    It seemed to me like he was thinking what an excellent opportunity to reach a new kind of audience to further the objectives of the teamsters.

    The attendees applauded a lot of statements, whether forced for pageantry or authentically, that is bound to get some gears turning.

    And those who didn’t applaud, well that’s a different useful signal.

    There’s really a lot of opportunity for workers advocate to get good messaging out to this crowd. I would also point out that his address was probably the most substantive one of the whole convention so far.

    The reality is Republicans will not disappear, they might even take majorities. Labor topics are super important to get out to them.

    I thought this whole play was really interesting.
