It doesn't have to do with age or even brainwashing, it has to do with the fact that the unions manipulate the truth and make these guys think that they owe their success to the union and that anyone not in the Democratic Party is out to bust the unions up.
Look see, THAT mill owned by your same company doesn't have a union and they get paid less and have to work swing shifts on the weekends. Because of us here at the United Steel Workers you get great pay and a consistent schedule
Look Trump had a dispute with the Culinary Workers Union in Vegas. If it wasnt for our guys in Congress keeping him in check he would've came after us. We've gotta make sure he gets out of office or he'll kill all the unions starting with us.
They pump guys full of this shit all the time. Then after 20+ years of hearing this they start to feel like they owe the union something. My old man and all of his buddies are as stereotypical conservative as can can be. Own guns, go to church every Sunday, think blm is bullshit, calls communism evil... But at the end of the day they vote blue because the union.
But they didn’t vote for Joe. The actual union members voted for Trump. The machines voted for Joe.
But they did.
My dad and almost every one of his coworkers in the USW voted for Biden because...the USW wanted them to.
Unions have long outlived their purpose
Huh, same here with my dad. I'm gonna chalk it up to the vast majority of tradesman and union guys being older, and more exposed to brainwashing
