Former President Donald Trump is meeting with Teamsters Union leadership at their headquarters in Washington, D.C., today. Teamsters President Sean O’Brien met with Trump at his Mar-a-lago estate earlier this month, with Trump saying on Truth Social, “Had a great dinner tonight with Sean O’Brien, General President of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. Looking forward to more discussions about important issues in the near future!”
The Teamsters Union is also meeting with President Biden as they consider who they will endorse in the 2024 presidential election. O’Brien told Neil Cavuto on Fox Business, “We’re talking to the White House now to try and schedule both on the same day, and we think its important that we’re meeting with all candidates, we have a very diverse membership, 1.3 million members, so we owe it to our members to do our due diligence and make the recommendation whats in the best interest of teamster members nationwide.”
Last week Trump criticized Shawn Fain, president of the United Auto Workers Union, after the UAW endorsed President Biden. He posted on Truth Social, “Shawn Fain is a Weapon of Mass Destruction on Auto Workers and the Automobile Manufacturing Industry in the United States! Is he under contract to China, because they will be getting almost all of our ‘Car making’ Business within a very short period of time. All Autoworkers should VOTE FOR TRUMP. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
