I don't know why people are surprised. The Republican party gave us the wonderful Right to Work legislation that is designed to break unions.
I'm a Teamster and there are motherfuckers who vote republican in our union. Literally voting against the Union that gives us healthcare, a living wage, and protection against unjust retaliation. Stupid bastards.
Nearly everyone in my union votes republican, it blows my mind, I try to explain that they are voting against their own self interest and they flatly refuse to believe history, facts, logic, etc.
But what about the ~~blacks~~ ~~Mexicans~~ ~~gays~~ ~~CRT~~ ~~globalists~~ ~~blm~~ ~~coastal elites~~ ~~antifa~~ transes? I've never actually seen one in the flesh, but the man on the news said they'll take everything from us - you'll see...
I've represented a lot of union workers when they get hurt. Hands down, every time workers' comp. legislation comes up, it's Republicans that are trying to gut benefits as a handout to insurance companies.
He's saying what ALL these Republicans are thinking.
Which begs the question, how in the ever living fuck are people still voting for them?! They have made it clear time and time again that they are 100% against the working class.
Single issue voters, identity politics, and they are fucking dummmmmb.
This. It just effing kills me.
But yes, so many republicans, would rather vote for God, Guns, and Freedumb while not carrying, knowing or understanding that every republican policy is aimed against themselves
Because they are fine with their lives being miserable as long as the lives of people that they hate are even worse.
Propoganda. Propoganda that is paid for by repub donors.
begs
raises
Both are correct. But the idiom "beg the question" is more correct here.
Begs the question isn’t an idiom, it’s a rhetorical device and it actually doesn’t apply here.
You made my morning. I’m dead on the hill of the proper use of ‘to beg the question.’
Unfortunately for me, our English language now accepts the improper way as proper.
I’ll go hang out with the Oxford comma nerds.
There are no good Republicans.
This guy is more of a useless fuckstick than a toothpick sized dildo
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Scott’s remark came in response to a question at a meet and greet in Fort Dodge: “Would you as president … insert yourself in the labor talks?” an Iowa voter asked.
Scott’s campaign declined to comment on why he referenced firing federal workers when asked how he would handle the current strike by the autoworkers.
“Part of the challenge that we have today with President Biden is — and I don’t mean this to be disingenuous, I mean this to be sincere — I’m not sure if the words are bought and paid for, but certainly he has been leased by the unions,” Scott said Monday.
While introducing his economic plan during a policy roundtable event in Duncan, South Carolina, last week, Scott criticized the union’s demands as they reached the end of their contract with the big automakers.
Ron DeSantis took a question on the UAW strike — but he opted against directly criticizing the union workers, instead saying he didn’t have enough information before turning his answer to Biden’s “push for electric vehicles,” which he said was “destructive of the automobile industry as a whole.”
Doug Burgum, meanwhile, called the UAW strike “a battle of the future of American transportation” but did not criticize the union workers.

What's he gonna do? Fire every auto worker and replace them with National Guardsmen?
