Seeing a lot of discourse around whether or not, as leftists, you should kick a Trump supporter out of your union, so I guess I'll give my take.

I don't think it's practical to auto-yeet every worker who's ever had a right-of-center opinion from your union (we all had to come from somewhere), but I don't think anyone is seriously advocating for that.

The fact of the matter is, Trump supporters/fascists make it harder to organize. They make work places unsafe, they turn other people away from the union, and they make union consensus harder to achieve. The more fascists you have in your union, the shittier it will be.

Unions should build solidarity, inclusivity, and anti-fascism into their codes of conduct. If this hypothetical Trump supporter were to break this code of conduct they would be removed on those grounds, like anyone else. A strange hypothetical anyway - most unions endorse Dems
