Recall, the Teamsters President Sean O’Brien spoke at the Republican National Convention (RNC) in 2024.
That was a big deal given the history of the Teamsters’ support for what once was the political party from the Left.

But it is not surprising, given how the party of the Left had been treating the Teamsters. Noteworthy, above is how O’Brien described the Teamsters’ dealings with What’s-Her-Name in an interview following the November 2024 presidential election.
The Teamsters going to the RNC was not a one-off—it was a sign of how much trouble the communists/globalists are in with union workers. The Teamsters’ polling in 2024 showed they preferred Trump, for example.
According to Politico:
[They are] signaling a more permanent realignment by donating to battleground Republicans in the upcoming midterms.
Their political action committee just donated $5,000 to the National Republican Congressional Committee for the second year. Then, they donated to these battleground Republicans:
- Rob Bresnahan, Mike Kelly and Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania
- Pete Stauber and Tom Emmer of Minnesota
- Nicole Malliotakis, Andrew Garbarino, Nick LaLota and Mike Lawler of New York
- Jefferson Shreve of Indiana
- Dave Taylor, Bob Latta, Michael Rulli and Dave Joyce of Ohio
- Jeff Van Drew and Chris Smith of New Jersey
- David Rouzer of North Carolina
- Tom Barrett of Michigan
- Blake Moore of Utah
- Darin LaHood and Mike Bost of Illinois
- Troy Nehls of Texas
- Vern Buchanan of Florida
They even donated to Republican senators, including Jon Husted (OH) and David McCormick (PA).
In battles that might be tight, where any little bit helps, that could make the difference, not to mention it is an indication of where the Teamsters’ heads are. That is an enormous sea-change.
Beyond members of Congress, the Teamsters even donated $50,000 to the Republican Attorneys General Association. It looks like they understand there is an issue with how some of the Leftist Attorneys General deal with crime.
These actions by the Teamsters should be a big, flashing sign to the communists/globalists that they are losing union workers. While the union is still donating to the Left, they have increased their donations to Republicans, which shows the increase in the number of their members who have grown disillusioned with what once was the favored political party of the Left and/or prefer the right.
What has been the Left’s response? What have they been doing over the past six months since President Trump came to power? Defending illegal aliens and claiming crime is not that bad—not doing anything that would appeal to the American worker. So, they should not be surprised if the workers are abandoning them for Trump and the Republicans, who are speaking to the issues they care about. Trump is encouraging business investment and jobs to come back to the U.S.
Expect this movement to escalate even further, because, no doubt, the unyielding communists/globalists will continue down this same path undeterred—damn the constituents, full speed ahead over the cliff.
