The rail union contract expires at the end of this year meaning the rail union workers can strike again sometime in 2025. Whoever wins the 2024 general election and becomes president will immediately have to deal with that possibility. If Biden is serious about how Trump is the biggest threat we face then promising to veto any attempts to force another contract onto the rail unions is a bargain.

Your move Joe. Are you willing to compromise with leftists or do you want to go down in history as the second establishment Democrat who lost to Donald Trump?

      I really don’t see why this is your line in the sand.

      You don’t need to understand it. You just need to believe me that I’m serious. And then you need to decide if you think Joe Biden needs my vote to win the 2024 general election. If he doesn’t, congratulations, you can ignore me and get on with your day. If he does you should probably try to get him to take this seriously.

          Telling people they’re not entitled to my vote and that I don’t have to explain it to them isn’t sanctimonious. It’s how democracy is sold to each and every one of us. If you find yourself trying to insist that someone vote against their own interests and understandings then you need examine whether or not you really believe in democracy.
