#Teamsters #Republicans #RNC
I'm self-employed and have no dog in this pro/against union argument BUT this guy poured salt in the right wounds. Go get em!
Unions actually raise non union wages in shops that are not union it's called prevailing wages.
If we didn't have Unions then none of them would be making a living wage in sectors such as automobile workers, electricians and plumbers. Sean should endorse Biden.
Yes but it's the unions that push our wages up and everyone benefits at the worker end. More money in our pockets means we spend more in our local economies and that helps other workers.
Conversely without unions, money stays in the pockets of the wealthy; it doesn't trickle down.
WUT?!
@@mainely8007Trickle Down nor Trickle Up doesn't even exist!!!!!!!!!!!
Listen and understand the entire speech.
Unfortunately, too many are just looking at the fact that he is there and that those there are clapping.
Truly epic takedowns right in their yard. I hope the Democrats have him come too, it is important.
"Not beholden to any party" BAM, mic drop moment.

@@jugo1944 so would I. I’m fine with Sean for either party.
😅 half the time the crowd is trying to work out if they should clap or not
True. But it's good for us all to hear different points of view.
And that's a good thing. Engagement means you're not just clapping like a walrus. You don't just go along. You're listening and processing and you don't always hit the applause cue. He didn't highlight the faults of unions nor should he. Sean elevated the conversation about the American worker beyond right left dynamics to the level of faithful Americans looking for the best deal to make America great for Americans starting with workers.
This is the only thing I think is good. But many of those people vehemently oppose initiatives that support workers. They have no idea why though.
Yea. I noticed that too.
@@UberAV That was put very eloquently.
Isn't this the guy the GOP senators were after a couple a months ago. The one from Oklahoma was blaming him for everything that went wrong in the country.
Yep.
But not all Republicans are against Workers. lol 😂
A lot of us are not bought by corporations. Big Corporations give a lot of money to both. This guy knows that. Democrats only support Government Unions. Not unions like the Teamsters.
Yeah, this is the guy that the Oklahoma guy wanted to fight out in the parking lot.
It's sad to see him selling out his members like this.
@@blaiseutubehe did not endorse trump. He is setting the bar high for Biden to get the endorsement.
@@blaiseutube, maybe you should of listened to what he said instead of just commenting
They made a big mistake having him speak here. These people have never heard a speech like this before and Sean is absolutely trolling these rich vampires to their faces. GO TEAMSTERS!
@thelikebutton: and yet, the crowd looks clueless as they cheer and clap and hold up Trump signs even as Sean is saying that *the teamsters are not beholden to any party.* Go figure. It's as if the Maga cult is ignorant and doesn't understand what he's saying. They are just going through their script like good little Maga sheep. Meanwhile the Maga party "leadership" in their suits and ties all stand there clapping trying to look like they support what he's saying, though they are secretly thinking, "oh, we gotta buy this guy off. We KNOW we can buy this guy off."
Disagree, he fed them undeserved legitimacy. He showed up to a metaphorical NS rally to hedge his bets in case of a loss.
@@jesipohl6717 I agree with you. He spoke at the wrong convention. No surprise that the DNC then did not invite him.
We are all teamsters at my job, but nobody is voting for the democrats.

A good deal of my friends are UAW... they are all voting democratic.
I don't see Republicans actually standing by the Teamsters after they get the Teamsters vote
They dont,,don't,,, Republicans are against union s
And yet, Republicans invited this guy, Democrats didn't.
Sure! Some will, most won't.
The union movement is politically homeless now. A majority of elected democrats do not support the rank and file of union workers anymore.
So the only way to get a pro-union majority is with a pro-NLRB president and a multiparty coalition in congress.
O'Brien is hedging some bets.
They won't.Never have,never will.
@@smileytrashbagand he fooled them all, took the opportunity to call them out and sharing democratic ideals
I bet all the ceo's and stockholders are losing their minds
He offered to speak at both conventions, only the republicans accepted. It's not his job to be beholden to any party. It's his job to work for his workers and work with both sides, good on him.
How do you know he won't speak at the Democratic convention? It hasn't happened yet
The democratic convention still hasn’t happened. What are you on about…
@@Snow.2040 because as of now he is not slated to speak. 😂😂😂

Union member of 30 yrs here, now retired. Sean, endorse Biden, the GOP will NEVER have the working mans back.
Agreed, this is insane
Biden will have nobody’s back. The Dems only care about themselves, their radical agenda and illegals. It’s mind boggling how union members can vote for a party that floods America with cheap labor!
@@antipop885he’s playing his cards.
Well he offered to go to both Conventions the DNC refused him and he even says at the start he doesn't care who you vote for he's there for a union message to be delivered.
@@MagicalHerb but, he didn't just deliver a union message. He essentially endorsed Trump praising him as a tough guy. Or didn't you see that? Praising Trump like that, is code for I'm with Trump and I support trump, so please vote for Trump. He has sold out the unions because the GOP will never support them. Never. It's all smoke and mirrors with the GOP, baby.
All the republicans afraid to clap for him. 😂😂😂
They look really confused 😂
Don't know if you watched the video but, I heard a lot of clapping and even Trump was clapping. But of course just like every lefty you see what you want to see.
Turn up your hearing aids 😂😂😂😂😂
How can they clap with their corporate oligarch over lords watching lol. Both parties are owned by big corporations.
@@YarnellCrewat 9:30 you can see the confusion and less clapping. By the way, learn what a lefty is before making an ignorant comment about someone.
You can’t change minds and compromise if you never work across party lines.
Why do you need to change minds and make compromises if you already have a majority of public support? Oh right, we live in an oligarchy.
There is no compromise to be made workers need more money and rights and unions need to grow period
Have you tried to talk to these folks? It’s impossible
Yes! I agree. But, without hypocritically cheering or glorifying the enemy that we all know who it is.
@@raygunner2437 my husband was Union of Operating Engineers #542 out of Philadelphia for 30 years.

Never saw Trump walk a picket line....
I love how half the crowd don't know what they're cheering for and the other half look like they sucked on a bag full of lemons
An amazing speech. I am for unions but would never trust trumpites to keep a promise to workers. Please deliver this speech again at the democratic convention.
Workers do need to be put first.
"Don't forget! American workers own this nation!" - Sean O'Brien
That's right - we built it and without us, nothing gets done.
Respect! Phenomenal speech and executed passionately. Especially LOVE that he didn’t endorse and instead used his position to firmly let ALL know that Teamsters are for America and no longer for individual parties. It shows he has moral character! It would have been disrespectful for him to voice an endorsement using his position without a majority of his union brothers.
That was a great speech.

It is Marxism, short and simple. No one needs to hear it!
This guy is playing the GOP for his union. He is telling them that he expects the GOP to fully support unions. He warns them that If they do not show support for unions, he will pull the union support. He will probably give the same speech if invited to speak at the DNC.
100% he didn't care who gave him the mic. He used it to its fullest capacity. Well done!!!
Sure he did, he spewed a bunch of vague talking points and didn’t address them trying to destroy unions and wanting to nationalize right to work.
Y’all are always into virtue signaling and not being real.
Yea, and giving them the optics that unions are for them. It is so sick, you think he is playing them, but it is the other way around. And if drump gets in, he will take over ups for the country.... and I am out of a job. YIPPIE
Wasn’t this the same guy about to “Fight” republican senator Mullen during a senate hearing?😂😂😂
Yup
Trump invited him. I thought he was an extremist?
Their cheering for their divine order of fallen kings you know # Mammon
I'm sure. He laid it down. I already watched it before I came here. I said if only Trump would have made this speech. That aint gonna happen in my lifetime.
That's him alright. What's he doing at the RNC? Since when is the GOP supportive of labor unions? Something weird is going on.
Don’t understand how a teamster could support Trump, or any republican at this point. Check Republican voting record on Union rights. He’s a disgrace.
What exactly has Trump done for American workers? Still waiting…

@@YamChoppthey paid well! With great benefits and job security.
@@imwacc0834The speaker didn't do that. TRUMP DID
The speaker is Teamster Union NOT United Auto Workers Union
He does not speak for all unions. The UAW have endorsed Biden the best president for Unions EVER
Anyone notice he didn't actually endorse Trump 🤔 His speech kinda sounded a little progressive to me.
He hasnt endorsed a candidate. They have given hundreds of thousands of dollars to both parties tho. No endorsing he said
He is a Union leader. That means he leads both Conservatives, Liberal and also the independents that form these Unions. That’s like saying why is a Democrat party President of the United States on Fox News? It’s because they want to reach out to more voters that are not already Dems.. I think that’s what this Union guy is trying to do. It’s all about Numbers, he wants to grow the Union memberships around the US once again, which means reaching out to Dems, Republicans, independents, Liberals and Conservatives etc.. That’s a standard leadership skill. 👍🤞
Welcome to the new Republican Party. First time in over 100 years a teamster has spoken at the RNC. This is part of a new strategy and it’s going to appeal to a lot of people in the swing states. If Trump gives a unifying message of hope later this week it’s all over.
@@Stanisthemanis Absolutely agree.
@@Stanisthemanis Why would this appeal to people when there is nothing in their proposed platform, policies or their Project 2025 that supports unions, workers or even suggests that there is such a thing as corporate welfare? It is like they brought in planned parenthood to talk about the importance of abortion rights. You believe people are that gullible?
This is called leverage building..

Thank you for all your hard work over the years. Looking forward to when other people can follow your example. We need so many more unions.
Thank you for being PRO LABOR!!!!
Don’t think Trump or the audience was ready for this!
Do you remember last year when Biden walked the picket lines with the Teamsters and what did Trump do? He went a couple blocks away hired some non-union people to hold some signs so I got a few questions about the Teamsters this year and Donald Trump.
An undoubtedly phenomenal speech by Sean O’Brien, General President of the Teamsters union. I loved the fact he said I don’t care if you have a D or and R against your name, I just want to know what you are going to do for the American worker. One could see vast parts of his speech Trump and others on the podium did not agree with, but I’m glad he had the chance to speak out in prime time on a Party’s platform who have rarely supported or agreed with unions; in fact, as the General President acknowledged they have been openly hostile, but 1.3 million workers cannot be ignored.
This well enunciated, well-articulated speech by Mr. O’Brien spoke about companies being worth $2 trillion dollars (bigger than many national economies) but provide no real health insurance, retirement benefits or paid leave. I suspect Mr. O’Brien probably realises he won’t get his demands from the Republican Party in power, only Joe Biden speaks about the importance of unionised job and unions, but all in all undoubtedly this will be the best speech of the RNC Conference. I commend and salute you sir, you’re a tribute to your union and an excellent choice for General President.
Biden has been in charge for >3 years. What has he done for unions, again?

Why is Elon Musk giving 45 million a month not to pay taxes ? We want to know?
I support my brother Sean O'Brien from our great state of hardworking Men and Women of Massachusetts for Union Labor Party.
I will be voting him out
Now this is a “speech” for the people
I can't believe he infiltrated the RNC like that, absolutely brilliant. I'm surprised he wasn't dragged off stage half way through 😂
Has this guy watched the Agenda 47 videos?
NO,TRUMP AN MAGA,REPUBLICANS ARE AGAINST UNIONS
Make sure you keep msnbc out!
You do notice the cheering is getting lower right? Trump is against unions he said they ruin the country. He's attacking the elites are you even listening 😂
@@marcusupshaw7782 Another made up quote? We aren't buying it anymore. China applauds your support. Xi loves you.
@@marcusupshaw7782 that's what they need to here. Don't think Trump isn't. An open mind to listening is a big beginning
@@deborahsnyder9749Nope
He just got duped 😂
@@marcusupshaw7782😂
It looked like to me that trump was getting irritated waiting for O'Brien's endorsement for president.
Notice he did not give tRump and endorsement.
@@barbaram5787 I noticed. It was a message that trump's voters needed to hear.
@Andi-de3lv
But did they hear, did they understand? I hope that maybe some of the union people he represents had a hard think.
@@barbaram5787 so do I.
