Letter: Real construction workers don’t wear hard hats to political rallies

I recently watched on television news coverage of President Donald Trump speaking to a crowd of his supporters. Seated behind Trump were a group of construction workers in their hard hats and safety vests. They were just props.

First, they were dressed exactly alike. Second, I wore a hard hat for 25 years while at work. We took our hard hats off as soon our shift was over. None of the people I worked with would wear hard hats to a political rally.

I don’t believe the people sitting behind trump were construction workers. I think they were paid actors in construction worker costumes trying to give the appearance that workers support Trump.
