Maybe the union bosses are finally starting to listen to the rank and file...

There's hope...

...any official meeting is nothing but seeking a deal of some sort...

I think it is possible they wish to clarify, nail down and assure themselves that he will renegotiate NAFTA and stop poorly regulated trucks and drivers from May-he-co operating in the USA.

While I’m sure this is probably the Teamsters telling the Dems they want one of the other libs other than Hillary, a Republican getting a major labor union endorsement (and the follow through on election day) would be a huge coup vote-wise.

I think some of that pixie dust has come back.

Yep, it's an odd thing.

Maybe Donald will cut a deal - on the Q.T. - to raise the minimum wage for fed union workers higher than Hillary will.

And we should go, yea! Go!

This could well be a gamechanger! This could well mean a president Trump! They are all about Jobs—they have much in common. Getting rid of illegals would help the Unions a great deal. More factories built—more Union Jobs and Union Dues! What has Progressives done for Unions of late? Zip!

Yeah, and if these Unions were supporting Cruz, you’d be falling all over yourself speaking of how it’s a positive, and how Cruz is changing minds.

Your shtick gets old.

Keep telling yourself that, you still know you’re only greasing your own crack.

“A lot of union members would have benefited from the Keystone pipeline, which Hillary now opposes.”

Thousands of high paying, long term union jobs. Yeah boy! The unions will love Hillary, or the old fossil communist...or the Court Jester : )

The energy industry is in full panic mode thanks to Obama and the unions that elected him.

Maybe they finally learned their lesson...except it may be too late.

Coal mines around PA and WV are closing in droves.

"Coal mines around PA and WV are closing in droves."

Yes, a result of the big push by government-linked investors for switching power plants to natural gas. Behind the phony environmentalist fronts are crooked, government-connected businesses that use government to prevent competition--all socialists.

Teamsters.. NOT supporting the democoms, and potentially supporting THE master of Big Business...

Pragmatism wins the day.

And he knows how to talk to these people - he actually worked for a living... unlike the professional politicians.
