Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Now this is some leopards ate my face
I'm with you--folks already forget what he did with the rail workers?
Endorsing Trump would be ridiculous, but how about the unions endorse no one--can that be a thing?
You mean when he support the rail workers and fought congress undermining them? Why do leftist want to rewrite history to ensure people think it isn't a W for Biden and labor rights?
Any win by a liberal is a threat to the leftists, since their argument is based on the inability of liberals to govern
Yeah dude we get it, you hate liberals. Unfortunately you need them to get anything of material benefit done for working class people and minorities.
I was agreeing with you, I should have said "the perceived inability of liberals to govern"
Apologies, I missed the intention in my fervor lol
Youre the one rewriting history https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2022/12/02/biden-signs-bill-averting-rail-worker-strike-despite-lack-of-paid-sick-days.html
This comment is so disingenuous. Your link said guaranteed sick leave was the sticking point in December 2022:
But five months later, it was resolved:
https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/may/01/railroad-workers-union-win-sick-leave
Yea, five months after he very publicly shut down the strike, they quietly got a small part of what they were asking for. This isn't the w you think it is
Are you in a union? If not I'd understand why your upset. Anyone who is in one recognizes how good biden has been for labor in this country. Probably the best labor president since FDR even.
Source?
Then what is it? What happened? What are your sources? Substituting reality because you disagree with it will get you nowhere, champ.
Looks like a W to workers. Let's ask the rail workers who have increases of 24% how they like their new contract.
I assume this is the UAW leadership seeing that Biden would be better than trump, and so endorsing accordingly.
