I am unsure when or how a connection between the two formed but both anti-labor conservatives and tankies claim that unions are a stepping stone to communism. I don't believe that unionization and communism are mutually inclusive.

You can indeed be pro-union and anti-comunist. As a matter of fact all the EU countries have strong pro-union laws and are not communist countries nor they want to be.

As an example, in Spain (where I'm at) if a company has more than 80 employees they MUST have a union. If they don't, the company will get a fine.

    The americans way of looking at these things is so tiring. Every european reads ops question and shakes his head propably. There has to be a lot more that's going wrong than "just" Fox News and Trump.
