Teamsters President Sean O’Brien on Monday blasted Vice President Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party, claiming that Harris as the party’s 2024 presidential nominee was rude to his team and arrogant about union support.

The union did not endorse a presidential candidate in this years presidential election, despite pressure from the Democratic Party, marking the first time it decided not to do so in 30 years. 

O’Brien, who spoke at the 2024 Republican National Convention in August, recounted moments when Harris and her party attempted to push his group to endorse her by telling one of his union representatives to “get on board,” and to do it soon.

“So I call up Marty Walsh, who was the secretary of Labor but he was pushing hard for us to make the endorsement. I’m like, ‘Let me ask you a question, Marty.’ Excuse my French. ‘Who does this f***ing lady think she is?'” O’Brien ranted to former Fox News host Tucker Carlson on his “The Tucker Carlson Show” podcast. “Like, if I want support from any organization I am not going to point my finger in someone’s face and say ‘you’d better get on board or else.’ But that’s the attitude of this whole party.”

O’Brien also claimed Harris told them that she would win “with you or without you,” which is when he knew she would lose the election. 

The union boss also said that President Joe Biden only answered five questions that Teamsters were concerned about, instead of the 16 questions they asked in a survey. He sent the same survey to President-elect Donald Trump and then-Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who answered all questions.
