Teamsters boss alleges DNC snubbed him to protect 'corporate elitists'

International Brotherhood of Teamsters President Sean O'Brien on Wednesday accused the Democratic National Committee of snubbing him by not allowing him to speak at their convention in order to protect "corporate elitists."

The union boss spoke at the Republican National Convention (RNC) in Milwaukee last month, where he described former President Donald Trump as "one tough SOB."

O'Brien said he requested to speak at the Democratic convention in Chicago, but that he has not heard back about addressing voters so far.

"I talked about corporate elitists. I talked about the Ubers of the world, the Lyfts of the world, I talked about Amazon at the RNC," O'Brien told Fox News host Neil Cavuto. "Well, those are big donor classes for the RNC, but they’re also big donor classes for the DNC.

"And you know, there’s relationships there at the DNC that maybe they didn’t want me to speak there because I would’ve talked to that same group," he continued. "I would’ve exposed those same corporate elitists who attack us every single day.”
