Postal Union Tells Members Trump Is An “Existential Threat”

First off, isn’t this the kind of yammering that leads to people trying to assassinated The Donald?

EXCLUSIVE: Postal Union Sends Letter Calling Trump ‘Existential Threat’

If former President Donald Trump wins November’s election, he would pose an “existential threat” — at least according to a letter apparently from the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC), obtained by The Federalist.

“If Donald Trump wins the upcoming election, it could prove an existential threat to our union and our contract,” the letter reads. “Your vote matters: consider how the consequences could affect you, your job, and our union when deciding how to vote.”

The letter appears to be signed “in solidarity” by Georgia NALC President Don Griggs. It takes issue specifically with Trump and Project 2025, leftists’ favorite catch-all bogeyman.

“Donald Trump and his allies have put together an extensive plan for the next year, if he takes office and appoints anti-union allies throughout the executive branch,” the letter reads. “Our union cannot afford to risk the proposals in Project 2025 becoming a reality.”

The letter claims Project 2025 would “ban all public employee unions and replace private-sector unions with company-controlled unions,” “let states opt out of federal overtime and minimum wage” requirements, and repeal the Davis-Bacon Act, which places wage requirements on government projects.

Second off, does it make you feel good that the people who will be delivering mail-in ballots to citizens and then back to those who count them are taking a stand against someone running for president? Do you trust them?

Third, public sector unions do need to be abolished. The main purposes of unions originally were to bargain for wages and benefits and better working conditions, and to protect workers from poor working conditions and problem bosses. Why is any of this necessary for government jobs? They aren’t working in factories, and few work with dangerous materials.

Griggs told The Federalist the letter came not from him, but from the AFL-CIO — without his permission. “They told me they were going to send me some information as we got closer to the election, and I had no idea they were sending out a letter with my name,” Griggs said. “I never would have sent anything out like that.”

BS. He’s trying to cover his ass. The letter, which you can see at the link, has his signature.
