No Presidential Endorsement by Teamsters in 2024

Those Teamster leaders have been in place for a while, so it's the rank and file that are becoming disillusioned with Democrats and their perverted policies favoring the rich elitists.

You're witnessing a major political realignment, where the working class folks are shifting away from an increasingly radical Democratic Party that embraces sexual filth, caters to the wealthy and supports foreign entanglements.

But I see that you are so embedded in your cult that you refuse to believe the polling that the Teamsters did themselves.

Pretending that you were ever a Republican is a joke now.

If you have a better explanation, let's hear it.

Probably because the leadership doesn't really support Trump (they have been critical of some of his comments and policies) and you have some locals that have endorsed Harris; the national leadership doesn't want to piss off the membership. It's not that complicated.

This is the first Presidential race they haven't endorsed in since 1996, only the 3rd time it's happened since 1960:

Yeah, he spoke, and then came out and criticized him over his comments to Musk (that's in the link). He wasn't exactly effusive at the RNC either.
Exactly as I said: "Probably because the leadership doesn't really support Trump (they have been critical of some of his comments and policies) and you have some locals that have endorsed Harris; the national leadership doesn't want to piss off the membership. It's not that complicated."

Some of the locals are endorsing Harris, while obviously a large number of the rank and file support Trump.

It's not as if they've never endorsed a Republican; the last one was George H. W. Bush. But there's clearly a divide within the union. Easiest way to avoid conflict and not piss off your members is to not endorse and let the locals and rank and file do what they want.

LMAO.. THAT'S gonna leave a mark  ..

Yeah, that's SOOOO completely different from what I said: 

Here's the real point of the union's lack of endorsement:

From April 9-July 3, nearly 300 Teamsters local unions nationwide conducted first-of-their-kind Presidential town halls, soliciting endorsement preferences from members via straw polls. The in-person voting was held prior to Biden’s withdrawal from the race. The Teamsters’ polling data shows members backed Biden 44.3 percent to Trump’s 36.3 percent.

Following the Republican National Convention and Biden’s campaign exit, the Teamsters commissioned a national electronic poll of its 1.3 million members, overseen by an independent third party. During a voting window from July 24-Sept. 15, rank-and-file Teamsters voted 59.6 percent for the union to endorse Trump, compared to 34 percent for Harris.

In the past week, following the Democratic National Convention and recent Presidential debate, the Teamsters commissioned independent polling firm Lake Research Partners to conduct the union’s final national survey. In the poll ending Sept. 15, Teamsters selected Trump by 58 percent for endorsement over 31 percent for Harris.

According to the Teamsters, Harris is toxic and getting more so.  Biden was up on Trump in Teamster poling before he was forced out, with only 36.3% for Trump vs Biden.  Biden would have likely carried the Teamsters and gotten the endorsement of the union if he'd stayed in the race.  Only when fake, incompetent Harris became the pick did the Teamsters support for the Democrats crater.

This is a potential sign of the hidden majority that has rejected Harris and have a sour taste because she was anointed as the candidate.

I was trying to get YOU to understand the deeper meaning that I just educated you on, but as usual, shallow thinkers like you come to shallow conclusions.  Your narrative is so weak that you had to make up the "though that poll suggests that it is an unequal divide, the reality is that it is likely much closer to equal" fiction rather than look at the real facts.
