    What the fuck is up with that grip? It looks like he’s delicately holding the bottom half of the pistol grip with his fingertips.

    Edit, just to be clear: I thought his grip looked fine in the video. This artist’s rendition just looks weird. I might actually buy this if they made him look like a competent shooter.

    You realize the union is against this acquisition? If this sale goes through, US Steel executives get a windfall and union members, without any protections, get to look for another job. Trump, Biden, and Harris all campaigned against it.

    Either that, or the US Steel executives who would have made bank during the sale. I previously thought Lemmy would have never supported big business interests over a union; however, the responses to this post are making me think otherwise.

    No, this post isn’t true. It immediately claims “they fell for the con,” implying that these union members voted for Trump thinking he would back the deal and were betrayed. However, Trump, Biden, and Harris all have been consistently against this acquisition. Even four of your linked articles use the term “reiterated” when describing Trump’s stance. This is something he campaigned on. Nobody “fell for a con.” Sure, a few union members may have disagreed; however, if they thought any of the two-party candidates were going to allow this, they were delusional.
