@@Pumpmaster77obviously not!! He made any videos about BYD visiting our plants in Canada?!?! Any videos about BYD visiting CTC?!? No, ok well then what about Stellantis CEO visit to SHAP and BYD's CFO just happening to be in town that day?!?! Toledo assembly cutting a shift? Warren truck cutting a shift!! Engine plant in Indiana on down weeks, transmission plants on down weeks?!?! Yep he's really on top of things!!! Probably needs to have his ducks in a row before he wants to tell anyone how they need to vote.
He's too worried about his political future. Fain is the real scab. Endorses the worst president in history, then gets an appointment to the White House advisory council. Then Biden implements his EV mandates which will kill all of our jobs and Fain has nothing to say. He's a coward and a massive POS.
They really sound like a pair of movie villains. I kinda hope the Harris campaign is willing to make this connection more times. Elon Musk really is like a younger version of Donald Trump.
I'm a UAW member and most of us at my plant think Fain needs to STAY OUT OF POLITICS!!!! Using our union dues for anything other then safety, benefits, and helpings both UAW and the big 3 moving forward!!! Isn't Fain under investigation???
It's ALL about politics. Any union contract can be nullified with the stroke of a legislative pen. Benefits that were bargained in good faith can go away if people get voted into positions that hold sway over laws or courts. "Right to Work" is an example. Health and Safety laws (having clean water provided at work) are more examples.
@gorillaglue3962 Then you'd officially rather be a subject, rather than a citizen? 🤣 "Don't worry little Gorilla, Big Daddy government will take care of you."🙄
0:21, Vice President Harris needs to run this clip of Trump laughing at firing working Americans EVERYWHERE! Run this IN TRUMP'S OWN WORDS! in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, Nevada, North Carolina, Georgia, FLORIDA, TEXAS and OHIO! Put those THREE on the electoral map too. Run it in Montana to help Sen. Tester! RUN IT!!!!!! For EVERY American worker to hear!
@@tony84. He can laugh all he wants for all I care. Fact is, he will be better at running the country than clown show diversity hire Harris. Shawn doesn't speak for this 27 year member, and there are many of us, your union brothers and sisters, who feel the same way. Think for yourself, don't let the UAW run your life outside of work bro.
Most of those states are completely devoid of unions. Elon has spent years bragging about how he fired 80% of the Twitter staff and no one ever bat an eye over it. This is just more lawfair to throw at trump and his supporters.
@@ArloPear25 That is NOT her position. She supports fracking! And all of you in the Trump crew need to worry about Ohio! It's TIED! And Trump is furious! and he should be! He was up by 8 points a few months ago. Release your internal polls! I HAVE SEEN THEM! Release them for EVERYONE TO SEE!
A SCAB is non union employees, Fain contracts made most 2nd tier factory workers SCAB LABOR: no pension, no union pay after 90 days, dont have to join the union!!!!🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩 Block opposing viewpoints in thier UAW FB groups. My way or the highway is the Official UAW slogan. Discrimination by another mother is discrimination🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩
I'd like to see a vote from the membership before the uaw endorsement. Even you say they can't fire a worker on strike, so who cares what he thinks about it. The issue is, there are so many other policy concerns with the new democratic party that far outweigh what trump thinks about the unions.
Trump was bad for middle class workers???! Oh yes gas at 1.79 a gallon was awful....Biden and Kamala really saved us I'm doing much better economically...said no one ever.....LOCAL 2210 NY
Trump broke trade agreements getting our oil from Saudi Arabia. Not to mention refinery workers in Texas were laid off because we couldn't buy oil that cheap. Now China and India have stock piled oil 2 years in a row creating a shortage. Congress passed legislation forcing Trump to follow our trade agreements. Also Scott scoffield some big shot in Texas oil went to meet opec and the Saudis to raise oil prices to make back some money lost during covid. There was a Congressional hearing about it and 40 republican Congress people wrote letters trying shut down the hearing. Trump has destabilized Europe and the middle east.
@@NT-lz5ezactually the lock downs varied by county so trump didn’t lock anyone down. Your VP pick waltz jailed business owners for not complying with his states lock down orders in addition to his “hotline” to report your neighbor for not wearing a mask etc, nice try though
@Big-lron well thank you Joe Biden for your leadership on owning all aspects of the economy as I became a multimillionaire during his term. Again, look in the mirror for all your problems.
Striking workers were/are intimidated and wrongfully terminated. You want the union leaders to say nothing and do nothing? Actually all wrongfully terminated striking workers by Musk or Trump should file class action lawsuits against them.
I am a uaw member for 37 year i wish fain would stay out of politics he does not speak for me or a good portion of the uaw just stick to your job of representing auto workers appears he has future political motives
Trump is another greedy billionaire boss who laughs when he fires workers. That's why most union members voted against Trump in both 2016 and 2020. It's also why Trump lost Michigan in 2020, and he will again in 2024.
Been there and done that. Prefer a union but they shouldn’t speak for the members politically. No place for politics in the workplace but since everyone feels the need to tell everyone who they are endorsing then maybe members should vote on who that endorsement goes to. Not bought and paid for by greedy politicians lining union officials pockets for endorsement and political tactics.
@@keepinitrealz”back back” is that ignorance I’m hearing or a stutter. All these jobs will be shipped out to other countries if democrats keep ruining things. These aren’t the 1980s democrats you’re supporting now
@@keepinitrealzI don't want to get rid of unions, but at the same time, if the union isn't doing its job, workers should be free to decide whether or not to pay dues. They shouldn't have to go find a new job; rather, the union leadership needs to step their game up, do a better job, and make people want to join and feel value from paying dues. Are you really for the workers if you want to force them to do things instead of giving them the choice? Put the onus on the union that runs itself like a corporation, not the workers who are just trying to feed their families.
How are the Big 3 jobs cuts coming along? Before the contracts were even signed the writing was on the wall. So far about 5,050 workers have been laid off since the ink has dried. Labor costs are passed on to consumers in the price tag, and the majority of consumers don't want to pay 2 years wages for an American vehicle when similar alternatives are available at 2/3 the price. Fain was warned about job losses and now it's happening. Go figure. I was an AFL/CIO shop steward. I'm pro-union, but there's a point where too much ask is too much.
Showing how uninformed you are. Labor cost avg is 5% of a vehicles MSRP cost. Meanwhile the CEO cost is over 34% - 36% of a vehicles cost! I dare you to look it up for yourself!

sgt. major. tim walz served his country with 100% distinction & honor. and i want to say to union members. trump said on tape with elon that he admired musk cutting workers because the buffoon bone spurs thinks that's a tough guy thing. to cut workers because they wanted to negotiate for better conditions. which elon did he cut them. that's what he thinks of workers union or non union. factor that into your considerations.
No wonder Trump loves poorly educated. You are the reason that Trump/Musk are taking pride in firing workers. How stupid of two old narcissists going on air confessing illegal firing/intimidation of striking workers! How stupid of any worker to support Trump/Musk, two deplorable farts!
@@dvdv8197The "extra" money I make as a union member means nothing if it gets eaten up by taxes and increased expenses of goods and services. Being a union member isn't something I identify as, or allow to become my personality. Being a union member is just something that comes along with this job; I pay dues for a service they're supposed to provide, that's it. The union isn't a church or some cult to be worshipped. At the end of the day, I need my country to run properly, to run as a country ought to run. While I don't like or agree with everything Trump says or does, I think he did a decent job the first time around. Trump is clearly more experienced and more competent to run the country than some two-bit diversity hire whose foray into politics began when she slept with the then-married mayor of San Francisco and was given a position with the city as a form of hush payment.
Who buys rich peoples' products? Everyone. Who will buy the shit these guys sell if everyone is poor? They don't need to care about me personally in order to want the country to run properly. If the country is ran properly, we will be just fine as workers.

I worked as pipefitter alongside Union pipefitters,...at least where I was working, they were some of the slowest workers I have ever seen,..and they made more money than I did. They don't need more money, they need to learn how to work harder.
Fain is a company lackie And "U Aint Working" An old timer here, SCAB was fighting words it meant somebody crossed a your picket line and put on their tools on. He should know what the word means
That's funny 😂🤣 seeing Shawn Fains speech! Most Democrats in the audience didn't even clap and cheer his speech! What a boring loser and Unions won't get nothing from Trump or the Company, besides unemployment!
triking workers were/are intimidated and wrongfully terminated. You want the union leaders to say nothing and do nothing? Actually all wrongfully terminated striking workers by Musk or Trump should file class action lawsuits against them.
Rfk24!!!! Btw excellent job your doing Shawn 👏🏾 F-trump!! I’m not voting for democrat either this time they have been morally and financially a disappointment we got raises but everything to damn expensive and weird!
