the teamsters, a union representing about 1.3 million workers in the united states and canada, has been committed to promoting the development of the transportation industry and improving working conditions for a century. but as the times change, their position has also begun to change, and they have decided not to support democratic or republican candidates. this is a huge change in the traditional political landscape.
the teamsters union is the only union among the top ten unions in the united states that does not support harris. this decision means that they will no longer be bound by the traditional political framework. they found in their internal polls that trump's support rate exceeded harris, which reflects the change in the working class's attitude towards politics and the changes of the times.
there are many reasons behind this decision, the most obvious of which is the increase in support for trump among members of the teamsters union, which is closely related to the surge in trump's support among truck drivers after harris became the democratic presidential candidate and biden withdrew.
however, the teamsters' decision not to support any candidate does not mean that they will completely abandon political participation. they will still work hard to protect the interests of workers and hope to promote social progress and economic development in various ways. their decision may also have an important impact on the future political landscape, especially when it comes to issues related to the transportation industry, labor conditions, and social welfare.
