Sounds like it’s time for the Teamsters to get a new president.

Yeah, who would want a president that doesn't live in reality and ignores two thirds of the people he's supposed to represent?

The poll that was released showed that the majority of the teamsters were pro dumpy. The messaging on the press release was that neither side gave any promises to the teamsters.
