Bill,
Teamsters just announced they are NOT endorsing Harris.
This confirms Peter Zaihan's view of a fundamental shift in political fault lines.

Democrats used to lock up the union vote, but that's no longer the case these days.

The Teamsters, it seems, are now in favor of more protectionism in order to protect their blue-collar workers, who are increasingly in favor of Trump-style policies.

I'm also sure that the Teamsters didn't like how the Democrats catered more and more to rich urban elitists, as well as elitists in academia.

We'll see how this plays out. It is noteworthy, though, that the Teamsters did NOT endorse Trump.

Instead, they took this opportunity to signal to the Democrats that they are done being allies with the "woke."
