In another instance of building political alliances, Donald Trump was applauded today by union leaders in the White House.

In a meeting led by the president, union leaders interrupted Trump’s remarks with clapping when he informed them he “officially terminated TPP” by an executive order.

“It’s a great honor to have you here,” Trump told the attendees. “You’ve been very special to me.”

He continued, “We’re going to put a lot of people back to work. We’re going to use common sense and we’re going to do it the way it’s supposed to be done.”

According to Reuters, meeting participants “included North America’s Building Trades Unions President Sean McGarvey, Laborers’ International Union of North America President Terry O’Sullivan, SMART sheet metal workers’ union President Joseph Sellers, United Brotherhood of Carpenters President Doug McCarron and Mark McManus, president of the United Association that represents plumbers, pipefitters, welders and others.”

Trump specifically commended the sheet metal union for its work on his hotel down Pennsylvania Avenue.

Trump, a Republican, opposed the Trans Pacific Partnership during the campaign while Hillary Clinton, a Democrat and union endorsee, waffled on the issue.

Union leaders then posed for photos in the Oval Office with Trump and told the media they had an “excellent meeting” with the president.
