Why are Unions for Trump in horror after Donald Trump's recent announcement?

Trump is doing good.

These guys are shortsighted. If Nippon takes over the company it will be gutted and all the jobs will be moved overseas and they will all be out on the street. Foreign companies should not be buying up our biggest companies and they certainly should not be able to own public utilities.

President Trump is doing the right thing. 4 years from now when these guys still have jobs and the American steel industry is on the rise they will see this as well.

I don't know why they would be so opposed to Trump wanting to block a Japanese buyout of an important US industry.

It's not well known, but should be, that Trump is the ONLY US president to actively oppose big mergers and acquisitions. He did it in his first term, and hopefully does it again.

All the anti-big corporation people should love him for this, but they don't. They think that because he's a businessman that he supports big mergers and acquisitions. He doesn't. He's understand the importance of competition. Big mega conglomerates are not competitive, they are monopolistic

This is totally predictable. If anyone is surprised by this, they shouldn't be. The big problem is that the president doesn't have the authority to block a merger like this. But he CAN try to influence those who make the decisions within existing law. In his first term he was successful in some cases, and unsuccessful in others. But at least he's trying.

I don't know why unions are against this. In the past they were some of the biggest supporters of keeping things American instead of foreign owned.

Hmm lets see... Trump wants to bring American manufacturing back and strengthen the military and you think he's want to sell off the steel industry to foreigners, especially after Obama started using low grade Chinese steel for military equipment that catastrophically fails. Yeah sure... Totally was going to happen... That's such a huge surprise... A gut punch. You commies are retarded.

@DrPepper12 They work hard for the title, not for productivity.

[DrPepper12]

@DrPepper12 Nothing, Modern Unions are simply an entitlement.
