    Im not sure it’s possible to be more pro-union than being literally the only president in united states history to ever step foot onto a picket line and protest.

    He is doing what he is legally able to do for abortions and unions. The president is not a lawmaker, nor a king like you would seem to have him be.

    Again, its not his fault you seem to be ignorant of the structure of the US government.

      I literally gave you examples of how a President could be more Pro-Union: by presenting and helping pass actual Pro-Union legislation that protects worker’s rights to strike and form unions. Another good one would be mandating that all companies be unionized, or companies of a certain size must have union representatives participate in Board meetings.

      Virtue signaling does nothing materially, it’s an optics thing.

      He isn’t doing what he can do, lmao.

      I am not ignorant of the structure of the US government just because you believe the job of the US president is to shout slogans and steer the country off vibes, lmao

        Which legislation that republicans have allowed to hit floor should biden support?

        Its also certifiably nuts you think a president should unilaterally demand all companies be unionized - like the king you would have him be. The destruction that would be wrought is unimaginable.

        You just dont understand how us politics work.

          Biden can do more than sit and wait until legislature passes up to him.

          Secondly, it is absolutely not “certifiably nuts” to suggest that all companies be unionized - rather, it’s an extremely sensible thing to do for worker protections.

          You just don’t understand how any politics work.
