The End Of Hillary? Teamsters "Snub" Clinton, Meet With Trump
As if the collapse of her poll numbers and trust factor were not already accelerating, it appears Hillary Clinton may have just seen yet another nail in the coffin of her run for Presidency 2.0. As Fox News reports, The Teamsters union’s general executive board voted unanimously Tuesday, 26-0, to hold off on endorsing Clinton at its meeting in Charleston, South Carolina. Furthermore, to rub further salt in that wound, the union is seeking a "sit-down" with Donald Trump.

The Teamsters union is withholding an endorsement for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, further eroding Clinton’s support from Big Labor.
The Teamsters union’s general executive board voted unanimously Tuesday, 26-0, to hold off on endorsing Clinton at its meeting in Charleston, South Carolina. Fox News reports that the vote was meant as “an intentional snub” of Clinton for backing away from her previous support for the job-creating Keystone pipeline.
The union is holding off until union-friendly Vice President Joe Biden makes a decision about whether or not to run for president.
The union also seeks a “sit down” meeting with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, whose recent tax reform proposal drastically lowers the corporate and individual tax rates for the middle class in an effort to spur job growth, savings, and investment.
Clinton’s relationship with Big Labor has been rocky.
Last month, the National Nurses Union endorsed Democratic challenger Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT)16%
over Clinton.
AFL-CIO head Richard Trumpka threatened to sit out the 2016 election until Clinton backed away from her support of President Obama’s Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal, which unions strongly opposed.

Oh my weep in hell

What would the lame-stream media have to say if White Americans made Illegal Immigrant Piñatas?...
You jews are the biggest hypocrites around. You have on-demand US status while simultaneously holding primary allegiance to israel as a dual citizen, you then order your illegal Mexican gardener to plant your perennials.
"the end of Hillary" .... boing , i just got a monster hard-on !!
the head of the union is named "TRUMPKA".
Now that's funny - obviously a cousin, a few degrees removed, but hey it is still "Family"
NoVa
Hillary for Prison 2016!
Hitlery for Prison 2016 - INDEED!!!
Trump needs to tell the mafia gangsters running the unions to take a fucking hike. He of all people should have no sympathy what-so-ever for shitbag, extortionist union bosses and a good number of their shitbag, useless, worthless "workers", having had to do business with their kind in NYC and NJ for so many years.
IMHO, Trump will see his poll numbers implode if he starts doing any deals w/ the unions mafia thugs.
Don't get me wrong...union workers are not the problem...I'm sure quite a lot of them are still hard workers, etc...and they still buy into the "union" thing as being necessary and all that crap...but they aren't necessary and they should not have the kind of political power that they have with corrupt local, city, state, and fed-scum government collaborators and other mafia shitbags.
Trump should privately or publicly tell those fuckers to back off. No special treatment...tell them to keep their donation dollars and sit quiet in the back of the room, take a number like any other shmoe, and maybe he'll speak with them whenever the fuck he feels like it.
This is the exact same way Trump needs to treat all Federal gov-scum unions as well. It's nothing but a fucking scam to milk more from the tax payers and build the gov-gang up with bloated salaries and 100's of thousands of useless people telling the rest of us what to do and how to do it while they don't pay taxes and sit around on the job all day getting paid watching porn.
The only way you'll be able to get rid of Hillary is to throw a bucket of water on her.
You did not answer the question.
Our friend did not acknowledge the striking similarity between Trump and the pinatas both visually and metaphorically. His campaign is in a downward spiral just like the pinatas candy core when it's broken.
LMAO, If Trump is in a downward spiral, how would you describe Jeb and Billary?
Listening to the Pundits on alphabet news channels is rotting your brain!
Odds (decimal) on Betfair for who will be the next US president.....
Clinton 2.56
Bush 7.8
Biden 8.4
Rubio 9.2
Trump 15.5
Sanders 16
All others 34 ++
Hope Trump's security protects him from being Fosterized...
Contact your source, ask them to provide a few wide shots of the "crowds" supporting Billary at her next stop.
It shouldn't be too difficult getting a wide shot of a small room.
While they're at it, a few of Jeb's would be nice too....
WAKE UP!
Never understood why big labor sided with the Democrats when they are pushing for free trade and open borders to guarantee cheap labor to replace American workers.
Just another reason why American labor unions (other than Public Employee Unions) have become irrelevant...
Very simple once you understand what is going on at the top of Union leadership. First, you have to understand this: They could give two good shits about the American worker. They are in bed with the Democrap party for one reason: Both are subsidiaries of the parent organization: THE COMMUNIST/SOCIALIST INTERNATIONAL. Think I'm being a bit radical? Whoever lived at my address before I moved in forgot to move their subscription of a magazine called:" Solidarity". It is the propaganda rag of the UAW {United Auto Workers union}. Before I called them and asked them to stop sending their trash to my address anymore, I read the three or four copies that were delivered to my door. Complete socialist doctrine, period. The unions believe in spreading socialism GLOBALLY, they know the US labor force has already been captured. They are just another tentacle of the globalist agenda. Their magazine so much as said so.
<< Never understood why big labor sided with the Democrats>>
Wait until Barry imports thousands of refugees to compete with his democrat workers. Hopefully they are bright enough to see that the Dems are no tin their interest. Trump has been dealing with unions his entire life; he will work out a deal with them much better then any Dem or other Rep imo.
"socialist".... LOL! In a truly socialist system, the people own and control the productive capacity/assets!!
This is corporate fascism you stupid fuck. Socialism, as ugly as it is would be a step up at this point.
The leadership know they can confuse "the useful idiots" like yourself easily by playing word games. What socialism is SOLD as being, and what it has ALWAYS been in reality is for anyone to see. IT HAS NEVER BEEN WHERE THE WORKERS OWN THE MEANS OF PRODUCTION, EVER, ANYWHERE. That is just the sales pitch for the lemmings. Take your pick of any socialist/communist country. They all have similar features: The party fat cats live like the kings and princes of the days of old, while the worker {who they claim it is all being done for} lives a sustenance lifestyle. You have bought the lie hook line and sinker. WHO IS THE STUPID FUCK NOW PUNK?
+1000
You are EXACTLY correct here. Marxism, in all forms, is a complete bait-and-switch.
Nobody in the Hillary camp is worried. She still has the International Union of Media Traitors endorsement.
I'm SHOCKED that her sheer sexual magnetism doesn't have the Union boys locked down already!
Necrophilia is so out...
Hilary is lacking her husband's charm.
You think the wife of a world class politician would be smoother and more well liked. She's hated.
It seems like everything she touches turns to shit.
Let me just add this to that.
The End Of Hillary? Is a mistake. The End Of Hillary!Jimmy Hoffa would shed a tear today. His boys did him proud.
Teamsters: We need union jobs to come back to the US so we can collect dues
Trump: Absolutely! Who do you think is going to build these walls I have planned? Union guys!
Here goes Honey Booboo! ;-)
Looney
Scooby is voting for Trump and so are you!
Scooby Dooby Doo!
As long as Glen Beck hates Trump, I will be all for him.
As long as he keeps pissing off (or pissing on) both the Dim's and the Repubtards, I'm supporting him. :)
Good, personally it will be fun to see Trump "bust the joint out"
He is as corrupt/criminal as them all, but he may be the one with the fucking guts to finally "light the match" on this shit show.
Fucking bring it!
The question is, is he competent crook?
He must have bankruptcy down pat by now. Might come in handy as POTUS I'm thinking. Soon, hopefully.
What's wrong with Bankruptcy? Ford, Disney, Jobs, Vanguard, Heinz, Hershey, and the list goes on <-----all went bankrupt.
By the way, just stayed at Trump Vegas. Stunning hotel. Enjoyed it much more than Encore.
Exactly, the problem is in fact fraudulent DEBT!!! Let it clear already for fuck's sake and prosecute, jail and execute the perps!!!
If the Debt created was backed by real money (money backed by real and precious assets), the tactical bankruptcies would indeed be a moral hazard.
As it is, given that modern banking Debt is conjured out of thin air, it is not necessarily a moral hazard. Under the right circumstances, it is merely turning the tables on the fiat crooks, and may be likened to the Gambler beating the House for a change.
Many ZH readers still fail to grasp this subtlety (Real vs Fraudulent Debt, based on Real vs Fraudulent Money), as their childhood programming (subroutines) seem stuck in a "DO Loop" of Real Money and Real Debt.
In short: If he beat The Fiat Casino, and they let him get away with it, then good for him. Don't hate the occasional winner, if you are stuck in the same Casino as everyone else. That would indicate either mental immaturity or incompetence, or a case of the Stockholm Syndrome.
Very well put . . . .
If elected, his bravado will last about 24 hours until TPTB take him into a dark room explain what is expected of him before showing him a short movie of JFK in Dallas. Then they turn and ask him: "Any questions?"
Truth is, it doesn't matter who gets in. All they're good for is to stand in front of the cameras and look presidential, and shake hands with other world "leaders". Anyone that threatens the oil/dollar/military-industrial complex is toast. If you don't believe it just ask Gaddafi, or Saddam.
Damn browser! Sorry about the double post.

Isnt it weird that no matter how many felonies she commits, she cant be stopped?
The only threat, and its real, is the insiders turning on her. She could drive over a bunch of children at a bus stop and the media would casually mention it as a Republican talking point. Maybe there would be an investigation that would stretch on for 5 years or so.
But if the donors dry up, boy your campaign is finished.
When Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden out-poll you, you might be having problems.....
Sanders? Biden? Rodham-Clinton? What's the Democrats' new motto? Preparing a way to the 20th Century? Talk about stale! At least the JV squad has a few fresh faces.
300+ million people and these are the best they can offer?
BECAUSE, you have a corrupted dept. of injustice, & just about every dept. has been turned into a partisan kill machine (aka chicago style) by the great evil muslim himself - OVOMIT!!!!
Be proud of your space, hug a tree, and get over it.
To leverage an old saying... "Money talks, and Crooks can walk" applies to Mrs. Clinton?
If we could only see the end of hildabeast Clinton that would be a good thing for the world.
yeah, Donald will save them and their jobs.....
ameridumbs will never learn........
Exactly. Trump is done for. Over as a candidate. Soon his monotony will be recognized by all. Poll numbers are slipping as we type. Bye Donny. Go build a tower somewhere.
The Teamsters wanting to talk to Trump should tell you everything you need to know about him. Just like Rupert Murdock saying he'd be fine with Jeb or Hillary should tell you everything you need to know about all three of them.
There's one guy who isn't in the banksters' pockets, and that's Rand Paul.
There's one guy who isn't in the banksters' pockets AND doesn't pander to the Fundies, and that's Bernie Sanders.
Yep, Bernie is in the totalitarian fascist government pockets.
FREE GUBMINT STUFF FOR EVERYBODY!!!! Disagree and re-education camp for you!
(but he's not in the bankster's pockets)
Not in the bankster pockets? Where do you think he's going to get the money for all this socialism from? Last I checked the vast majority of the country is flat broke, and all the billionaires together only have the equivalent of $3k per American.
Oh well, run out of "other people's money" in the USA, just borrow from other countries and repay with a few numbers in a bank account. No way anything could go wrong there! /s
I stand corrected.

What pantload of bullfunky. If BS completely defunded the military, and taxed every millionaire/billionaire 100%, there still wouldn't be enough to pay for everything he's promising.
A quick programming note for all you downvoting Stormtrumpers: supporting Trump is quite literally jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire. He's not a puppet politician - he's one of the guys who pulls their fucking strings.
Idiots.
trump is a distraction. to fill up space and take up time.
i still contend that neither clinton nor bush are serious stooges this time around. i believe crisis will unfold (financial, geopolitical or both) and we will be presented with a 'previously unknown' savior (of course if we do some digging the new guy will turn out to be a rockerfeller great nephew etc) and the 401k zombies will clamor to exercise their sacred right to participate in our great representative government.
and there will be a new great plan that will save everyone.
but first a colossal crisis. we must be close.
More and more, I tend to agree with that assessment.
Hmmm.....I dunno.
The Repubtards thought they had a sure winner with Mitt Zombie, and I still believe Oblammo was a complete suprise for the Dim's, as it was "Hillary's turn". If the sheeple smell a Repubturd they might reject it out of hand, I see a turning of political fortunes on the way and it's going to suprise "both parties". Not saying the Don will win, just that "the same old" is being rejected on this go around. IMHO
Obama was always the chosen one. Look at his career path - such as it is. He's been groomed for this since childhood. He might have been a surprise for the Clintonistas, but the Pharisees had this planed for decades.
Romney was hand selected by the GOP 'progressives' to lose to Obama in 2012. This is because a POC like Obama can dismantle the country far more easily than a white male can, since the Marxist media stands ever at the ready to shriek RAYCISSSSS'!! like a 3 year old with a skinned knee. Those same media minions will just as readily scream SEXIST PIG!! for Hitlery.
However, I don't think Prez Hitlery is in the cards, for the simple reason that the oligarchs don't want the Clintons to join them on Olympus. I think the Clintons have delusions of being the 14th family, and there is simply no more room for any new gods. The Clintons have served their purpose, and they'll either accept their peon status in the NWO, or they'll get nail guns for Xmas.
You can safely discount a Wookie presidency for the same reason. The Obamas, like the Clintons, are merely Rockefeller/Rothschild tools, and are in no way seen as equals by the psychopathic Pharisees.
Think as you wish, but this is the truth.
It's what you get when you over cook it. Prez Hitlery.
Throw it out cause it's burnt.
File it as a cooking lesson learned.
Ralph Nadar?
Poor Hillary, left at the altar(of Satan)again...will no one join with this beast?
/S
Why the /S
Sounds like a true statement....
LOL. Because I started my comment with "Poor Hillary". ;)
Who hires more Union people? Hillary or Trump?
It amazes me the number of posters on ZH always commenting about the low wages and shit jobs this nation produces then,,, turn around and bitch about someone earning a decent wage.
Which is it folks? Slave foreign labor or decent local jobs?
False dichotomy.
http://wiki.killuglyradio.com/wiki/Unions
It ain't over until Bilderberg chimes in.
Ponzi, Fascist & Police State.
Everyone is pro welfare(union) on ZH. I'm not surprised.
You know you are in trouble when unions are sitting down with the leading Republican candidate. I say no to Fascism! Trump Tax Plan His labor-protectionist policies would be devastating to exporters and non-union members Trump Far Left Ideology
People who think Donald Trump's tax plan will work are people who, if you put their brain in a matchbox would sound like a BB rolling around in a boxcar.
Trump into bringing jobs back into the USA
15%-20% traiffs on US companies that leave, build their shit overseas and the expect to bring them into the USA
Export the illegals so less competition for jobs
These are all good things for the Unions
Plus Trump has demonstrated that he can work with union labor if need be.
They would be stupid to vote for anyone else.
The Teamsters endorsed Obama. So much for any level of intelligence.
https://teamster.org/teamster-magazine/2012-spring/teamsters-endorse-obama
Excellent.
So how are the Americans going to pay for goods and services now 60% more expensive because of unions, EPA, regulations, etc...?
Nice thought, nice promise. TOTAL BULLSHIT. Unworkable.
Amish - so who should the unions vote for?
Same way they did up to the year 2000. With money from real jobs, unlike EBT, Disability, unemployment and other gov bennies to buy your cheap foreign made goods.
Protectionism BAD!! per Mises and all globalists.
Anyways,,, tariffs are illegal to impose under all those trade treaties the government signed onto. Probably get into office and say "Gee I didn't know that!!"
"We have our hands securely on our members and have felt the pulse. As one, our helmeted member screams TRUMP!".
- James P. Hoffa
Someone's been peeking in my window. How did you know that I often have my hands on my helmeted member? Of course, my helmeted member has ten times more common sense than the best politician in Washington.
we would be better off with our congresspeople, president, courts, governors, state reps, etc - all picked by random lottery on an annual basis
Maybe better . . . but look around . . . it wouldn't be good.
I think he might have meant a random lottery of ZH members perhaps...?
I'd rather have the dude begging for handouts at the freeway on ramp who I gave a dollar to today than Obama, Boner, McCain, Hillary, etc...
I see your point...well said.
it appears Hillary Clinton may have just seen yet another nail in the coffin
Nail in the coffin? How about a stake through the fucking heart? It's the only way to kill a vampire, otherwise the damn things just rise up from the dead.
You're right. And if this one rises up from the dead, we all need to gather around and piss on it.
Three letters....... T. P. P.
Much like NAFTA, it's gonna fuck American workers and to their credit the Teamsters understand this. Also, the Keystone pipeline. Hillary is a fat globalist POS.
If The Clintons were a rock band, their albums would now be in the back of the clearance rack. With the price sticker marked through several times, each time reducing the price by half. I can't wait to see their house and furniture auctions...
Trump has dealt with unions before, he knows you take brown bags full of bills TO THEM. Hillary thinks the union should bring brown bags of bills to her
It's telling that even the Teamters don't want to be near her stank
Not a surprise, maybe people should look at Trump's associations with his mentor and close friend Roy Cohn and Cohn's links to Anthony “Fat Tony” Salerno, where it is also alleged Trump met with him.
Yes keep firing the "roycohn" and the smartbomb too (Rickperry)
Hillary for Prison 2016!
"The union also seeks a “sit down” meeting with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump..."
Conversation, like certain portions of the anatomy, always runs more smoothly when lubricated.
The Teamsters are just negotiating in the early rounds of the election, playing one candidate off the other. They will go with the highest bidder in the end, and Hillary will give them whatever they want to get elected, most likely paid for with your money.
hmmm compete with 17,18 year old Mexicans
DEPORT THE COMPETITION
Vote now for food on the table
Notice they don't seem interested in a sit down meeting with Bush, or Christie or Rubio. That says something about their assessment of who matters on the Republican side and their likelihood of doing anything about economic impact on union members.
