Black firefighters' union sues over Trump endorsement

[TexasTowelie]

Club Valiants, Philadelphia’s Black fraternal organization of firefighters, has filed a lawsuit in Common Pleas Court against Local 22, which represents the city’s firefighters and paramedics.

Lisa Forrest, president of Club Valiants, says her group is seeking to rescind Local 22’s endorsement of President Donald Trump, who is seeking a second term in the Nov. 3 election.

“There was an illegal endorsement of Donald Trump so we want them to rescind their endorsement because it violates our constitution, our bylaws and our political action committee bylaws,” she said.

Local 22 member Will Tung said the union ignored the rules to justify the endorsement.

1. The idea that first responders support this criminal is too much.

I wouldn't trust a Trump supporter to help me out in any way.

2. What the Heck! Is this the Twilight Zone?

I'm glad they're suing.. I hope they win the right to unendorse him.
