Teamsters support Trump?

[Dr. Phosphorous]

Whoa!
But but but…..Democrats are the Party for Unions.
This seems like quite a blow to the Democrat Party.

I thought CNN was fake news, according to MAGA imbeciles. Why are you using them as a source?

The union leadership who desperately want to endorse Camela being so hamstrung by 60% of their membership they had to abandon any endorsement at all is in fact an endorsement of Trump.

 

[MagicMike]

Bullshit. Their wives know the score.
Their wives buy groceries and don't care about abortions.
They know who signs their husband's checks and how they earn money.

How can you be so sure? An awful lot of them have been generating Google searches asking things like "can my husband see how I vote" and "is my vote really secret?"
Might be bad news for MAGAts if the wives are defecting to Harris.

Just making up google searches now?

Those blue collar wives know what their grocery costs are. They know what their tax rates are. They know their husband may be replaced by a cheaper illegal. They know their children are boys or girls and don’t want the schools fucking with their heads. They will vote with their husbands because it’s in their and their families best interest. You can easily quadruple the votes for Trump from those union guys. Them, their wives, any kid over 18 and their parents.

Sounds like the Teamsters are a less aggressive form of the DNC--they don't agree with their constituents but they aren't arrogant enough to just openly foist an incompetent on their membership.

Exactly, the union leaders have to keep their jobs. The democrats have enough funding they don’t give a shit and foisted Camela on them.

Prepare for dissapointment.

The rank & file will be voting for Trump despite the union president staying neutral.

Just shows you the same thing you see in politics everywhere, the rank and file want one thing, the bloviated and corrupt 'leaders' who are supposed to be representing them stab them in the back and do whatever the hell they want because they 'know better'.

This will hopefully encourage a big percentage of workers to form unions.

Why? So they can steal your money and then not represent what you really want and stab them in the back?

To let the employer know they can't abuse their workers. And also to get a better wage

 

[BluesLegend]

I watched the President of the teamsters today and they are not endorsing either Trump or Harris and will stay neutral so take your fake video and shove it up your ass.

You're lying, the Teamsters made it clear the vast majority of their members support Trump. You left that part out because you needed to LIE and SPIN.

Unions are out dated and should be a thing of the past. It's all of the federal unions that are a large part of the problem of federal bureaucracy, they should not exist.

A better wage... and price themselves out of the labor market.

Spoken from an employers point of view.

When employers struggle finding a labor force that's a great thing.. wages go up. So without unions we should want the scenario.

You know what else goes up? Prices, on everything.

So you want people working to keep prices down?

Another mass resignation would help.
