Freaking idiots. (Somewhat) Laissez Faire Capitalism vs State-Controlled and Owned production. And they want the commies. We’ll all be driving UAW-built Ladas and Yugos if Harris wins.

"...showing most members support Trump."

At least they admitted the obvious. That's endorsement enough.

“The International Brotherhood of Teamsters declined to endorse a presidential candidate on Wednesday after releasing internal polling that showed a majority of its members supported former President Donald Trump over Vice President Kamala Harris.”

I bet my house that if “the majority of the teamster’s union supported Kamala” they (teamster’s spokesperson) would endorse for her!

Idiots.

They will not submit because “about 60% of members believed the union should endorse Trump?”

They are going to spend a lot of time pouting in the corner because that 60% is liable to go up when the election is a couple of weeks away.

LGB’s handlers will be EOing everything in sight, authority or not, needed or not, wanted or not.

The problem here is with the corruption union leadership knowing they will place their power and positions at risk if they openly defy the rank and file by endorsing Harris. So they decline to support a candidate in the hopes that the next time they are up for their own election the union members will keep re-electing the incumbents.

The BS reality of Unions: The hands support conservatives and republicans in majority. The union heads support Dims.
The hands want the actual work. The heads support the lies of the Dims.
This is my union, 100%. And what it’s like in 3 others around the area that I know of.

“ā€œUnfortunately, neither major candidate was able to make serious commitments to our union to ensure the interests of working people are always put before Big Business,ā€ Teamsters President Sean O’Brien said in a statement.

Two thirds of your members want Trump..,you lousy prick.

If the union members did not have their paychecks forcibly raided for membership dues, I believe there would be more transparency from both the so-called "leadership" and the rank-and-file members, about their true feelings towards politics and political candidates.

Alas, there isn't and as long as that state of things continues, there will never be change.

Union shops, union bennies and union paychecks, at the expense of union members and non-union members, and of course the underlying structural bribes, graft and treason.

I once had a job where there was a lot of Electricians Union guys. They’d crack me up around election time. The left rear bumper of their pickup had a sticker on it, “Vote Clinton/Gore” The right side had a sticker, “I’m The NRA and I Vote.” Never could “wrap my head around that.”

I’m getting more and more vibes of a repeat from 2016, when Trump underpolled a lot, because of all the Trump-bashing that was going on. And the bashing is even worse this time around.
