"I know a lot about overtime," the Republican candidate boasted. "I hated to give overtime. I hated it. I'd get other people, I shouldn't say this, but I'd get other people in. I wouldn't pay."

Right off the bat, there are still some political observers who like to pretend that the former president is some kind of ally to working-class Americans. It's against that backdrop that Trump thought it'd be a good idea to admit that he, as a boss, deliberately took steps to deny his own employees overtime compensation to which they were entitled.

But just as notably, a variety of analysts have explained that the far-right Project 2025 agenda, written in large part by members of Trump's own team, would also limit workers' access to overtime compensation.

With all of this in mind, Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign wasted little time in pouncing on the Republican for accidentally speaking his mind.

"Donald Trump is finally owning up to it: He's built an entire career on screwing over workers," Harris-Walz spokesperson Sarafina Chitika said in a written statement. "It's exactly what he did in the White House - trying to rip away tips and overtime pay for millions of workers - and exactly what he plans to do in a second term. Trump is a scab, plain and simple. He is selling snake oil lies in a desperate attempt to trick voters. He can't be trusted - workers know it, and voters know it. They'll elect a champion who has their back by voting for Vice President Harris this November."

Hope the Teamsters are listening to Donald telling the world how little he values those who work for an hourly wage.
