    I don't know if it's going to work because the political headwinds are so strong against the Democrats, but Bernie's strategy of open support for labor organizing is a better path forward than anything else on offer.https://twitter.com/nycsouthpaw/status/1519719097436622849 …

        Would love to see what he's actually accomplished compared to Bidens cabinet and labor board. As always, reporters get snookered because they don't walk around outside.

        There's a lot of campaign contributions urging them to not do that. Manchin is only their loudest convert.

        It’s absolutely good politics, which is why it’s important to not shoot yourself in the foot and give quotes implying Dems have “turned their backs on organized labor”. Push for more, but also sell your achievements to date! Biden has been aggressively pro union!

        polling, history, and recent redistricting outcomes all indicate that this is going to be a very difficult midterm for the democrats coming up with reasons why you think that shouldn't be true won't change those facts

        His support consists of a slew of tweets and emails. Then when a group votes for a union he parachutes in and congratulates them. Rarely if ever visits beforehand (maybe their decision since he's the kiss of death) The man is 80 years old, anyone hear of him before 5-6 yrs ago?
