing he does, whether he actually does it or not.

It's like a constant drone coming from you people. I have never seen a group so invested in hate and misinformation.

then you were sleeping from 2009 to 2017

 

[middleview]
