No win for POTUS. If we strike he'll loose votes. 30 day "cooling off" actually means intense negotiations. After 30 days I can see him via POTUS order extending for another 30-45 to settle. You'd better believe his people have already called both sides with one message, SOLVE IT.
He stops the strike, he loses labor votes. He allows us to strike and he allows "rich" airline pilots to strike and hurt the economy. He doesn't want to make a decision. He want it settled.
