‘Turn-up for the books’: Teamsters union declines to endorse either Harris or Trump

One of America’s largest labour unions the International Brotherhood of Teamsters has declined to endorse both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump ahead of the election in November.

It’s the first time since 1996 that the Teamsters Union has refused to issue a US presidential endorsement.

Sky News host Rita Panahi is joined by Sky News contributor Kosha Gada as to why the union made the decision not to endorse either candidate.

This can’t be good for Kamala. This is a big surprise?!?

[tailgunner]

The teanster President had a vote taken among it's members and 60% endorsed
supporting President Trump, where i come from that is a majority .

[jamestinning]

It's a shame that the things Koshsa and Rita "think" bear no resemblance to the Teamsters' actual statement they are trying to spin.🙄

Close to 60% are voting for Trmp, i bet its actually higher than that 🤔 🤣

[bubbak]

I'm a union member and I support President Trump...

[wilburgraham]

Its a known fact monitor that the CFMEU here are cosying up to the Greens, why the censorship?! 🤣

[JustYang]

[Richard-htec]

Don't let the media fool you trust me no way trump doesn't have major support Pennsylvania and South Carolina...I know for a fact

Please tell?

Long live Teamsters union empowered by semesters onion

[serviusm]

That is massive blow against Harris and shows how popular Trump is with the working class

[raulibarra]

I am very satisfied Teamster President didn’t endorse Harris. Rank and File is evenly split on candidates. From a retired Teamster 40 years of service

[bobbadham]

Ppl have felt too much sting from this admin n they all gravitating to to Trump for self preservation!!

[민순하]

솔직히 TRUMP 는 대단하고 훌륭합니다 경재 안보 평화 미국인의 경재을 위해 힘씁니다 존경 합니다TRUMP 👍❤❤❤❤❤

The unions could pick either party it wouldn’t make any difference !
It’s a dying organization in the auto industry here in the US in a global economy !
Automation and cheap labor has made it so !

*** An endorsement by omission works, too! MIchigan MAGA, FOREVER! ***

In recent weeks Polls found Teamsters again backing Trump by a lopsided margin - 58% to 31%.🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂😜

The American people should decline both of these corporate captured fixed candidates. They offer nothing for the working class.

Biden is still on the ticket and can come out of the basement and run in the last min
