You and I can agree on a lot of things about labor. I’m sure as we are both teamsters. The average worker does not understand what the NLRB even does. The fact is, we have to live in the real world now the Democrat party did such a horrible job with messaging the last four years and focused on retribution. It turned most of America off. I warned about this continually throughout the last four years. Donald Trump is president now the only thing we can do is hold his feet or at least his parties feet to the fire and hope he does what he promised for labor even though he has a poor record. Apparently, many people felt the Democrats record wasn’t much better……
Donald Trump’s ‘Blue Wall’ victories key to taking back the White House
Donald Trump won Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan, the three key “Blue Wall” states Democrats had counted on to keep the White House.

There must be a reason for this, and I do not believe it is because Trump was the best candidate ever. The Democrats may have been the worst this time. They must do better and change their messaging.

More labor friendly isn’t saying much about the Republican Party. They just know they need to tell the clapping seals what they want to hear, but those big union bills will never get passed by republicans even with the outliers who are allowed to vote alongside democrats for optics. Push comes to shove those voting alongside democrats will find an excuse not to support unions with bills like the pro act if the republicans need the votes to stop it.

Unfortunately, some very big bills do not pass with Democrats either.
with both parties labor is almost always second fiddle or an afterthought to throw a bone to. I am doubtful it will change with Republicans in charge as well. It’s even harder for private unions now because we’re such a small minority of voters. They care less and less for us as we do not have billions to donate.

They don’t pass because republican threaten with the filibuster. Look at the pro act, democrats did not have a filibuster proof majority to pass that in the senate. It was nothing but democrats even carrying it that far.Unfortunately, some very big bills do not pass with Democrats either.

And I can promise you this because they knew it would not pass, if you understand how these people vote, you will understand everything is strategic and for show. Just like I agree with you there will be some strategic Republicans who vote yes this time. Personally I do not believe either side wants unions to have very much power. They want to keep the power to themselves.

Unions themselves are also to blame. Some.seems more involved with trannies in the workplace, identity politics, and supporting Democrats no matter what, etc, than their own union rank and file.
Just look at the outrage Tough Guy faced for meeting with President Trump. One simply does not do such a thing. You automatically endorsed the Democrat, making any electoral clout disappear. It's a given.

I’ve personally been involved with union politics for almost 20 years. I’ve never once seen the union endorse or give money because of wedge issues like transgender. I would agree that donations do go to Democrats a lot more at the state level because depending on your state very few Republicans will talk to labor. That is changing slowly.

I liked the teamsters tweeting out "no justice no peace" while animals were rioting and burning down cities across the country. Made me feel like they're really prioritizing our members lol.

Wouldn’t put much stock into a tweet, and I have no idea who was in charge of tweeting guarantee it wasn’t Jimmy Hoffa Junior.

I doubt they were anywhere near the Hoffa administration, they probably had some kid in charge of Twitter at that time.
