He’s using metaphors. They are pretty good.
I would have said Dems are the party of taxi MEDALLIONS and unions. With the medallion system, you need to get government permission to be in the business, you have to pay a HUGE fee to the government, and the government artificially rations the supply below demand. None of these things exist in the free-wheeling world of Lyft and Uber.
Trump didn’t run to promote a gig economy. He explicitly ran to bring back good, full time manufacturing jobs - the kind of jobs that Bush and Clinton allowed to go overseas and to Mexico. Bringing those jobs back is what the Republican Party under Trump is about. Branding the GOP instead as the Uber party takes us back to the pre-Trump years, the Bush-McCain-Romney years, when we consistently lost the blue collar voters that Trump won
Crenshaw sounds like a Bush Republican. A loser
You are espousing ignorance on taxi regulation, likely sourced from MSM.
It is a distinct minority of municipalities which utilize the medallion system.
In my state, cities regulated their taxi services well. Then suddenly Uber rode in on its horse and broke laws, bribed officials, utilized software to deceive investigators and undertook a media campaign to generate public support for a system which has rocked locally-owned companies and family wage jobs in favor of a system which is - in reality - FAR from what Uber’s media campaign says it is...
Furthermore, Libs/dems supported ridesharing wholesale. In my state they rolled over like a bitch for uber.
If you are not ignorant, you failed to clarify your comment. I have 5 years of research & writing on this topic to the tune of nearly over 500 hours; I know this topic very, very well.
Clearly Crenshaw should think before ‘speaking’ on twitter, as he he’ll look plain silly with an eye patch and a foot in his mouth.
