A shocking snub for Kamala Harris from the Teamsters Union. She has become the first Democratic candidate in nearly 30 years to lose its endorsement.

this still so funny and it shows that even if Biden was sleepy people did like him more that Kamala cuz unlike Kamala people voted for Biden

Over 82 million people voted for her, please try to stick to facts instead of disinformation.

His post wasn't disinfo he was speaking specifically about internal voting by members of the Teamsters' union to determine the union's endorsement, not general (official) election. The members of the Teamsters were favoring Biden approx 44% to 36% when Biden was still the presumptive nominee. When Harris became the actual (D) nominee, the Teamsters members' voting flipped to 60% Trump, 34% Harris.

If I was a member of the Teamsters union I'd probably be pissed that the union's leadership isn't willing to honor the intent of its membership and endorse the candidate they overwhelmingly voted for. But I'm not a member of the Teamsters union and their internal election isn't the 'real' election, so I don't really gaf about this.

You'd have to be really stupid to be a part of any union and be pro-Trump, he's been a union buster his entire life. The only exception perhaps being police unions, because those are in place to keep the working class under foot and remind everybody they can kill you without consequence.

Can someone with a sane head on their shoulders explain how "demolding the United States economy" is supposed to fix the United States economy?
I'm (also) going to try..

Let's say there's this glorious US corporation (A) that sells apples. I'm the foreigner with an evil marxist company (B) that also sells apples in the us. Thanks to capitalism and expanding, we end up being the only two sources that sell apples. Because i keep prices low (or rather: modest profits) , A has to keep his price low or end up not selling them.

Now if I'm prohibited from partaking in this, A can effectively set the price, crank up profits, invest in automation to reduce work costs, and get more profits for fewer people. And so on until the CEO becomes an economics advisor that explains why his situation is so good for the economy that he deserves tax breaks.

What's that? The perspective of people squeezed out of working or buying apples? Yeah... It sucks to be them. But it's not like anyone pretends they matter. :tpi:

The fact that anyone still supports Trump blows my mind. At what point do you get off the proverbial sinking ship?
Problem is that it's less about what they support and more about what they're against. They align themselves with Trump for the same reasons they still align themselves with the confederacy, despite the fact that both are fucking losers to the nth degree. They hate modern America and want to return to a time when only land-owning, white Christian men could vote. Southern Strategy, through and through. Never mind the fact that most of idiots supporting that ideology wouldn't even pass the purity tests themselves.

The fact that American citizens still support a woman while the threat of war looms at any moment astounds me.
Do The United States want to bow before Putin, China, and North Korea? Do they want wokeism to make them vulnerable, sterile, and above all...Stupid? Next time, Captain America will be a transgender without balls and US Citizens will applause!! :hrth: At that time, I will laugh at them and feel a bit sorry for them and for the World.....

What does the gender have to do with anything? The former president will do anything for a few dollars and Kamala has a history of prosecuting scumbags like him.

@gudenau think 2 times can you?...Is there a war environment at the moment?​

Is there a violence environment at the moment? yes/no (Some wars are on globe, North Korea keeps doing exercices, you know?)​

Be true....Do women or transgenders have proven good in solving anything in those time? Yes/no? I'll help you, answer is no, we don't live in game of throne with a Khaleesi, if that happened...We'll have to sadly stab in the heart​

:). To some....Churchill, Roosevelt, Charles de Gaule weren't senile, sorry for you the only one that was you removed it from the game for this reason and should do the same for the "replacement part".

Also....like Harry is a no good replacement to William, Kamala is a no good replacement to Biden ^^

I get the feeling that people are voting for Trump, not for an idea of making their lives better, but to make the lives of those they don't like worse.
