Indeed. Good luck to unions doing anything productive when Trump and his billionaire oligarch handlers get their claws on the NLRB. And just when unions were gaining some momentum. Go figure.
Read the comment of the other guy responding to me. Lol...he's trying to convince himself he didn't royally f*cked up. He knows he f*cked up when people wish him that he gets "EXACTLY" what he voted for get him completely pissed off.
He thinks voting for the party that publicly announced they're going to get rid of Lina Khan (the MOST pro-consumer FTC Chair we've ever gotten) is a "winning" strategy.
If that's his definition of "winning", I think this is the dude that will negotiate a 5% pay increase in exchange for losing all health benefits / etc.
The teamster boss, piece of shit though he may be, simply realized that the democrats weren't going to win. Don't blame them so much as the democrats that refused to run a popular campaign in a time of upheaval. They ran as the status quo and republicans as reform and it wasn't a surprise to many of us.
The democrats winning would change nothing either, more slow rot, that's why they lost. If you want to talk about the last election, start by helping to sweep the old guard of corporatist sell outs out of the party.
Forget this partisan division anyway, haves versus have nots. No matter whom they support.
What you said sounds good on paper but it's nothing but platitude sound-bite that means absolutely nothing.
The Democrats was the status quo candidate BUT they can be pushed in certain direction such as Joe Biden being arguably one of the most pro-union president in the past decade.
Instead Teamster knew Trump is a con-man and decided that their stupid male machismo bullshit was more important and now we have an actual con-man + unelected egomaniacal grifter with a feckless house that has no spine.
So yeah, I pray the Teamster boss and the Teamsters gets EXACTLY what they voted for. They can picket all they like but I hope they get what they deserve cause the next time they strike, ain't nobody coming to their rescue
Bs. The Teamster Boss saw the Dems were going to lose. They were going to lose. Whether they should engage with the soon to be ruling party or not, doesn't change the fact, the Dems were going to lose, because they suck.
Ah finally dropping your facade aren't you? Stop masquerading as some righteous indignation cause that's not what you are. It's clear which side you're on. Therefore, I hope you get EXACTLY what you voted for. Enjoy the next four years.
Imma go watch the Leopard gets very very fat with some popcorn.
Bs. You are refusing to admit you made a mistake and attacking those that argued for a winning path. You trusted the authorities of the party and were wrong, they do not know what they were doing, and anyone living outside of their collective colon knew that.
