news Teamsters President: "Harris told our members: 'I'm gonna win - with or without you'"

[Communion]

[YellowRibbon]

He and his fellow union members will eat sh*t now. We cheered!

[MAKSIM]

The teamsters president who is worse than Kamala Harris ?

[cuteboyzay]

We love a determine and talented black woman. 

[Distantconstellation]

Ok let's be fair here. HARRIS gets the blame for immigration, price of groceries and everything else that went on during the Biden administration. Fine. But you also then have to give credit her for all the good stuff that happened during Bidens administration. 

 

Let's specifically focus on Unions because this is what the interview was about. 

Bidens strongest area was when it came to being pro-worker, pro-union. He saved the teamsters pensions. Walked a picket line. Trump is a known union-buster and was cackling with Elon Musk on twitter about firing workers and not wanting to pay overtime. Not a peep from this dude about that. Nothing.

She and her team were arrogant. Every few weeks they were telling one group of ppl or another they didn't need them to win or pave a path to victory. It was insane. Especially her doubling down on her racism towards Palestinians by refusing a generic establishment Palestinian democratic Georgia politician to even endorse her at the DNC Convention(her name was Ruwa Roman). Insane strategy that led her to failure when she honestly had a pretty good chance at winning with more time (thanks Biden) and a better strategy…oh well.

Kamala is such a fraud. I should've never given her my vote and skipped the question like I planned originally. She and Biden, among many others, have completely destroyed the Democratic Party and the country.

[Into The Void]

Can we put this in the past. Election has come and gone. 

[Johnny Cash]

She really was just another Hillary everyone who pushed the "vote blue no matter who" to support clowns like this and Biden literally ruined the country

[GraceRandolph]

The fact that the Harris campaign admitted their own internal polling showed they were on track to lose and yet they acted like a win was guaranteed and kept asking us for more money.

Harris genuinely had nothing to do with Biden's meager labor successes, and was poised to follow Mark Cuban's lead by undoing nearly all of it and firing Lina Khan from the FTC  

 

Walking a picket line is meaningless fluff that didn't do anything. Trump even counter-programmed by speaking at a non-unionized manufacturer, got mocked by liberals for doing so, and still ended up being positioned as a working class hero. Why?

 

Most workers aren't unionized due to union-busting neoliberal policies carried out by Republicans and Democrats alike. Democrats are also deeply associated with NAFTA even though it was negotiated by George HW Bush, because Clinton was the one that oversaw it going through and hollowing out industrial towns throughout the country. And so, to that end, Democrats will always be seen as POISON to the working class of America. Especially since they saw fit to exile Bernie supporters from the party by calling them toxic, misogynistic bros and rejecting all their hopes and dreams for a better future.

 

There's a reason the demographics that Bernie appealed to the most are the ones who fled the Democratic Party under the leadership of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. And it's not because Joe was "the most pro-labor president since FDR." If anything, Joe Biden delivered far more for union bosses than union workers. Which is reflected in the endorsements that him and Kamala both received.

[Gov Hooka]

Look at the way her dumbass supporters/shitlib dem sycophants attempted to get votes from the left. The arrogance and self righteousness underlying their constant deflection to hide their shameless lack of any principle is what caused them to lose.

If she really said this, that's embarrassing af considering her internal polling never showed her ahead of her opponent. I can't with the elaborate public facade of her wanting to "earn the votes" but she was talking to union officials like this in private? She really must have just said, "**** it, I'm losing this anyway so y'all can choke." And I don't see how she's actually considering another run in 2028 if this is how she was burning bridges with undecideds behind the scenes.

The way you just created this random scenario in your head and consider it fact.

She gets away with this behavior and wanting to run again because she knows her base isn't union workers. Or even working class people at all. They are multi-millionaire donors.

 

And Democrats, unfortunately, don't even credit her for her loss. They're fully scapegoating Joe Biden, which gives her the leeway she needs to be able to run again, even though she lost much worse than Hillary Clinton, who didn't have that same luxury.

She will lose with a bigger margin next time if the core issues are not addressed

It seems pretty clear the Democrats aren't worried about winning or losing. They care about being a money laundering racket for wealthy donors. If they win, it's purely by accident.

[RihRihGirrrl]

Yeah I don't believe this....if there's one message she consistently hit on it was the whole 'I don't believe I have anyone's vote, I have to work for every vote'. Whether or not she meant it is another story but I don't think she would've been that blatantly arrogant especially considering her internal polls never showed her winning the race.

The nerve of a shitlib calling anyone else a class traitor A guy you all want to get fcked by kills a CEO and you think that desire's sufficient class politics.

I don't think the left or the right have adopted the correct approach TBH.
