President Trump on Monday slammed AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka over his critical remarks about the president.
"Richard Trumka, the head of the AFL-CIO, represented his union poorly on television this weekend," Trump tweeted. "Some of the things he said were so againt [sic] the working men and women of our country, and the success of the U.S. itself, that it is easy to see why unions are doing so poorly. A Dem!"
Politico notes, "Trumka came down hard on President Donald Trump on Sunday morning over what Trumka called a lack of progress in supporting America's working class."
Trumka made those remarks during his interview with Fox News.
"Unfortunately, to date, the things that [Trump] has done to hurt workers outpace what he's done to help workers," Trumka said.
"He hasn't come up with an infrastructure program that could put a lot of us back to work," Trumka also said. "He overturned some health and safety regulations that will hurt us on the job."
