Painters’ union leader Jimmy Williams Jr says that the Democrats have a messaging problem with working-class voters — and it isn’t just going to cost them a single election.
Wasn’t Biden the first sitting president to join the picket line? Didn’t Trump and Elon joke about killing the Unions? Seems it’s like the union workers need to wake up. Tired of pointing fingers. The unions have abandoned the democratic party. They grabbed Trump by the hand because he promised victimism.
Since the two analyses give different results we can’t say who gained ground and who lost it, but either way the fact that most union workers voted for Harris, despite her unpopularity with low-income people. It’s simply not possible to blame union workers for the results in this election. I mean the second article you linked is pretty clear on why Harris didn’t get the 100% you seem to be expecting.
These union workers don’t have an economic anxiety
My man I’m sorry but this is the stupidest take I’ve seen this month. The whole country is anxious about how they’ll pay their bills and the Democrats offered nothing to help with that. Trump made (false) promises about the economy and that’s how he won.
So these union workers were upset that the sitting president wanted to march with them in their strike? He personally didn’t let the forced breaking stop his administration from getting the union’s demands?
These Union Workers looked at the union busting Trump and Vance and said “Yep!”
They don’t live in reality. If they did they’d realize that through a Harris administration they’d have the upper hand when organizing against unfair labor practices and the corporate foot soliders.

Um… Union workers voted for Harris. Like seriously look it up before speaking.

Dems lost ground and Trump picked up a not a small amount. They are voting against their self interests.

Democrats try not to blame everyone else but their party challenge go.
Blaming people that don’t live in reality should be expected.
These union workers don’t have an economic anxiety. They have a racism, sexism, bigotism, vicitmism problem.

He walked with them AFTER forcing a bad contract on all rail workers.
Lets not just look at the last thing he did on unions.
