The Department of Veterans Affairs appeared to be the first agency to begin terminating union contracts, affecting more than 400,000 workers.

The oligarchy. Trump is a symptom of the same disease, but he’s hardly the cause of it. Workers aren’t negotiating with Trump, and the President does not dictate wages. He wants to instigate a strike, or any chaos really, because he thinks it will help him politically. It will create a scapegoat he can blame for the problems he’s causing, and it will distract from his numerous scandals related to him being a serial child rapist.
The .01% and their sycophants are the opponent.
