Trump was an outstanding president for labor, a fact for which he receives little credit. Many labor union members backed Trump, but the bosses are in bed with the Democrats and backed Biden. Now the Steelworkers Union is asking Biden to keep Trump's tariff on foreign steel in place.

The April jobs report showed the U.S. added only 266,000 jobs during the month and the unemployment ticked up to 6.1%. Economists are usually off the mark, but holy cow. They predicted 978,000 job growth and unemployment of 5.8%. I have never seen such a huge difference between prediction and numbers. Miserable considering the U.S. started to see some growth at the end of former President Donald Trump's term.

The United Auto Workers (UAW) told Ford employees at an Ohio plant the company wants to move production of a new line to Mexico instead of their Ohio Assembly Plant (OHAP). Ford has not made its decision public, but the union insists it received "strategically limited information," and the situation is "rapidly evolving."

It's astounding that one of Joe Biden's first acts as president was to destroy thousands of jobs with the stroke of a pen. The people who lost their ability to provide for their families have spoken out, but their objections have fallen on deaf ears. Republicans, who are increasingly embracing working-class voters, are planning to make the Democrats pay a political price for this.

Joe Biden has been president for a little over two weeks, and it already feels like six months. I knew that when Democrats and the media kept claiming that Biden would return to normalcy, it was a lie, but I didn't realize how bad it would be. It's a disaster on multiple levels.
