Does all the "class warfare" rhetoric that's been tossed around recently help or hurt your chances of being released (assuming the POTUS does have influence on the NMB)?
Good questions.

POTUS releasing a labor group under the RLA would be as crazy as stating a firm position on gay marriage during an election.

Under the RLA the "P" in the PEB portion of the process stands for "Presidential." So yes, the POTUS has some influence with the process.
