Who's on the side of workers? It's not Trump and the Republicans, and real American workers know that.

Sen. JD Vance, the Republican vice presidential nominee, was booed by a firefighters union audience before his speech at their conference on Thursday.

Why it matters: Vance's speech in Boston was a day after Democratic VP nominee Gov. Tim Walz appealed to the same crowd as both tickets vie for the holdout labor union's endorsement.

>"Semper fi, guys. Sounds like we've got some fans and some haters," Vance said after he was greeted by a mix of boos and cheers while approaching the podium at the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) conference.
>"That's OK, listen to what I have to say here and I'll make my pitch."

Catch up quick: In his Wednesday speech, Walz highlighted the Democratic ticket's record on labor rights.

>Vice President Kamala Harris and Walz have been endorsed by the United Auto Workers, United Steelworkers, the Service Employees International Union and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees.
>The IAFF has yet to endorse either candidate, and it's unclear when — or if — they will do so.
>Vance was booed again, though, when he said that he and Trump are "proud to be the most pro-worker Republican ticket in history."

Zoom out: Vance and Walz's speeches at the same conference is just the latest example of the two presidential campaigns playing tag in their campaign appearances.

>Earlier this month, Harris held a rally inside Milwaukee's Fiserv Forum where Trump accepted the Republican presidential nomination weeks before.
>Vance, Harris and Walz were all briefly on the same Wisconsin airport tarmac while all three were traveling to campaign events.

The media immediately covered this up.
Imagine if Walz got booed, it would be the front page of every website.

Why do shills hate unions so much?

Because Republican politicians get paid by corporate lobbyists to convince their knuckle dragging followers that unions are evil and they should instead put their faith in the benevolence of multi-billion dollar "job creators". Trickle down and all that.
