"When President Trump invited me to speak at this convention, there was political unrest. On the left and on the right. (It's) hard to believe. Anti-union groups demanded that Trump rescind the invitation. The left called me a traitor. This is precisely why it's so important for me to be here today. Think about this: The Teamsters are doing something correct if the extremes of both parties think I shouldn't be on this stage."
Sean O'Brien, Teamsters President @ RNC
