The GOP candidate got the cold shoulder from firefighters, who, by comparison, warmly embraced Walz on Wednesday
“right wing candidate gives speech to union, goes about as expected”
Yeah because the GOP has been sooooooo pro-union in all of the times they’ve ever taken office.
Who can forget the time in the 2000s, when they took away or thought about taking away Overtime.
Who can forget the times when corporations actively worked against their workers and the GOP with every opportunity they’ve had, were dead quiet for those workers while simultaneously endorsing the actions of those businesses.
Who can forget the time when the GOP shot down the 9/11 Health Bill, basically saying “FUCK YOU” to Firefighters and every emergency personnel involved with that?
If there is anyone on the planet who gets virtually universal respect, it’s fire fighters. To get booed by them is just another example of how much of a piece of shit you are. Like, HUGE turd.
No songs about, “Fuck the firemen, comin’ straight from the underground…”
Except they get no respect from the GOP. Look at all the FDNY firefighters that have chronic health issues from working during 9-11 and the GOP refuses to pay for health care. Makes sense they’d get booed.
I never heard of a song called “Fuck the Fire Department”.
If you like Firefighters your a SOCIALIST LIBTARD WHO HATES AMERICA!
The right wing in my mom’s town passed a measure to close one of the fire stations (to lower taxes).
Turns out if the fire response times go above a certain threshold, your homeowners insurance goes up by a lot more than the tax cut (I think it saved a couple hundred dollars a year, and added a couple hundred dollars a month to most home insurance in 1/3 of the town).
Once 1/3 of the town realized it, the measures was repealed before the shutdown could happen.
People so stupid it hurts.
“Sounds like we got some fans and some haters. That’s okay,” Vance, who’s been dubbed the “negative rizz” candidate by social media users, said.
Walz, a former union member, championed his and Harris’ pro-labor agenda over that of Trump, who said in a conversation with Elon Musk earlier this month that he would fire federal striking workers, prompting the UAW to file NLRB charges against the duo.
The group, which endorsed Joe Biden in 2020, has yet to make an endorsement, though the Harris campaign has scooped up the support of several of the largest labor groups in the country.
Yeah, they hate you. That’s why they’re booing. Maybe consider asking why they hate you and listening to the answer.
It isn’t “hating” so much as “understanding who he is as a person”
Boo… Clap… Just whatever makes sense.
“Haters”
What people who have legit criticisms can be labeled.
like he’s some fuckin music artist and people don’t like his sound or something
who, by comparison, warmly embraced Walz on Wednesday
This seems like weasel words. Did the firefighters not actually warmly embrace Walz but only treated him better than Vance?

Nothing in the article shows their response to Walz other than that. More stellar “journalism”…
Tim Walz was greeted by applause and no boos. Calling his response “Warm” in comparison to Vance’s is perfectly accurate and more than adequate journalism.
I don’t see that anywhere in this article. Not saying it isn’t true but my comment was specifically a criticism of this piece.
🙄
Yes you did, you quoted it.
who, by comparison, warmly embraced Walz on Wednesday
Where does that say applause? It says “by comparison”(to booing) they warmly embraced Walz. Why “by comparison”? If they warmly embraced him then just say how they did so. They could have sat silently and waited for him to speak and it would be warmer than booing. They could have brought out a marching band in his honor. If you don’t say who knows? Specificity is important if you don’t want to look like you’re trying to spread a narrative that may or may not be true. I shouldn’t have to go find another article describing the event to know what actually happened.
What do you expect, for them to have sucked his dick?
Given the vagueness of the article that’s a possibility.
Wtf do you think warmly embraced means? Jesus, use some context clues or I don’t know find a video of them applauding Governor Walz.

That legitimately took me 15 seconds to find a video where I could hear them clapping.
I’d go even further and say “warmly embraced” is an understatement compared to Vance being openly booed by the same convention.
As I said it could mean any number of things the threshold they established was warmer than being met with boos. They can either describe what they are claiming happened within the article or be yet another shit journalist. Not that they care as long as their headline gets clicks.
What else would they do? It’s either cheer or boo.
If they had got up and left en masse they’d write that.
If they started a riot, then they’d write that.
Seriously does everything need to be spelled out for you word for word?
It feels like if they had explicitly wrote “they then cheered for Walz” you’d be in here questioning the applicability of the word “cheered” based on the number of people cheering, the exuberance of their cheers, and the length of which the cheer was sustained.
Hard not to hate powermad cretins
I hate
WalzVance and love that he got boo’d. That said, I don’t understand why everyone is making such a big deal of him calling them “haters”. That’s literally what that word means. I’m aWalzVance hater. Many of you are haters. It’s a description not a slur.Edit: Yeah I fucked this one up royally, didn’t I lol? Sorry folks.
Walz wasn’t boo’d. JD Vance was
Aww shit. Thanks lol.
The card says moops. I guess GP lives up to his name.
