    Well that was an uninspiring read.

    At several sessions, a leader of the donation portal ActBlue shared a “fight song” that the party could adopt, putting its lyrics on screens so that the crowds could sing along.

    D-E-M-S, we rise!
    Stronger together — blue skies!
    Lift your voice, we’re bold and true,
    Onward, Democrats — We shine blue!

    So what I’m taking away from that is they stand for aviation? and being loud, shiny and blue? Checks out.

      That vote is lost.

      The Teamsters supported Trump 58 to Harris’s 31 after Biden withdrew (who was 44.3 to 36.3)

      You know what the real difference was between them, and it wasn’t Biden’s mediocre union support.

        Let’s go back to 90s with free trade agreements, EFCA miss under Obama, PRO act not going anywhere, declining union membership, oligarchy levels of inequality… like any politician worth listening to should be able to figure this out.

        If you still want to paint people who work at a company like Ford, seeing what Trump has done with tariffs and calling their vote anything other than a desired union policy outcome. I am not sure what to say.
