    Default If Biden lies and the media ignore it, does he make a sound?

    Joe Biden lied about Steffee and his union supporting him during the ABC News town hall event last week. Host George Stephanopoulos noted Steffee by name in a question about the sincerity of Biden’s support of fracking. Steffee had told the New York Times that Biden’s sudden vocal support of fracking is inconsistent with his goal of ending the use of fossil fuels, and Stephanopoulos pressed him on Steffee’s statement.

    "The boilermakers overwhelmingly endorse me, OK?" Biden snapped on Thursday, adding,
    "So, the Boilermakers Union has endorsed me because I sat down with them, went into great detail with leadership, exactly what I would do, No. 1."
    Except they didn’t.

    In truth, the Local 154 endorsed President Trump in a September message from business leader John Hughes. They appeared with him onstage at a massive rally shortly after. “Biden flat-out lied. I'm only speaking for my local union, which is the largest boilermaker union in the country,” said Steffee.

    Biden is not the one to right the ship of the Democratic Party. The party abandoned its New Deal coalition beginning with the presidential campaign of Al Gore, dismantling it permanently by the end of Barack Obama’s second term in favor of the ascendant coalition of young people, minorities, women, and just a smidge of the white working class.

    Steffee is still part of that smidge of the white working class still trying to hold on to a party that even on the state legislative level is becoming increasingly afraid of standing up for its constituents, for fear it will be primaried out by the emboldened progressive left in the party, causing it to flirt with voting for holding its seats instead of representing its constituents.

    Steffee, 53, attended an Indiana County vocational tech school and earned a degree in mine equipment maintenance. He then attended Williamsport Area Community College, which is now Penn Tech, and received a degree in welding. His previous job at FMC Technologies was outsourced overseas in the 1990s, thanks to NAFTA, Steffee says flatly. Biden voted for NAFTA in the Senate, while Trump pushed for a renegotiation, resulting in the USMCA. Furthermore, when Biden was vice president, he supported the Trans-Pacific Partnership.

    Steffee said Biden's inconsistency on trade and fracking is a problem, and he and other union members can’t find a way to believe him or trust him.
    Biden has openly come out, multiple times, and said he was doing away with fossil fuels. He said that he's doing away with fracking, and now, he's flip-flopped. And that is my whole point. He's now flip-flopped because, in my opinion, he feels that this is something that he needed to change a little bit on because he wasn't getting the support he needed in the state of Pennsylvania with these comments or an agenda in his energy policy.
    The union’s business agent is not finding any of his members buying into Biden’s sudden pro-fracking epiphany. It is even harder for Steffee now that Biden has flat-out lied about having his support, his local union’s support, or the international union's support.

    Trump supporters have forever ceded honesty & integrity as issues or talking points.

    Just a reminder.

    No Trump supporter can ever talk about what is true.

    you idiot. Trump said nothing here -but Trump did appear with the boilermakers union.
    Biden just cooked up garbage about "meeting with them" to get their endorsement

    Where are corrupt Hunter and his father, Burisma Joe??

    When asked about a Hunter’s emails, Burisma Joe blew up and would not answer the question.

    “The American people do not deserve answers.” Burisma Joe Biden

    Sure we can, Snowflake.

    Burisma Biden supporters don’t have a monopoly on truth.

    Don't pretend lies bother you Trumpies. Trump lies as obvious as a teen boy who's caught discovering himself. As a result, people have done stupid and sounded stupid, all in believing or defending a verbal vomiting charlatan.

    Look for the groan divas below. #Owned

    I can accept a premise that all politicians lie to an extent.

    But Trump has taken it to a whole new level. He's actually taken it to a different planet. The man lies like no other I have seen. It's an art form for him.

    Again: Trump's supporters have forever ceded honesty as an issue.
