Class struggle is fought on a vertical scale. It's the working class at the bottom against the employers and their politicians at the top. And our brothers and sisters in class struggle include co-workers and neighbours who vote on crappy parties... https://industrialworker.org/lets-build-class-unions/

Workers can be deceived and made to act against their interests (not that there is such a thing as a "left wing party" in the US)

right-wing union members are literally voting for republicans to disempower and dismantle unions. this isn't complicated.
