When 80% or more of their members are Trumpers, it's no surprise. It would cost them their positions.

Again. Is the membership unaware of the $36b bailout Biden provided in the face of republican opposition?

Money laundering payoffs to the top dawgs in the unions. Regular members get zilch but a small slap in the face token amount.
Also, why were they needing "bailed out" if they are so good at helping their members and managing money hmmmm?

I guess we can count on a quick approval for long haul automation of trucks on our interstate highways. the teamsters can meet their load at the exurban warehouse to finish the last 10 miles.

No choice if they want to work.

Try watching "Blue Collar" with Richard Prior, or "Armed and Dangerous" with John Candy. First one is gritty real life Union corruption. Second is more jocular and humorous.

I don’t know if he’s MAGA, but I do know that the audience he is playing to is his membership. He must think that his message resonates with the majority of his members. He is elected by his membership and that’s who keeps him in power at the end of the day.

I'm the PP and a from a union family. You would think that the membership would be grateful about the bailout but from what I've seen across a number of blue collar unions, the MAGA members identify more with that identity than with their union, even as they enjoy the benefits that come with membership in a union (higher compensation than non-union workers, excellent health care plan, pension, job protections, legal representation, free training, job safety regulations, etc.). Basically, these members reflect the ideological divide of the country as a whole.


Union members hold more wealth than non-union members

That reads like a union pamplet.

Very good. All movies are works of fiction.
But you can learn some things from fiction as well.

Unions do not have to run to keep their ability to represent the members.

This right here.

And it's going to be a shock if Trump wins and and union strikes are put down with National Guard, the way that Desantis wanted to solve things. Trump and company wants to go back to the "good ole days."
