Him speaking at the RNC was not in and of itself bad--i heard him justify it later and he made some good points, that there are a lot of exploited workers in the base who could stand to hear the benefits of unions from a union leader instead of just hearing Fox propaganda. But to look at the tax cuts, the benefit cuts, and the tariff outcomes and double down on Trump makes it abundantly clear where his loyalties lie--his own pockets, and maybe his own prejudices.
Even if you accept he Senator Hawley story at face value, he completely loses the plot here:

He's right though, the GOP is absolutely at an inflection point where the authoritarianism seemed to have leveled out to "evil nanny state" levels and is now ramping all the way up to full blown Nazi.
I lol'd. I GUFFAWED at that third paragraph.
Trump literally owns the country club for elites
He works at a golf club? Wow how humble
At this point I'm starting to wonder if they have something on him. Of course, it could just be garden-variety corruption.
Flight logs to Epstein pedo-Island contains a wide variety of actual, now living, human creatures. Raping children is not a foreign concept for conservatives.
This is crazy. At best he himself has fallen for the propaganda. Gotta vote him out ASAP.
At best he realizes the average Teamster is the bedrock of MAGA and they'd rather leave the Teamsters than vote Dem.
What probably happened is he got a bribe.
It's crazy that such a toxic political party intent on hurting as many people as possible will ever help anyone who works with them. The teamsters are being driven by a man that will steal their benefits, protections, and cut their pay permanently.
What's with these top union people being so blatantly stupid, näive and gullible? The conservatives of pretty much every western country are liars, all of them. How stupid do you have to be to believe the word of people who lie so much it's basically their brand at this point.

so greedy they'll sell their children out for more.
That formatting. Ugh. I'm all for use of ~~bold~~, underline and italic so long as they're creative. Dude wouldn't even use italics because he thinks they aren't white enough ffs
I knew he was nuts, but my god, that font choice! Did he type that on a 1920s typewriter?
Also he's a fucking scumbag.
teamsters have always been conservative leaning compared to other unions, police unions dont count as they arnt a true union.
This is not surprising given any previous interactions with teamsters management. I thought they were slimy and I was on the corporate side of the equation.
Also to be clear fuck corps, hurray unions.
Where's the mob when you need them
The mob was and is conservative.
The mob is currently behind the guy in the white house, at least they have been through all his businesses historically.
Well a mob.
The mob is the Sicilian mob but Donnie is in with the Russians.
Work Reform
A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.
