Hey, UAW! Did Biden at least send you...

...enough of this↓?

Breitbart: Trump Defends Auto Workers Against Biden’s Green Agenda: You’re ‘Being Sold Down the River’ to China.

[...] nearly 13,000 UAW members have started striking against three automakers as contract negotiations have yet to deliver assurances that Biden’s rapid push for Electric Vehicles (EVs) will not jeopardize their wages and jobs.

Who did the UAW support in 2016 and 2020? In 2016 it was Cankles and in 2020 it was Biden.

al-Reuters (April 2020): United Auto Workers union endorses Biden for president.

The 400,000-member United Auto Workers union endorsed Joe Biden’s U.S. presidential bid on Tuesday[.]

The UAW endorsed Clinton in 2016 but has said it believes a higher-than-normal 32% of members voted for the Republican candidate.

 "it believes a higher-than-normal 32% of members voted for the Republican candidate." 🤣 32%? Oh no! How dare they! The beatings will continue until morale improves and until the union votes 110% democrat!

Adding to the irony is that in 2016, the UAW favored Bernie Sanders for president until the DNC pulled the rug out from under him and coronated Cankles. The UAW had no choice, then, in supporting her.
 

 
...Ford announced it told 600 workers who assemble cars at a plant in Michigan not to report to work that day, citing the "knock-on effects" of the strike. Workers in the paint department at a nearby plant are out on strike, leaving the assembly workers without adequate parts, since the parts require paint before they can be put together into cars, the company said in a statement to ABC News.

GM also said on Friday it plans to idle 2,000 workers at its Fairfax assembly plant in Kansas as soon as early next week due to a "ripple effect" of the strike at its Wentzville assembly plant in Missouri.

President Joe Biden said Friday he is deploying acting Labor Secretary Julie Su and White House senior adviser Gene Sperling to Detroit to offer their support for the parties in reaching an agreement.

Oh well, Su and Sperling on the job? Consider it another Biden Administration success.

I haven't been following this strike that closely and don't like for anyone to be out of work. But - "you get who you support and vote for," comes to mind.
