This doesn’t come as a shock.
Our first responders love President Trump.
President Trump recently received an endorsement from the firefighters and paramedics union in Philadelphia.
In order to endorse Trump the firefighters and paramedics union of Philadelphia broke away from the International Association of Fire Fighters who earlier endorsed Biden.
Local responders from the union were surveyed and nearly all the votes came back in support of Trump.

Our good friends over at Fox News covered the story:
The firefighters and paramedics union in Philadelphia broke with the International Association of Fire Fighters to endorse President Trump in the upcoming election, according to a report.
Michael Bresnan, president of the Philadelphia Firefighters’ and Paramedics’ Union, Local 22 of the union, said the firefighters association didn’t survey local chapters and rank-and-file members before endorsing the former vice president, who has long and strong ties to the union and to the organized labor movement in general, for president.
“They know what is at stake in this election and this endorsement should be a wake-up call to IAFF leaders that have lost touch with the will of the membership,” he said about their Joe Biden endorsement. “There is tremendous support for President Trump among first responders and we encourage other IAFF locals to confer with their members.

The Washington Times contributed to the story too:
The Philadelphia chapter of the International Association of Fire Fighters broke with the IAFF on Tuesday to back President Trump for reelection over his Democratic rival Joseph R. Biden.
Michael Bresnan, president of the Philadelphia Firefighters’ and Paramedics’ Union, Local 22 of the IAFF, said the national group’s endorsement of Mr. Biden was done without canvassing local chapters and rank-and-file members.
Mr. Bresnan said Local 22 members were surveyed and “overwhelmingly” chose Mr. Trump.
“They know what is at stake in this election and this endorsement should be a wake-up call to IAFF leaders that have lost touch with the will of the membership,” he said. “There is tremendous support for President Trump among first responders and we encourage other IAFF locals to confer with their members.”
Biden supporters like the BLM organization and Antifa organization start fires.
Trump supporters are the one’s who put them out.
Interesting: Philly firefighters union local breaks with the national union and endorses Trump.
Firefighter unions can be a key cog in the get-out-the-vote machine. Biden campaign can't be pleased with this. https://t.co/rx29Wft3s9
