However, removing unions altogether would be a bad thing. No one in their right mind would ditch ALPA if they had a mainline job. But I wonder what would happen to regional unions if this passed?

This guy has done this through out his entire career as a business man, it's no shocker that it's happening in the WH too. But hey, we get a 30 billion dollar wall, and a Chinese steel pipeline right? If it wasn't so pathetic it be almost funny.
Three posts and your all racist/sexist pigs.

There was a third party or you could abstain. I hope everyone realizes that this guy is gunning for organized labor right? Everyone gets that? No *****footing around, this goes right after every airline pilots quality of life.

Translation reads, "right to be fired with no reason given".
I am a pro Trumper, but living in such a state, and having experienced what this can lead to, this is a horrible thing for anyone other than the business owner.

deadseal, if you ever want to influence others to do the opposite of what you want, start out by insulting them. More than anything else, the 'deplorables' comment cost Clinton the election.

I'm not trying to convince anybody, I don't really care which way you voted and I'll happily tell you to your face what I think unless it's a captain at the start of a 4 day. I do think that the statistical demographics of trump voters says a lot in a scientific non partisan way. I also think that's a funny comment to say that you would vote for Trump regardless of your own self interest just to get back at people that call you deplorable for voting for Trump. Isnt there something about cutting your nose off to spite your face?
Let me ask an honest question to the pilot group that is on topic.
Does anyone reconsider their trump vote now with this?
