WEEK. ANY CHANCE THAT PRESIDENT TRUMP
WILL MEET HIM THERE TO RESOLVE
CONTENTION?
CONTENTION? >> Reporter: I’D HATE TO SAY NO
CHANCE.
CHANCE. THE CHANCES OF ANY MEETING WHICH
WERE GROWING LAST WEEK HAVE
DIMINISHED.
DIMINISHED. THE IRANIAN FOREIGN MINISTRY
SPOKESMAN SAYS THEY WILL NOT
MEET IN NEW YORK.
IRAN, IT LOOKS LIKE, HAS MADE
ITS MIND UP.
HIGH HOPES THAT POSSIBLY
PRESIDENT TRUMP MIGHT RELIEVE
SOME SANCTIONS.
SOME SANCTIONS. HE WAS MAKING NICE NOISES ABOUT
IRAN’S POTENTIAL FOR ECONOMIC
GROWTH AND SO ON.
BUT DIFFICULT TO SEE NOW REALLY
HOW HE COULD SIT DOWN WITH
PRESIDENT ROUHANI THERE.
BUT WITH THIS PRESIDENT, YOU
CAN’T RULE OUT ANYTHING.
>> BILL, WE ALWAYS GET THAT
CAVEAT.
CAVEAT. HIGHLY UNLIKELY, BUT WITH
PRESIDENT TRUMP YOU CAN’T RULE
OUT ANYTHING.
OUT ANYTHING. BILL, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
>>> BACK TO THE WORKERS STRIKE.
GM LAST LATE NOOFT.
AS MANY AS 50,000 AUTO WORKERS
WALKED OFF THE JOB AFTER THEY
FAILED TO REACH A DEAL.
THIS IS THE FIRST STRIKE IN MORE
THAN TEN YEARS.
MOLLY HUNTER IS WITH US.
GM MADE AN OFFER --
>> THIS IS ANTOINE, A MEMBER OF
THE UNION FOR 15 YEARS.
WHAT AREN’T YOU GETTING FROM GM
THAT YOU WANT?
>> I WOULD LIKE FOR THE
TEMPORARY EMPLOYEES TO BE MADE
WHOLE, TO BE MADE PERMANENT
EMPLOYEES, AND ALSO I DON’T WANT
OUR HEALTH CARE JEOPARDIZED.
I THINK THAT’S THE MOST
IMPORTANT THING, THE MOST
IMPORTANT TWO THINGS FOR ME IS
HEALTH CARE AND MAKING SURE THAT
PEOPLE HAVE REAL JOBS AND NOT
TEMPORARY JOBS.
TEMPORARY JOBS. >> ANTOINE, YOU WORK AT THIS
PLANT HERE, 700 WORKERS WORK
RIGHT HERE.
RIGHT HERE. IT’S SUPPOSED TO BE, QUOTE,
UNALLOCATED BY JANUARY 2020.
THAT MEANS YOU’RE OUT OF WORK IN
2020.
2020. >> YEP, THAT’S WHAT THAT MEANS.
THAT MEANS WE’RE OUT OF WORK.
>> ALLISON -- A LOT OF PEOPLE
DRIVING BY HONKING.
>> I’VE BEEN OUT HERE SINCE 5:30
THIS MORNING.
THIS MORNING. >> HOW LONG WILL YOU STAY OUT
HERE?
HERE? >> FOREVER LONG AS IT TAKES.
>> WERE YOU PART OF THE STRIKE
IN 2007?
IN 2007? >> YES, I WAS.
>> HOW LONG DID YOU STAY FOR
THAT?
THAT? >> ONLY LIKE A DAY.
>> Reporter: YOU CAN HEAR THE
HONKING.
HONKING. THAT COST THEM ABOUT $300
MILLION A DAY.
MORE THAN $300 MILLION A DAY.
TOO EXPENSIVE FOR GM BUT A LOT
MORE EXPENSIVE FOR YOU.
ARE YOU GETTING PAID AT ALL?
>> NOT AT ALL.
>> Reporter: IT’S WORTH IT?
>> RIGHT.
>> RIGHT. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
ENOUGH OF BIG BUSINESS.
EVERYBODY IS GETTING MONEY.
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE PEOPLE WITH
JOBS, NOT TEMPORARY JOBS,
FULL-TIME JOBS WITH BENEFITS.
LIKE I SAID, THAT’S THE MAIN
THING I’M FIGHTING FOR.
>> MOLE I KNOW THE IMMEDIATE
ISSUE IS THE STRIKE GOING ON
RIGHT NOW AND GOING BACK TO
WORK.
WORK. WHEN PRESIDENT TRUMP IN 2016 WAS
RUNNING, BRINGING AUTO JOBS BACK
TO AMERICA.
TO AMERICA. IS WHAT GOES ON WITH HIS JOB,
THE AUTO WORKERS IN THE U.S. A
MAIN ISSUE FOR HIM IN 2020?
>> Reporter: ALLISON IS ASKING
FROM NEW YORK, IS THIS GOING TO
AFFECT HOW YOU VOTE IN 2020.
PRESIDENT TRUMP CRITICIZED GM
CLOSING PLANTS AND VOWED TO
BRING BACK AMERICAN
MANUFACTURING.
MANUFACTURING. HOW DOES THIS AFFECT YOUR VOTE?
ARE YOU THINKING ABOUT THAT
RIGHT NOW?
RIGHT NOW? >> NOT EVEN REALLY THINKING
ABOUT IT.
ABOUT IT. IT’S NOT A DIFFERENCE TO ME.
I’M NOT GOING TO BLAME IT OR
TRUMP.
TRUMP. I DON’T KNOW HOW THAT AFFECTS
THIS RIGHT HERE.
ALL I KNOW THIS IS GOING ON WAY
BEFORE TRUMP AND WANTING TO TAKE
OUR HEALTH CARE.
IT’S STILL GOING ON.
>> Reporter: ALLISON, WE HEARD
PRESIDENT TRUMP CRITICIZE GM.
WE HEARD GM SAY WITH THIS TRADE
WAR IT’S GETTING A LOT MORE
EXPENSIVE TO PRODUCE -- YOU GUYS
BLAME GM.
BLAME GM. >> I DON’T BLAME ONE PERSON NO
MORE THAN THE OTHER.
LIKE I SAID, I’M NOT PLAYING THE
BLAME GAME.
BLAME GAME. ALL I’M TRYING TO DO IS BE OUT
HERE AND BE AN EXAMPLE FOR MY
PEOPLE AND TRY TO GET PEOPLE THE
JOBS
JOBS JOBS.
JOBS. WE ALL WANT A PRODUCT.
THAT’S WHY WE’RE OUT HERE
WORKING.
WORKING. NOT HERE TO BLAME ONE PERSON OR
THE OTHER.
THE OTHER. WE JUST WANT A PRODUCT.
>> Reporter: ALLISON, THEY WANT
JOBS, STABILITY, HEALTH CARE AND
THIS PLANT THAT WE’RE IN FRONT
OF TO BE OPEN PAST JANUARY 2020.
BACK TO YOU.
>> MOLLY HUNTER, THANKS SO MUCH.
A BIG THANKS TO ANTOINE FOR
SHARING TIME WITH US.
>>> BEFORE BRETT KAVANAUGH’S
NOMINATION, A DEMOCRATIC SENATOR
ASKED FOR THEM TO LOOK INTO NEW
SEXUAL ALLEGATIONS.
SEXUAL ALLEGATIONS. WRITING HIS OFFICE WAS CONTACTED
BY SEVERAL INDIVIDUALS WHO WOULD
LIKE TO SHARE INFORMATION WITH
THE FBI RELEVANT TO THE
INVESTIGATION AND THEY HAVE HAD
DIFFICULTY TO FIND ONE TO
COLLECT THE INFORMATION.
TWO TOP SENATORS, CHARLES
CHARLES GRASS LEE AND DIANNE
FEINSTEIN WERE ALSO COPIED ON
THE LETTER.
