Sick days were just one demand of many the unions wanted, and even then it fell short of what they had demanded. “We got them their demands later” is basically propaganda at this point.
They also got them a historic pay raise and other concessions. When the union that the president prevented from striking praises the president, it’s not propaganda. This isn’t some WH press release.

One union did that. Many others didn’t.
Did he abolish the system that made accidents more likely and was the reason they striked in the first place?
Does the president have unilateral authority to make laws? How do you expect him to abolish that system without Congressional action?
