Actually, if you look at the union vote it’s shifted to the Republicans over the last 20 years. Union leadership remains solidly behind the Democrats. However the rank and file have shifted sharply the other direction. In any event, unions don’t matter like they used to. Less than 10% of the private sector workforce is in a union and overall the percentage of people in a union is only 17-18%.

“...percentage of people in a union is only 17-18%.”

That may be true, but there are many not in a umion who get personal satisfaction from considering themselves part of the “brilliant, enlightened, intellectuals” of “society” who are elite and far above any of those “flyover morons”.

They’re lurking and will be ready to turn the moment the Democrat leadership comes up with a tried and tested premise that has legs.

IMHO
