Boeing now has the upper hand in that they seem to be systematically relocating.

Other states and areas are also offering relocation incentives. If Boeing relocates completely, the people of WA state will have no one to thank but the union. It looks to me like the IAM want to emulate their brethren in the bakers union that shut down Hostess. Once Boeing shuts down operations in the northwest, the union will declare a "Victory for the working man" as their members begin lining up for unemployment.
