A GoFundMe campaign for a Detroit autoworker who called Donald Trump a “pedophile protector” was suspended from the Ford plant where he worked on Tuesday. But it looks like he’s going to be alright financially. A GoFundMe campaign set up for the Michigan man has already raised over $400,000 and counting.
TJ Sabula, a 40-year-old line worker, told the Washington Post he was suspended from his job for shouting “pedophile protector” at Trump during the president’s visit to the Ford F-150 plant. Trump responded, either by audibly saying or just mouthing the words, “fuck you” twice. The president then extended his middle finger as he kept walking.
Two different videos posted to social media captured the exchange, including the first published by TMZ. White House Communications Director Steven Cheung defended Trump’s actions, telling the Washington Post: “A lunatic was wildly screaming expletives in a complete fit of rage, and the President gave an appropriate and unambiguous response.”
I also heard that UAW is standing by his first amendment rights. So a nice payday, a fuck you to Trump, and gets to keep his job. What a happy ending, thanks unions!
BuT wHAt aBoUt whEn I hAVe to pAy $30 bUckS a yEAr iN uNiOn DueS???
UnIon bAd
$30 a month! That adds up to a PS5, totally not worth it! /s
Poverty wages + 0 (and belief that I could have bought a PS5 instead of joining a union)
Vs
Livable wage and without a doubt more than enough money for like 15 ps5s in a year on top of that
Who would win
My union, which is substantially less powerful than the UAW, is about $120/mo for me.
Worth every penny I’m sure. I was making a reference to the anti-union propaganda that tried to argue union dues were worth trading for a PS5
Lmao I looked it up, on my delta flight… it was a delta ad: https://thehustle.co/delta-airlines-anti-union-video-games
It will not buy a PS5 pro, however
