Where do the Teamsters stand?

As I was backing out of a pet food store parking stall today, I was pleased to see a bumper sticker that read, "Teamsters for Bernie Sanders". I hadn't heard where the national party landed, endorsement-wise. But at least some local union members are Feelin' the Bern.

2. Once upon a time the Teamsters endorsed Ronald Wilson Reagan, but I still walked the picket

3. I expect the union leadership will

tie their wagon to Hill and hope to reap some personal advantage. But the membership will do as they please.
