Harris has said some ridiculous things over the years. But this may take the cake.
And Kamala Harris was finally exposed for making this shocking statement right before the election.
In a dramatic episode recounted by Teamsters President Sean O’Brien on The Tucker Carlson Show Monday, Vice President Kamala Harris reportedly stormed out of a meeting with the influential labor leader during her presidential campaign.
Her parting words, according to O’Brien, were as defiant as they were dismissive: she told him she’d “win with you or without you.”
O’Brien shared the encounter while discussing his union’s unprecedented decision not to endorse a presidential candidate for the first time in nearly three decades.
The meeting, which took place after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race, had been arranged to address the concerns of the powerful 1.3-million-member Teamsters union. O’Brien noted that Harris agreed to a roundtable discussion but only addressed four out of the sixteen questions posed by the union.
“On the fourth question, one of her operatives or one of her staff slips a note in front of me — ‘This will be the last question,’” O’Brien said. “And it was 20 minutes earlier than the time it was supposed to end.”
As she left, Harris delivered the striking declaration that left an impression on O’Brien: “I’m going to win with you or without you.”
The comment raised eyebrows during O’Brien’s interview with Tucker Carlson, who reacted with characteristic candor: “D*mn. I thought I was arrogant. That’s really arrogant.”
O’Brien, still unsettled by the interaction, sought out Marty Walsh, the former Secretary of Labor under Biden and now the head of the NHL Players’ Association, to discuss the vice president’s conduct.
“Let me ask you a question, Marty. Excuse my French. Who does this f–king lady think she is?” O’Brien recounted asking Walsh.
The union leader didn’t hold back on his concerns about the Democratic ticket’s trajectory. Reflecting on Biden’s condition during his reelection bid, O’Brien said it was evident the president was no longer the man he used to be.
He remarked that it “kinda looked like elderly abuse,” calling it “sad” to witness Biden’s decline despite praising him as a strong advocate for workers during his presidency.
Weeks before the election, the Teamsters shocked political observers by announcing they would not endorse any candidate — a historic break from their longstanding loyalty to Democratic contenders.
The decision came after an internal survey revealed that a majority of Teamsters members supported Donald Trump over Kamala Harris by a significant margin: 59.6% to 34%.
Before Biden’s withdrawal, he had maintained a lead in union member support, polling at 44.3% to Trump’s 36.3%.
The shift in sentiment among members highlighted the challenges Democrats faced with labor groups traditionally considered part of their base.
The Teamsters had previously backed the Biden-Harris ticket in 2020 and endorsed Hillary Clinton in 2016.
However, the lack of support for Harris in 2024 marks a stark departure from the union’s recent history and signals a growing divide between the Democratic Party and its once-reliable labor allies.
