Teamsters are officially endorsing NO ONE this election cycle which means they just basically endorsed Donald Trump for president. Oh, we know, there will be plenty of desperate Democrats trying to explain WHY this isn't absolutely catastrophic for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz but we all know the truth.
And it ain't good.
For Kam-Kam.
Sean Davis really summed up well (and painfully):
Understand what’s happening with the Teamsters: the members all want Donald Trump, but the leadership knows it can’t officially endorse Trump without putting the entire organization at risk due to the bloodlust of the Democrat party at every level in blue states where the…
