Workers describe tens of thousands of packages delayed—and a strong sense of empowerment within warehouses—after Amazon workers with the Teamsters launched the largest strike to date against one of the world's most powerful companies.
When strike breaker Harris abandoned the working class, what did you expect, exactly? Workers aren’t beholden to party, and since you people will never vote third party, sometimes you have to go with the generic neoliberal instead of the one with marketable aesthetics.
In a binary system, when one choice has abandoned all facade of supporting the largest union in the country … What do you suppose they do?
Trump is a simple creature, his last admin proved you can get downright progressive results by kissing his ass in a way that generates good publicity or profits. As a reminder Trump pardoned more nonviolent black prisoners than Biden has, because a set of rappers recognized his game and played it. Hell there’s a good chance Republicans are going to be the ones to legalize marijuana, not reschedule it, legalize it because they recognize how frustrated people are with Dems and it’s an easy, cheap, and ideologically consistent win.
How else do you think labor is going to get anywhere under a Trump regime? Have you already forgotten he and Elon joking about firing people for trying to unionize?
Trump can be bought and controlled cheaply. He commuted hundreds of sentences of prisoners that he is racist against, because people played to his ego.
That’s more hope than anyone had with Harris, who spent a career ensuring innocent people and non violent offenders got the max sentence for whatever dumbass bullshit her cops came up with.

I expected him to not kiss Trump’s ass, but I guess that’s asking far too much of a fucking labor leader.

Call for a general strike.
Great way to reduce membership numbers in a pretty violent way, also union membership isn’t high enough to be a real general strike.

The way the teamsters are going about it, making friends with and directly interacting with Trump.
You honestly think he cares? When has Trump ever had loyalty?
