Biden non existent rally crowds makes me ask the questions. Where’s the unions? Why isn’t the union leadership whipping up the muscle for Joe?

Joe’s team encourages people not to show up because of covid. Good excuse.

Biden’s campaign event in Hermantown Minnesota a couple of weeks ago was at a union training center and had a “crowd” of about 10 people.

Of course, the Biden campaign always says that it is limiting attendance to prevent the spread of COVID. If they knew that they could get thousands of wildly cheering people to show up, don’t you think they would go for it? What real campaign wants to talk to 10 people in a parking lot or make a speech in an empty hall with only the press as an audiance. They see that Trump is holding huge rallies day after day with little or no COVID spread. You also know that the media would make it their headline story day after day if there was COVID outbreaks among those attending Trump rallies.

They don’t have real rallies because they know no one is really interested in Biden or interested in what he has to say.

This is a great question. Usually union leadership push the democrat, and one would think Biden would be the type of candidate unions would like. Obviously there are many different kinds of unions, some of which wouldnt be threatened by all the work going to China. Any anecdotal stories on what their union leeaders or rank and file doing or saying differently this time?

Rank-and-file union members snub Biden for Trump
In some unions, especially the building trades, support for the president remains solid despite the efforts of labor leaders to convince members otherwise.

Biden falsely claims union endorsement during ABC town hall

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden pushed back at a town hall Thursday against suspicion from a boilermakers union member regarding his position on fracking by insisting that the union endorsed him, when no such endorsement appears to have been given

“The boilermakers overwhelmingly endorse me, okay?” Biden responded. “So the Boilermakers Union has endorsed me because I sat down with them, went into great detail with leadership, exactly what I would do, number one.”

The International Boilermakers Union, however, made it clear on its website that it has not endorsed anyone. The Local 154 endorsed President Trump in a September message from business leader John Hughes.

Where’s the unions?

It's like Biden's campaign doesn't need & doesn't want a live audience - the less public interaction the better. It's all a script, handled by professionals & actors, financed by entities in the shadows (mostly offshore?). Domestic enthusiasm isn't part of the formula.
