Trump-Hating Union Boss 'Spews Lies' On Fox News, Maria Bartiromo DESTROYS Him On

Live TV

Fox Business Network host Maria Bartiromo got into a shouting match with a global union

organizer after President Donald Trump's speech in Davos, Switzerland.

When Peter Jennings began to "spew lies," Bartiromo promptly destroyed him on live television.

Fox Business Network host Maria Bartiromo interviewed global union organizer Peter Jennings

after President Donald Trump's speech in Davos, Switzerland, on Friday.

(Screen Capture/YouTube) Peter Jennings, general secretary of UNI Global

Union, on Friday told Maria Bartiromo and FBN correspondent Dagen McDowell that President

Donald Trump has not been doing enough for American workers because he is hampering regulations

that union advocates pushed through during the Obama administration.

However, McDowell quickly noted that "it was those very union members in the Midwest

who came out and voted for Trump" on election day in November 2016.

"Stop this demonizing of the trade union movement," said Jennings.

"Stop it.

It just shows your ignorance of what it is we do, and how we try to lift all boats."

"Stop demonizing American workers who don't belong to unions who are happy in their jobs,"

McDowell fired back.

One day prior, while at the World Economic Conference (WEC) in Davos, Switzerland, Jennings

argued that the recent Trump administration tax cuts would not make any difference to

most people's quality of life.

"The ordinary man and woman in the United States is hardly going to be touched, a glancing

blow of a tax cut for them," he said.

Jennings also told CNBC that 83 percent of the tax cut's effect would only be felt

by the richest 1 percent of Americans.

He added that business leaders at the WEC were "dancing in the snow," thanks to

changes in the tax code.

His story shifted a bit on Friday when he told Bartiromo on FBN that "62 percent of

this tax cut will go to top 1 percent, full stop," but still, he was spewing lies and

Bartiromo was having none of it.

"That is absolutely not true," she said.

"I cannot have you spew lies on this program.

That is not the truth, everybody got a tax cut.

And there are the rich that are actually facing higher taxes those who are losing their [state

and local tax] deduction.

Those are people who are finding higher taxes, the majority of Americans are seeing a tax

cut," Bartiromo added.

Although Democrats like Jennings and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) have insinuated

that the $1,000 bonus more than three million Americans are receiving as a result of Trump's

tax cuts is nothing more than financial "crumbs" to the middle-class, McDowell expertly disputed

this claim, noting just how helpful an extra $1,000 is to your average American family.

"A thousand dollars is twenty tanks of gas," she said.

"A thousand dollars is a new television set or a laptop.

A thousand dollars, potentially, in this country, feeds a family of four for nearly a month.

That's what a thousand dollars is to the average American."

Also on Friday, President Donald Trump delivered remarks at the WEC, telling political and

business leaders from around that world that "America is open for business," according

to The Daily Caller.

Trump touted the statistics of a burgeoning U.S. economy, but he also called on the rest

of the world to join him in his administration's quest to uplift the global economy.

"Now is the perfect time to bring your business, your jobs, and your investments to the United

States," he said.

The idea that your average American couldn't use an extra thousand dollars thanks to Trump's

tax cuts is an absolute absurdity.

I, for one, can think of about a hundred different ways that I could put that money to good use

just off the top of my head.

I'm sure you can, too.

This just proves how utterly out-of-touch these bigwig union bosses are — and why

so many union members turned their backs on men like Peter Jennings when they voted for

Donald

Trump

in 2016.
