‘Unreal’: Massive pushback after Trump ‘admitted he stiffed his workers’ at latest rally

Donald Trump on Sunday admitted that he refused to pay his workers overtime, leading to a massive pushback.

Trump, who made a similar comment recently about how he “hated” paying overtime to his employees, went even further over the weekend at a rally in Pennsylvania. At that same rally, the former president put forth a policy idea that many critics compared to legalizing “The Purge.”

At another point during the swing-state event, Trump said, “I hated to give overtime. I hated it. I shouldn’t say this, but I’d get other people in. I wouldn’t pay.”

Republicans against Trump said it was “a rare moment of honesty” for the ex-president.

“Trump admitted he stiffed his workers,” the group added.

Republican accountability group American Bridge 21st Century also chimed in:

“Unreal. Trump proves once again that he’s no friend of working Americans saying that he ‘hated to give overtime’ and that instead of paying it he’d bring new staff in.”

The American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations, the national trade union center known as AFL-CIO, said in response, “This isn’t a gaffe and he didn’t just misspeak — Trump said this in Michigan on Friday and Pennsylvania today. Trump cut overtime for millions of Americans as President — and his Project 2025 agenda will do it again.”

Popular liberal commentator @JoJoFromJerz said, “Donald Trump just bragged about stiffing his employees of overtime pay, and Project 2025 basically does away with it entirely. Vote accordingly.”

Democratic Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta also weighed in, saying, Trump and Project 2025 are all about “cutting overtime pay for hardworking Americans.” Vice President Kamala Harris “on the other hand will stand up for working families,” the lawmaker said.

White House political director Emmy Ruiz said, “Not surprising.”

“Union scab. Always looking out for himself,” Ruiz added.
