" Johnny Friendly " unions support Gina Raimondo ? ( Underground message )

    Any Rhode Island voter old enough to remember the Academy Award winning movie " On the Waterfront " will know what a " Johnny Friendly " union is like. No such thing as union democracy.  The union boss is absolute dictator. He makes any deal which serves his own " business " interests and to hell with any dissenting workers. So when I read about the business manager  for local 51, representing plumbers and pipe fitters in Rhode Island, Timothy Byrne, supporting Gina Raimondo for governor , I smelled a " Johnny Friendly " deal . Just how democratic is local 51, Mr. Byrne ?
       Can any Wall St. game player have a clue about the real needs of working people - apart from a nice cold beer after work ? In contrast to Gina Raimondo, liberal Democrat, Senator Elizabeth Warren , is furious about all these pension betrayals - even in the public sector. Let the ONE PERCENT  pay for THEIR firefighters and police officers.  Gina Raimondo is BRILLIANT only in betraying the working class.
