Will the GOP's union push pay off in November? - Washington Examiner

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

66% : Not only that, but the Teamsters released internal polling that found nearly 60% of its members back Trump, with Vice President Kamala Harris's support in the low 30s.
55% : But some on the Right now argue that free trade has rewarded the unfair practices of hostile nations like China and that domestic unions often embrace progressive political priorities that go far beyond supporting workers, such as backing climate change resolutions, advocating social justice, or calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.
52% : Sometimes, that tension plays out within a single candidate, such as Trump's inviting O'Brien to speak at the RNC and then praising Musk for strikebreaking.
47% : "Trump didn't get that, but he did benefit from something that hadn't happened in 28 years -- the International Brotherhood of Teamsters chose not to endorse the Democratic presidential nominee.
39% : I mean, I look at what you do," Trump told Musk.
38% : But this election cycle, Trump and his party have been overtly trying to win working-class voters and union members, who are traditionally a core Democratic constituency.
37% : Just get your union guys, your leaders, to endorse me," Trump said at a campaign stop in Michigan in September 2023, promising that his policies would save auto industry jobs.
21% : Even this year, Trump got on the union's bad side when he praised Elon Musk for firing workers who threatened to strike.
