(TheLastPatriotNews.com) – In a staggering disclosure that is unsettling the leftist propaganda machines that are the mainstream media, anti-Trump pollster Frank Luntz has revealed that the GOP presidential nominee is enjoying unprecedented support among union workers, a demographic that Republicans have not successfully courted in many years.

This insight surfaced following actions by the United Auto Workers (UAW) union, which has brought federal labor charges against Trump and tech magnate Elon Musk, claiming they made illegal threats against workers participating in strikes.
The UAW has formally charged Trump and Musk with trying to coerce workers involved in lawful strikes, WND reports.
The union’s statement strongly criticized Trump, branding him as detrimental to the labor movement.
“When we say Donald Trump is a scab, this is what we mean,” stated UAW President Shawn Fain.
“Donald Trump will always side against workers standing up for themselves, and he will always side with billionaires like Elon Musk,” he added.
Trump’s remarks were in response to Musk’s takeover of Twitter/X, where nearly 80% of the workforce was terminated.
Trump inaccurately described these employees as strikers, although Musk had planned these layoffs prior to his acquisition.
Some employees did protest Musk’s takeover, but their grievances were not about working conditions; they were primarily opposed to Musk’s ideology, particularly his stance on free speech.
However, Frank Luntz presents a contrasting view. On CNN, he pointed out that despite strong criticism from union leaders, Trump’s popularity with the general union membership is at an all-time high.
“Donald Trump is doing better among the average union member, not teachers’ unions and not the unions for government, but everybody else, the trades, people work with their hands. He’s doing better among them than any Republican has done in decades,” Luntz asserted, silencing the typically critical panel.
Luntz also emphasized the widening gap between union leadership and their members, suggesting that the more vocal the leaders are in their denunciation of Trump, the more they risk alienating their constituents.
In his research, Luntz noted a significant level of dissatisfaction among union members towards their leaders, whom they perceive as disconnected from the members’ actual needs.
“In my focus groups, and this is remarkable to me, for me. I’ve been doing this now since, I hate to say this, ‘1989, 1990. I’ve never had Union people publicly say, ‘They don’t speak for us,’” Luntz remarked.
