    I literally gave you examples of how a President could be more Pro-Union: by presenting and helping pass actual Pro-Union legislation that protects worker’s rights to strike and form unions. Another good one would be mandating that all companies be unionized, or companies of a certain size must have union representatives participate in Board meetings.

    Virtue signaling does nothing materially, it’s an optics thing.

    He isn’t doing what he can do, lmao.

    I am not ignorant of the structure of the US government just because you believe the job of the US president is to shout slogans and steer the country off vibes, lmao

      Which legislation that republicans have allowed to hit floor should biden support?

      Its also certifiably nuts you think a president should unilaterally demand all companies be unionized - like the king you would have him be. The destruction that would be wrought is unimaginable.

      You just dont understand how us politics work.

        Biden can do more than sit and wait until legislature passes up to him.

        Secondly, it is absolutely not “certifiably nuts” to suggest that all companies be unionized - rather, it’s an extremely sensible thing to do for worker protections.

        You just don’t understand how any politics work.

            No, I want the will of the people to be represented, not the will of the ultra-wealthy that both major parties ultimately cater to over the people.

                Probably Biden, I have said that numerous times. This isn’t a gotcha! moment, my point is that voting will not move America leftward unless the parties are under serious strain and stand to fall out of power entirely.
