Fuck Biden, but I can understand why a union member would think he’s pro labor. His reputation doesn’t really involve labor in either way. But, before Trump was president, the number 1 reason why people liked him because he was a piece of shit who cheats, cons, and lies. He was the people’s asshole because his whole demeanor was cartoonish enough for people to not believe he was a real human being. Why would you believe someone with this reputation will help you lmao
Because Trump still says reasonable things once in a while that is not completely detached from reality. The bar is that low. Desperate people will believe in anything.
It’s the same reason why many people in China and Russia like Trump, because once in a while he says stuff like this (there is even a tag that says this clip was the 12th most popular video on Bilibili at one point).
Like today in the middle of his speech where he said no taxes on tips or social security benefits.............before diving right back to anti-immigrant racism
I thought the majority of Chinese people who like Trump because he’s an idiot who tries to punish China but ultimately fails and benefits China instead
That too. American politics is more like an entertainment in China haha.
I think at least since COVID its clear its as much anti-Biden than pro-Trump. For both of them actualy its more about what the opposition says or does than your own rethoric, not to deny that is important, but clearly some people vote more based on what they hate the most.
So we look back and Biden spent 4 years gaslighting people that everything is fine even if your rent doubled. They repeat Fed shit through the liberal media as if people not only understand but agree with all the punching left/down they're doing.
"Inflation is under control", "robust jobs market", "excess savings" lol you know the memes I'm sure.
Look at the OP, Biden won the Teamsters membership vote before he dropped out by 8%, now Kamala's losing the same vote by like 30%.
