    It’s cool that he got rid of that piece of shit trump appointee, but he hasn’t done anything else for unions since.

    Of course the teamsters not supporting him is because of corruption, it’s not like he’s blatantly anti-union in speech and in action or anything. Why doesn’t everyone else also hate him? That’s the real question.

    They got a small portion of the sick leave they asked for. Quietly. Months after Biden very publicly shut down the strike. This is not a Biden w, no matter how hard you try to sell it as one.

    Is there anything else I should know about? I didn’t know about the first bit, that’s pretty neat ig, but it doesn’t change the fact that Biden being “pro-union” is a blatant lie. It’s like saying the IDF is the most moral military, literally anyone not completely indoctrinated by liberal propaganda is gonna see right through that and call bs on it. Being only slightly shitty to one union does not make him pro union, unless you’re telling me every other president has union members regularly executed and Biden is just relatively pro-union compared to that

    If he’s done more than one good thing for unions, I’d love to hear it. Make sure you put as much snark in there as possible, and call me a trump supporter and a troll for not 100% sharing your opinions :3

      It is, indeed. What do you think is the answer? Why so many unions are coming out to go to bat for him?

      Is there anything else I should know about?

      Here’s a pretty good list. It’s fair; the ones I sent were a little short on specific details.

        Thank you for the list, there’s cool stuff on there I didn’t know about :3 it also reminded me of non-compete agreements getting nuked recently, that’s another very cool thing. Most of it seems to just be undoing stuff trump did, but that + other good things is nice in my book.

        Sorry for being a sarcastic asshole about this. Most biden supporters I’ve seen don’t know much pro-labor stuff he’s done other than spinning the rail strike into a good thing and crying bad faith if you disagree, I shouldn’t have assumed you were the same way
