Is this the same strike where the union leader is like friends with Trump? I’ve been feeling weird since I heard that because I’m all about workers striking but it seems like it might also be designed timing wise to make biden/harris look bad for the economy right before the election?
Even if that were true, you know what would make them not look bad? Doing the right thing in the first place.
EDIT:
Think about this from the reverse perspective: If you wanted to maximize your chances at success, it’s better to maximize the potential cost to businesses and governments for not listening to you.
The perspective of “You’re making us look bad by… showing the ways we’re not doing good.” Is a really backwards, elite-oriented way of understanding politics. Politicians are in theory supposed to serve the people, not the other way around.
That’s very true and i figured I’d get downvoted for asking, it’s just this election has me so nervous because it’s still such a toss up and people equate any (even perceived) economic downturn as being the fault of the current administration. I just wanted to know if anyone here had any more insight on the dude.
At the end of the day it’s all about the workers and i don’t mind suffering small inconveniences if it gets the wiring class better lives.

You’re right, we should just embrace Trump. He’s super pro union right? This will totally work out great for the working class.
Edit: I’ll add /s in here in case any idiots are reading.
Are you talking about the teamster’s union guy that voiced support for Trump? He got fucking roasted by everyone with a functional brain.
This is my fear as well. The timing is absolutely horrible.
