The only President to ever walk a picket line, and the Teamster gives a high profile speech in favor of his opponent. Message sent. Since organized abor doesn't have the Democrats back, the Democrats should stop wasting their energy.
Yes, but Biden's still looking like a loser. O'Brien may be just hedging his bets, like corporations do. Also, long haul truckers listen to Right Wing radio, stuff like "Red Eye Radio" out of Dallas and broadcast nationally. They may be a force in the rank-and-file that must be appeased.
I get what you're saying, but it still feels like a betrayal of a guy who really stuck his neck out for him. With "allies" like this, the Democrats' problems are bigger than the identity of the presidential candidate.
Well, he said nice things about Trump, but so far no endorsement.

From my observations, long haul trucking is being taken over by non-white and women. Two local truck stops in my county are Indian restaurants.
Come to think of it, I've seen that too.

I agree that it sucks.
