The thousand union workers he encouraged to draw blood when fighting to continue to bankrupt the states they are in with high salaries and benefits paid for by others won't hear this turnaround and he knows it.
Mission accomplished.
If the unions took the 30-50 million or so they spend every year on political ads etc (always supporting leftists/democrats)and used it to refund some dues the union people would be much better off.
But of course if they workers complained about all the graft by the union bosses, they would probably get bloodied themselves.

They spent more than that just on Jerry Brown last year.
