just_another_person'Unreal': Massive pushback after Trump 'admitted he stiffed his workers' at latest rally
I fucking hate defending this piece of shit, but what he’s saying isn’t “they worked overtime and I refused to pay them.”
He said: “I hated to give overtime. I hated it. I shouldn’t say this, but I’d get other people in. I wouldn’t pay.”
So he’s doing the scumbag, but legal, thing of “you’re about to hit overtime so don’t come in/continue working. Someone else will finish/cover your shift.”
I don’t think people are upset because he broke the law, that’s a separate ref flag, they’re upset because he did whatever he could to reduce wages for ordinary Americans and boost profits for himself. It’s shitty and he’s saying it out loud.
I guess I’m desensitized to that because literally every retail job does the same thing. It’s definitely shitty though, but it’s “normal” in our shit society.
