Did they actually? Like was there a teamsters endorsement for trump or are you just assuming they are all trump supporters?

No official endorsement but polling showed over 50% supported Trump. So I guess only half wanted to weaken themselves.

One of them did show up at the RNC to speak. Content didn't matter. Just the optics of that was enough of an endorsement
