UAW's Victory And Joe Biden's Curse
UAW's Victory And Joe Biden's Curse
The president catches hell easily; his successes often go ignored
Most union-friendly president in 40 years. Which is perhaps more damning about the state of American politics for the past 40 years, but fuck, man, I'll take what improvements I can get. Even the longest journeys begin with a single step.
I think he might be the most union friendly president period. FDR busted a federal employee union, but I don't think he ever joined a picket line
Glad he didn't work with Congress to break this strike.
That's only a thing with unions that are covered by the railway labor act rather than the NLRA
Good thing he also worked to get those rail strikers everything they wanted, then did nothing to make sure anybody knew.
Another article trying to give Biden credit for the UAW's work.
Why not just say he makes cars while we're at it?
Most union president in decades, first ever to visit the picket line; but go ahead and tell us that union wins are not his wins and his wins are not union wins. It is a massive step in the right direction, further supported by Bernie and his progressives
They don’t agree 1:1 by ANY means, but it’s not just Biden pointing and saying “I did that” either. Your comment is disingenuous at best
Most union president in decades
That bar has been lying on the ground for decades. Clearing it is not an accomplishment.
first ever to visit the picket line; but go ahead and tell us that union wins are not his wins
He did a photo op, therefore he deserves the credit for work he didn't do? Absurd. Article doesn't even mention Shawn Fain.
The sun came up this morning. Did Biden cause the Earth to turn?
