A very short tweet thread by one of the reporters...
Scoop: Joe Biden to join UAW workers in Michigan on Tuesday, in likely one of the most significant pro-union displays ever by a sitting US president amid a contract dispute, sources say
[...]
The fact that Biden is going out to Michigan to support UAW workers is significant. But we don't know exactly where yet he'll be
Odd to me why he was vaguely supportive in his first speech regarding the UAW strikes when he crushed the rail workers without so much as the barest amount of hand wringing.
The rail workers could have stopped the flow of people and capital across the country. UAW can only hamper car production. The former is a larger threat, so with UAW he can win some political points without pissing off all the donors
hand wringing
He didn't wring his hands. He asked Congress to crush it.
