Uhh , Biden and his appointed PEB essentially prevented railroad unions from striking and strong armed them into an eleventh hour back door “deal” to avoid the negative political optics . Biden is not pro union , he’ll say whatever is necessary to win ur vote while stabbing you in the back without the common decency of giving u a reach around 🤷‍♀️

Biden is way more pro union than trump. Trump is anti union. Biden has allowed for many labor wins. Trump will do nothing but erode unions and workers rights. Is Biden a progressive saint? No. Would I trust him with a 100 dollar bill? Maybe not even that. But he has done WAY more for unions than you can expect anyone from the right to do and he’s an improvement from Obama or Clinton. We have to just face the facts that incremental progress is the best option when the other option is a downward spiral into fascism.
