How about YOU TELL US why unions are so beneficial to conservatives, since you seem to defend them non-stop. Might be better than just personally attacking people here.

I can tell you the harm they do - they force ‘contributions’ from workers that go to the DNC (nearly all). They make it next to impossible to manufacture.

So, I’ve done my part, now your part: Please TELL US WHY conservatives should support labor unions? You’ve NEVER done that here - now is your big chance!!!

Conservatives should support a return to protectionism - just like our GOP ancestors. The unreasonable hatred of all things union and projecting unionism onto the entire workforce is both stupid and harmful harmful economically AND POLITICALLY. This wild eyed hatred is preventing much needed trade and industrial reform. Get it?

SO STOP FIGHTING THE LAST WAR. It's now ok to be pro US worker. Tell chamber of commerce losers to pack sand if they don't like it. Also stop conflating private and public sector unions. They are totally different beasts altogether.
