    That is hard to say because I do believe at least some of the suits had merit - but at this point I think it serves no point. People already know Trump is sketchy and have already decided if they will vote for him or not.

    I don’t think it politically helps the Democrats either.

    Yeah - that’s an insincere tweet but it shows how dug in the genders are right now.

    I don’t see it changing in our lifetime either.

    It's not surprising unions across the country are endorsing Harris over Trump. That will amount to millions of votes. The West Coast Teamsters, which includes California, Nevada, Hawaii and Guam have also endorsed Harris. The union's Black caucus have endorsed Harris as well.

    There are so many including The International Association of Machines and Aerospace Workers (600,000 members), the United Auto Union which has more than 391,000 active members and more than 580,000 retired members, the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) which has about 2 million members in healthcare, the public sector and property services, the United Food & Commercial Workers International Union (UFCW), the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) in addition to the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and the United Steelworkers (USW).

    That covers so many industries and occupations across this country, and those millions of votes, along with the majority of women voters will make a huge impact at the polls.

    The Teamsters are looking more like an outlier among labor support for Democrats. Given how many of their subchapters are breaking and supporting Harris I’m starting to question their own internal polling claiming that there rank and file was supporting Trump heavily.

    Perhaps an outlier endorsement wise, yeah. Still significant and there are definitely more Trump supporters among the unions that did endorse Harris. Everyone has been affected by the same things.

    Not all Unions are the same. They represent different groups or workers and different demographics of workers.

    The AFL-CIO for example is larger than the Teamsters, and they stated that they are supporting Harris based on their internal polling showing members strongly supporting Harris.

    The Teamsters are largely middle-aged white men that are drivers - a specific demographic. They also have largely der-centralized power with the local chapters having most of the power.

    I don't know - Trump could end up with over 300 EC votes - but you are really overplaying the significance of the Teamsters.

    What percentage of Americans would have to pay *ANYTHING* to these taxes?

    You cannot tell me to not be concerned about Trans Rights because it affects less than 1% of Americans
    The turn around and telll me to be concerned about the tax payments that affect less than 1% of Americans

    Not that many Americans have unrealized gains of over $100M (Harris proposes a 25% tax on unrealized capital gains worth over $100M), nor do they earn $1M+ a year (Harris proposes increasing the long-term capital gains tax from 23.6% to 28%, not 44.6%, for those earning $1M+).

    Zerohedge is likely a Russian mouthpiece.
