Contributing sentiments towards policy:

68% : "The former president has portrayed himself as supporting blue-collar workers, with the Teamsters president Sean O'Brien later saying that there's "no doubt" that Trump enjoys some support from union members.
52% : Trump has also made a play for union members, having met in January with officials in the Teamsters Union and saying afterward that although Republicans generally don't get backing from organized labor, "in my case it's different because I've employed thousands of Teamsters and I thought we should come over and pay our respects.
40% : Biden and Trump essentially split non-union households in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, meaning that the Democrat's edge with union households was likely a critical factor in his victory.
