Quote:President Bill Clinton is coming to the Ohio Valley Tuesday and despite excitement from school officials and local Democrats earlier, not everyone is thrilled he's making the trip.

Some regional leaders in the steel industry say Clinton isn't welcome here. One of them resides in Weirton.

Mark Glyptis is the president of the Local USW 2911 in Weirton and he's been leading steel workers for decades, so when he speaks, people tend to listen.

"I don't care if I ever see him the rest of my life, or I certainly, he is not welcome in this area. He's got a lot of guts coming here as far as I'm concerned,” Glyptis said.

Quote:"Every trade treaty that he supported did not help the steel industry and they are doing the same thing with coal and they're destroying America as far as I'm concerned," Glyptis said. "42 bankruptcies occurred under his, when he was in power and 42 steel companies didn't get mismanaged into bankruptcy. It became impossible to compete due to the illegal activities of our government."

Glyptis admits says he doesn't have the blessing of the USW, but that won't stop him from attacking the former president scheduled to speak on Tuesday night.

"He should take a little tour of Weirton or Steubenville, Mingo and that's his legacy. He helped destroy the American steel industry as it once was,” Glyptis said.

The USW was complicit in the destruction of our steel industry.

Only thing Steubenville is known for is a high school football program that protected rapists. I certainly wouldn't want to go there...

I guess this proves that Kaplony is pro-union.

True. Maybe they're getting a clue now?

Not at all. I just think it's telling that the lemmings are finally starting to see the light.

The trade message from Trunp is pro-American working man.

I love it!

Oh and other than thinking that they are cutting their own throats to benefit the union leadership and DNC fatcats I have never been against employees of private industry unionizing.

Public sector unions, however, are a different animal and should be legislated out of existence.

Hence, Pence dropping the "War on Coal" line 3-4 times in the debate.

Believe Me , It's Not hard to see the light when much of Your hard earned pay is wasted on Democrat B.S. programs going to programs aimed at giving illegals protective cover, programs that give more to those that refuse to work because they make more staying at home (also likely paid for or subsidized by taxpayers), Programs designed to make it harder to make production of American products because of the EPA regulations that keep piling on every year. Subsidizing foreign oil instead of drilling for more oil here as taxation on American oil makes it less affordable as well as the EPA interference in acquiring it. We are Fu@ked when it comes to Manufacturing American goods vs Importing Crap cheaper because of Government red tape and lack of tariffs from imports . NAFTA & TPP does not help working Americans.
