Donald Trump speaks out on union's refusal to endorse a candidate
The battle for the endorsement of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters shows just how important union support is during a US election and how much Donald Trump is changing the Republican Party.
On Wednesday the union’s president, Sean O’Brien, announced that his organisation was sitting out the election for the first time since 1996. “Unfortunately, neither major candidate was able to make serious commitments to our union to ensure the interests of working people are always put before big business,” he said.
But by choosing to withhold support from either candidate, the 1.3 million-member union dealt a blow to Kamala Harris, who had lobbied O’Brien earlier this week and becomes the first Democratic nominee to miss out on its backing since Bill Clinton.
