Bottom line you have a very short memory or simply don't know what the **** you are talking about. He saved 260,000 well-paying auto-industry union jobs much to the chagrin of the Republicans whose deregulation brought on the global economic crisis. The APA pilots have frozen vice terminated pensions thanks to Obama's PBGC Director fighting AMR. We just dug out of the 9/11 lost decade thanks to Obama's NMB. Wake up!

My pay has more than doubled under the Obama administration as well as my retirement fund. I doubt that I will be able to say the same at the end of Trump.

Maybe so, but by the same measure, Obama's administration just approved the greatest threat to our careers that we have ever encountered.

We will have between Jan 20, 2017 and Jan 19, 2021 to crap on Trump if he screws us like you predict... in the mean time let's see what he does to the airline industry and overall US economy before we say how bad a Prez he will be... "could be lunchmeat, could be peaches, who knows".

No, the US-EU Open Skies Treaty was negotiated and signed in 2007. It has been sitting there waiting for an airline like NAI. Guess who was the President in 2007? I'll give you a hint. It was the same President who supported amending the RLA with baseball-style arbitration until 9/11 made that unnecessary.

Causation and correlation, one doesn't necessarily have to do with the other. The same prez just dealt the biggest blow to our careers by a political administration in a generation.

Take all the time you need, but since your memory WRT Obama is selective at best I would anticipate the same with Trump.

I think it is pretty clear that appointments are policy especially with someone like Trump. For those with our eyes open it is pretty obvious that this is going to be a very rough four years for labor.

I think he was responsible for hurricane Katrina as well?

Hey didn't your boy have over 7 years, that's rite 7 years to undo all the evil the bush administration has done? I do believe he had control of the house and senate for over 2 of those years.
I have a question for you lefties. When will B.O. ever be held accountable for anything?
Hypocracy at its finest!
