Trump Is Freaking Out As Workers Quickly Flock To Joe Biden’s Campaign

"SNIP.....


Biden, of course, fired right back at Trump, saying he is “sick of this President badmouthing unions.”

Biden, of course, won the official endorsement of the International Association of Fire Fighters on Monday after the labor group declined to endorse Hillary Clinton in 2016 – a sign that workers are already flocking to the former vice president’s campaign.

The organization represents over 300,000 workers.

The economy continues the positive trend it’s been on since the Obama-Biden years

If the economy went from decline to growth over the course of Trump’s presidency, he might have a good reason to take credit for low unemployment numbers.

with someone like Buttigieg or Yang. And face it, these unions are still more white male than anything else, and I don't see them feeling comfortable in the same way with a female or most African Americans.

Some of them probably did feel comfortable with Trump in 2016. Most of this crowd, except for the hardcore wingnuts, will have woken up by now. Having a candidate like Biden they can turn to and still not have to face their discomfort ... that's a positive for us. Even as it is a sad state of affairs for this country.
