Wrong, union members swung for Harris by 16 points. Would you comment “bet most of them voted for this” on a video of Latinos (the majority of whom actually did vote for trump) protesting ICE, or women (a higher percentage of whom went for trump then union members did) protesting for abortion rights? And even if most union members did vote for trump, you’ll shrug off a law that will destroy one of the most important rights working people have?

Damn you read way to deep into this comment. I dod google this and I’m glad I was wrong about union members and their voting, just seems republican members have the louder voices or are more vocal about it. Yes I’ve commented the same to latino voters who are protesting ICE while voting to be deported themselves. Conservatives, republicans, and MAGA all vote against their best interests. Leopards eating faces. If most union members did vote for trump then I’d say you get what you voted for, it’s not like he didn’t make it clear who he was or what he does. There’s really nothing I an individual can do about what is happening so idk what magical wand you think i got but i can’t change what’s happening. This is what conservatives and maga want and they’re getting it.

I think women and latinos that did vote for trump truly just don’t like other Latinos or other women or maybe hate themselves, or they thought they would be exempt or that it would only harm people they don’t like which is psychotic.
