On today's edition of Power Lunch, anchors Melissa Lee and Michelle Caruso-Cabrera challenged AFL-CIO Richard Trumka over what seems like the labor leaders' parroting of Donald Trump's recent rhetoric.

"Even a blind squirrel finds an acorn once in a while," was Trumka's response when pressed on the issue. But he also predicted that union members will not support Trump in large numbers once they get a chance to know his policies a bit better.
