That's how you put that Trump University degree to good use.

You want them to be told that they should vote for certain candidates. They are smarter than you think and can make their own decisions.

Apparently 40% are not smart enough to be voting for more of the same.

Some pertinent details from the WP article:

*The Teamsters have already donated a substantial amount to the Dem party:

"The Teamsters have donated more than $800,000 so far this election cycle, with more than 92 percent going to Democratic PACs, according to OpenSecrets, a nonprofit that tracks campaign finance."

Shows that Teamsters are still Democrats, but that they just do not like Kamala Harris.

It's over. :/

To be fair, does anyone really want her? I think they installed her just as a throw-away candidate. They wanted Newsome, but knew he couldn't win with Trump, so put him in the rotation for later.

Yeah, when they ousted Biden and installed Harris without a single vote from the public, such Democracy, much choice. Talk about a corrupt organization.

They don’t support one Democrat bill, so that means they are anti-worker?

They don’t support unions, that means they are anti-worker.

Unions no longer support workers, only the government. So what does that make unions?

Divided and gullible as heck.

The state of humanity throughout the ages.

It's like those lower income tools who got healthcare under Obama and still vote Republican due to their hate, because they sure as hell don't have the bank to vote Republican.

The fact that you immediately jump to this conclusion is disturbing. What’s even more disturbing is that I see a penchant from Harris throughout her time as VP and through the campaign to either explicitly or implicitly promote the idea that legitimate criticism of her can only be the result of racism or racism or both.

In this case, it has nothing to do with either and Harris knows it. Why does she know it? Because tne of the reasons why unions do not trust Harris is that her brother in law is an Uber exec who was the leading force to defeat the CA state referendum to treat drivers as workers. He is also her most trusted adviser to her campaign. His role in her campaign is directly and specifically reported as one of the key reasons why the Teamsters refuse to endorse her.

Kamala Harris is a deeply cynical politician that uses and weaponizes race and gender to suit her needs and deflect blame (see 2019 primary debate attack on Biden). You should be very careful about being a useful fool for her.

Hmmmm

Right wingers are freaking out about Trump’s Labor Secretary pick btw.

Didn’t a Trump appointed judge just rule against overtime pay in court, like yesterday?

[Anonymous]

Oh they will break the unions. It is a smart move to cash in while you can.
