And the behind the scene stories about the workplace environment at his companies make clear just how absurd that particular line of his is.

Whenever unions, or labor organizing get brought up, he never misses a chance to take some dig at them, including his lie how he's such a great boss that his employees don't need a union.

Just like how he's such a great manufacturer that his backpacks didn't need an actual warranty.

He never said anything about being anti union.

What he said was that if his workers felt the need to unionize then he had done something very wrong.

I don't understand how you think these two sentences are consistent with each other.
