    Well yeah that’s where the bar is - traditionally the difference between the parties has been that Republicans wanted unions to die in a fire, while Dems saw themselves as neutral mediators between unions and employers. Now Dems are moving a little bit towards actively favoring unions, widening the gap further. Still can’t exactly trust the Dems as solid labor allies, but if you care about labor issues there’s rarely been a time when difference between the parties has been wider.
