Carrier's Union: 'Trump Lied His A** Off'

Shock of a lifetime the President-elect is a compulsive liar. And a very important fact not mentioned on Last Word last night is that the Carrier Union was NOT invited to the table when Trump's imaginary "save jobs" deal was hashed out with Governor/Vice President Mike Pence spending Indiana State Taxpayer funds to bribe the company. No information has been discussed on air about what happens to the laid-off workers (who grow in actual numbers each day) and their health insurance and pensions.

Lawrence O'Donnell reported last night:

LAWRENCE O'DONNELL: I want to go to this Carrier announcement today by the union, saying they've finally done the math. They've figured out exactly what's at stake here and what the jobs are, and it turns out it's a much smaller number that's being held, I don't know if you want to say "saved", but "held" in Indiana. Chuck Jones, the Carrier Union President, said "He got up there and for whatever reason he lied his a** off." And that, that little quote, he lied his a** off, will now, will try to chase last week's giant story in which Donald Trump was given all this huge credit for what now turns out to be, according to the people involved, a lie.

JOHN HEILEMANN: There's a reasonable chance that that quote could be the epitaph for
Trump when he dies. It could be on his tombstone.
