42% : This is a Republican Party fueled by union-busting billionaires who are convinced that hiring expensive law firms will run out the clock on workers who organize, and elected leaders like Trump who want to ensure that law enforcement and the judiciary will be on their side.
40% : Even Bezos and the Amazon management can ignore 30 seconds in a speech attacking their greed, as long as Trump delivers the elimination of an NLRB that continues to try to force them to the bargaining table, and tax policy that feeds corporate profits.
29% : Despite Sean O'Brien's support for Trump at the RNC, let's be clear: A second Trump term would not be a win for the labor movement.
