    If you want to protest, you protest AFTER you get sympathetic ears into office,

    This is exactly why the railroad strike failed lmao.

    Even UAW’s future strike plan is May 1, 2028, which is strategically a presidential election year, 5 months before the election.

      The UAW struck after the railroad strike. And got Biden to personally come down to ask the what he could do to secure their vote. Both happened while Biden was in office. What are you even saying about why the railroad strike failed?

      If you’re that dialed in to the railroad strike this long after the fact, you are absolutely aware that Biden helped get the unions their biggest demands shortly after ending the strike.

      Get your bad faith soundbite bullshit out of here.
