Pilots are only a small part of the labor picture. Boeing unions have a very different outlook on ME3 carriers who buy lots of planes. The UAE is also an enormous ally of the US in the Middle East. You should see some of our air bases there. Things are not as simple as we pilots sometimes like to imagine.
What is pretty simple is that one party hates unions.
