And they obviously don't care about the Delta employees who makes far less than them who they'll be putting out of a job. Just my opinion though.
Lol call their bluff by liquidating the airline? That's about as good of a strategy as:

Pilots "we raise"
Delta "we call"
Pilots "what do you got?"
Delta "10 high, we knew you were bluffing"
Pilots "well yeah, we were bluffing but we still have a pair of 4s..."
