    If your union leaders haven’t figured out by now that Trump is bad for unions, then they are either idiots, or they are working for someone else (not YOU). Either way, you need new leadership.

      This isn’t a union leader problem. On the contrary, quite a few unions are close to 50% conservative voters. The leaders recognize this and are representing their membership by not endorsing either candidate. Not a good thing in my opinion but a fact right now. The trades are often filled with folks who don’t pay the most attention to politics even if it should matter to them. They hear tax cut and that motivates more than anything.
