“We remember all of those who put their lives on the line to save others, and are grateful to those who continue to do so 24/7/365,” adding, “We love our great firefighters, thank you!”

Trump’s comments came following his remarks the previous day, where he called out the head of the International Association of Firefighters Union for endorsing Democrat opponent Joe Biden in the upcoming 2020 election.
The International Association of Firefighters Union is rebelling on their very foolish leader. Perhaps they will vote him out of office. He doesn’t get it! https://t.co/NmaasMxOLE pic.twitter.com/7tMG5NtvwO
