Philadelphia Firefighters’ and Paramedics’ Union Endorses President Trump’s Reelection

Dan Bongino:

On Tuesday, the Philadelphia Firefighters’ and Paramedics’ Union broke from the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) and announced its endorsement of President Trump for reelection.

Breitbart reports:

“The Philadelphia Firefighters’ and Paramedics’ Union, Local 22 of the International Association of’ Fire Fighters proudly endorses President Trump for re-election,” the union announced on Tuesday, hours ahead of the first presidential debate.

“The members of Local 22 respectfully break with the undemocratic IAFF endorsement of Joe Biden and pledge our full support to President Donald J. Trump,” President Mike Bresnan said in a statement, explaining that IAFF’s endorsement of Biden was done “without a canvas of local unions and the consideration of the rank and file IAFF membership.”

  1. …I was, very briefly, IAFF (some weird insurance thing the city did that didn’t work out, but I was young and would wear ANYTHING with a Maltese Cross on it and honestly cared nothing about politics at the time), and no, even THEN, they NEVER cared what the rank-and file wanted. The “leadership” wanted dues and fealty, and that was IT. THEY’LL pick your (Democrat) candidate for you, thank you very much!

    …I’ve talked to Teamsters, AFL-CIO guys, railroad union guys, and Ironworker guys, it’s the exact same story.

    Unions pick Democrats.

    Period.

    …forget “if you don’t vote Biden, you ain’t Black”.

    THEY want “If you don’t vote Biden, you don’t hava JOB”.

    That’s what Card Check is all about.

    God Bless those guys for breaking with the unions, they will be spanked for it.

    But I hope ALL the locals break away the same way, all my FF brothers and sisters, and myself too, have been saved by a LEO at one time or another if they’ve been in the game for any kind of time, so they should stand WITH them, and AGAINST Democrats, no matter WHO tells them to endorse.

    (of course, we’ve all been placed in DANGER by LEOs at one time or another TOO, but that’s a different story for another day…;)
