Trump’s Rancid Labor Day Message is a Typically Angry Political Rant that is Focused on Himself

Holidays in America are generally occasions when people can find harmony and common purpose in tribute to whatever particular event the day is commemorating. There is a fulfilling pride and/or joy that is shared regardless of political or spiritual affiliation. We have usually found a way to come together in observance of a greater good.

Donald Trump, Newspapers, Baby, Hate

Sadly, some of that camaraderie has been lost in the wake of Donald Trump’s doctrine of division and discord. From the start of his political endeavors he has sought to drive people apart by inflaming differences in race and class and any other ideological factor he could think of to exploit. Case in point, Trump’s heartwarming tidings to his cult disciples last Easter…

Anyone who expected Trump to be any different on this Labor Day has not been paying attention. They are oblivious to his trademarked emotional brand of revenge and retribution. It’s what drove him to post the following comment on his pitifully failing website, Truth Social…

“Happy Labor Day to all of our American Workers who represent the Shining Example of Hard Work and Ingenuity. Under Comrade Kamala Harris, all Americans are suffering during this Holiday weekend – High Gas Prices, Transportation Costs are up, and Grocery Prices are through the roof. We can’t keep living under this weak and failed ‘Leadership’.….”

Notice that Trump’s message is a purely political outpouring of his hostility and his dystopian view of where America stands today. He is engaging in blatant fear mongering to incite the inbred rage of his glassy-eyed followers. And it contains only a token reference to the workers for whom this day is reserved for appreciation.

But Trump wasn’t finished. He posted a second comment that was rife with lies about the benefits for workers that he said he achieved during his occupation of the White House. The truth, however, is that Trump’s administration was the first in modern times to end with fewer people working than when it started. Many plants and factories closed or moved off-shore. He opposes raising the minimum wage – or having a minimum wage, period. He implemented legislative and regulatory assaults on union members and their rights to organize against the greedy corporate barons who Trump embraces as his friends.

For contrast, take look at the message delivered by Vice-President Kamala Harris. And notice that it is focused on the welfare of workers, their contribution to the nation, and her devotion to their interests.

Harris has fought for workers for her whole career in public service, as a prosecutor, a senator, and in the White House. She is committed to advancing worker rights via unions and the practice of collective bargaining. And she respects Labor Day as a tribute to the people who really drive the economy and create jobs. And if you still wonder which side Trump is on, here he is telling you in his own words…
