Trump stabbed labor over and over. Now he says he supports striking auto workers? | Steven Greenhouse

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

59% : He named a string of corporate water-carriers to the National Labor Relations Board who often seemed to see their role as undermining unions and making it harder for workers to unionize.
56% : Labor leaders should issue a warning: workers of the world, unite against trump's con.
55% : He recently said that workers shouldn't pay their union dues; only a person who wants to hobble unions would say such a thing.
53% : Trump made it easier for Wall Street to cheat workers by scrapping the "fiduciary" rule that required investment firms to act in the best interests of workers and retirees in handling their 401ks.
49% : During Trump's four years as president, he and his administration did far more to stab workers in their backs.
49% : If Trump is a friend of workers, why did his administration repeatedly do what corporate lobbyists asked for instead of what worker advocates wanted?
49% : Trump's appointees to the supreme court have shown scant sympathy toward workers and outright hostility toward unions.
48% : When Trump tells workers he has their back, he thinks he's a clever wolf trying to reassure a flock of sheep that he has their back.
36% : Then, in a favor to financial firms, Trump repealed regulations that aimed to prevent payday lenders from preying on financially strapped workers.
34% : Trump's NLRB appointees said, for instance, that gig economy workers like Uber and Lyft drivers should be considered independent contractors, not employees, thus preventing them from unionizing under federal law.
