At the White House, Biden reminded Fain of his labor-friendly achievements to date and suggested he was doing his part to support autoworkers, according to people familiar with the meeting who spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to discuss it. They say that Fain told Biden, “We don’t agree,” and rattled off a series of issues where he said the president should do more. Biden would have to help, Fain told him, to make sure the next generation of auto jobs would be worth workers’ time. This isn’t how US labor leaders tend to behave. For a generation, they’ve mostly lined up behind Democratic nominees and taken what they could get. While both parties declined to recount the conversation in detail, the people familiar with the meeting say Biden, who frequently describes himself as America’s most pro-union commander in chief, seemed taken aback.
Tweet checks out. It took Shawn Fain being real with Biden for Biden to finally get a fucking reality check that he’s fucking half-assing it. “Taken aback” in other words literally shocked because he’s a fucking out of touch geezer. This is the same guy who made Student Loans not dis-chargeable in bankruptcy but wants us to pat him on the back for trying to dump some of that student debt instead of undoing what he did to begin with and making it so students can declare bankruptcy over student loans. Nah, he has to fucking half-ass it and is surprised when people tell him to his face it isn’t enough.
Still gonna vote for his ancient ass though because Trump is even crazier, and is a full-throated authoritarian fascist compared to Biden’s “I shake hands and make deals with fascists.” Apparently I have to make this point in every comment where I have the audacity to critique the Democrats, and even then, I’ll still be told I shouldn’t be critiquing them and am probably a Russian plant. Sure, Jan.
