OK but the problem isn't that Trump is being low key about this, it's that he has lied about insignificant shit so much that Americans don't have any reason to trust him on the big stuff.

New in PN: "By the time you read this, the White House may have put out a Labor Day statement. It will no doubt offer an effusive tribute to Trump, who in his infinite beneficence has delivered workers a utopia of prosperity. But back on Earth, he's the most anti-labor president in modern history."

As Trump attacks unions and occupies our city, we’re called to remember how we got here. Labor Day would not exist without the workers who fought and died at the Haymarket Massacre and the Pullman Strike in Chicago. It’s not a coincidence he’s targeting Chicago:
