A competent administration would have lobbied intensively behind the scenes to stop this in its tracks. The Taft Hartley Act should and could be invoked - but political considerations will prevent this from happening.

This hasn't happened before under Democrat and Republican administrations? Not sure why this is your response to what I said. Or do you just need to let off a little steam, because Biden is under your skin?

The strike is tied to the expiration date of the current labor contract - you know, like when the NFL players went on strike And no, I don't take you seriously enough to get under my skin.

Union members for Trump are voting against their own interests. Cognitive dissonance.
