After Trump’s America First agenda, how are the Teamsters endorsing Biden?

Seems like this President has been the most pro Labor president in quite some time. An America first economic agenda seems to fall right inline with traditional Labor values.

Many of the other major Midwest Unions are endorsing Trump.

Is this a case of Union leadership being out of touch with the workers? Seems like the Beltway Bosses have lost touch with the field they represent.

Well don’t they vote for these yahoos into office? Seems like a bunch of shenanigans.

Also, this should probably be another thread but...it would be interesting to discuss the breakpoints of where Union is beneficial. I’m not sure exactly where that is nowadays...low wage earners?

Exactly. An endorsement from teamsters leadership is not worth sh1t unless you have the backing of the union itself. Trump has got the Union endorsement...not the leader’s endorsement. Big difference

A great deal of money changes hands between the DNC and union leaders.

Unions are corrupt. Democrats are corrupt.

Mob bosses ban together. Biden emails proves he is one of them.

Pennsylvania Boilermakers told Biden to kiss off.

Manufacturing doesn't really have an effect on the trucking business. Wherever stuff is made, it still has to be hauled. That's not how I look at it, but many do.

I want to see our manufacturing kicking arse.

PA Union: Biden Is Lying. We Didn't Endorse Him.


During Joe Biden's town hall with ABC News' George Stephanopoulos on Thursday, the former vice president said Boilermakers Local 154, located in Pittsburgh, endorsed him. The union, however, said that's the furthest thing from the truth.

When Biden made the claim, former Congressman Lou Barletta (R-PA), shared Boilermakers Local 154's endorsement letter from early September, clearly showing the union supports President Trump.
