We know they would have bc they already did! And that was before Biden-Harris bailed out the pensions.

Awful.


They endorsed Biden before Biden / Harris let in millions of workers who are willing to work for far below what a union worker has negotiated. You're harping on pensions but depressing wages and making the job market more competitive during the working years isn't supportive of American workers.


100%


This. The millions of illegals work at wages far below union wages and take away union jobs.


Plenty of legal, white scabs willing to work far below union wages too. And those rats all lick the boots of Trump, Vance and their corporate cronies.


1. This is a gross way to describe people
2. People here legally have the right to be here. Those without permission to be here do not.

Is there some kind of brain disease that leads Republicans inability to stay on topic? PP was talking about homegrown scabs. Frankly, that’s the perfect way to describe them and you clearly have no affinity for labor if you don’t know that. Clearly as a Republican you have nothing but scorn for labor so I’m not surprised. You yourself have probably crossed a picket line or two.

This is probably motivated by racism. They were behind a white guy (Joe Biden) but when it comes to a Black woman, they won’t support her.

Typical of uneducated working class whites.

You omitted the words "northerners," "Californians," "Minnesotans," "Seattleians," etc when describing those workers as motivated by racism. Few union workers reside in the south.

Teamsters have always endored Democrat candidates for decades and decades.

The fact they won't endorse Kamala says a lot!


Teamsters have been in the Trump camp since 2015. The fact that they're staying out of this one says more about Trump than Harris.

I guess that didn’t stop them from grubbing $36 billion from the Biden Administration. Barf.

The bolded is correct. "The Teamsters have endorsed the Democratic ticket in every presidential election since 1996, when they did not endorse a candidate." But, interestingly, "the union had closer ties to the GOP decades ago, endorsing Richard M. Nixon, Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush."


Bill Clinton won re-election easily in 1996. Maybe this isn’t such a big deal.


There was an issue then where the DOJ rigged the election against Jimmy Hoffa Jr. to put in someone friendly who would send money to the Democrats via AFL-CIO. Hoffa went to court and had the election overturned and took back the leadership.

They won't be toast, since so many other unions endorse here. Honestly, this is so blatantly sexist that anyone who cares about equal rights would be wise to vote for Harris.

Teamsters support Trump over Harris 2-1. Democrats keep using the same rhetoric while ignoring the policy changes they have instituted.


This would make sense if Trump wasn't so anti union, which he is.

I'd like a cite from the original source whenever someone quotes retweets "End Wokeness." It's not exactly credible.

But that aside, the overwhelming majority of union leadership has endorsed Harris and will direct funding and resources in the form of members to GOTV. Individual union members will vote the way they want to, regardless of who their union endorses. Individual union members' votes tend to reflect the voting preferences of the country at large.

Since reading comprehension isn't your strength, let me put it this way: US citizen and legal resident scabs have a right to be here. Allowing in millions of illegal immigrants on top of workers already here to become scabs isn't doing this administration any favors. But let me guess, you are one of the ones talking out of both sides of your mouth and also saying Americans are too lazy to do certain jobs. Tell that to union workers.

Well I didn't see them turning down any benefits they got from Biden.

Or maybe they remember and still believe that KH was considered one of the worst VP’s in US history and up until Biden’s disastrous debate performance, considered a huge liability for the party.

How is Harris one “one of the worst VP’s in US history”? Be specific.
