Truckers will boycott New York City in protest to the miscarriage of justice perpetuated on President Trump. Is this the beginning? ?

[exitseven]

How long will it take before New York runs out of food? Once they do what will happen?

TRUMP 2024

[WhiteSteve]

I don’t know, man, not really looking for a brawl with you here, but I just don’t understand why people are so convinced that Trump hasn’t likely broken a bunch of laws. Might as well just go Lord Of The Flies if we’re going to say our official institutions can’t be trusted. With all due respect for what they do, I think it’s safe to say the majority of truckers aren’t exactly brainiacs, certainly not in my professional experience. I don’t expect these people to not have the simpleton’s logic that the strength of the economy is only measured in gas prices and the cost of goods and services. It’s uninformed and shortsighted to believe that.

I don’t know, getting deeper than I’m really up for tonight, lmfao, but while I believe not many people will be looking to do Trump any favors, I find it hard to believe that he could just get railroaded in broad daylight, in front of everyone. The only people who believe that are the ones who believe whatever Trump says to be true, which is maybe the biggest fatal flaw. HE says getting jobbed, sure. Prisons are full of “innocent” men, though, right?

Like of all the things I would find objectively questionable about Trump is that he’s, at least to me, very obviously dishonest. Like not a little bit, like “roll my eyes at almost every word he says”-level of dishonesty. I don’t understand how YOU GUYS haven’t figured it out yet, that’s what really blows me away. “Drain the swamp”, FINE, I actually agree with that, DC is a mess on both sides of the aisle…. but to believe Trump is the guy who’s going to be unwaveringly honest and clean things up, I will just never in my life understand what you guys are seeing there to make you believe that. Just the most obvious conman I’ve ever seen. And it’s worse this time because he’s not running for us, he’s running to save himself because it’s his only way out. Are there really no other conservative politicians you could get behind? Like we aren’t going to agree on the direction the country should be going in, probably, but Trump is just a mind-boggling choice for a candidate, unless you take him at face value, which I would urge anyone NOT TO.

[Avicenna]

To naively trust "official institutions" just because of what they are instead of looking at what they're doing, the theory of their cases, and who's running them is a bad idea.

[Avicenna]

In other words, don't take what they claim at face value.

[FunkyMonkee]

Very simple! There's NO EVIDENCE!!

[WhiteSteve]

@Avicenna I understand that to a degree, but I can’t possibly stress hard enough to people that 1984 was a work of FICTION, lmao. We might have to have kids stop reading that one if this is the response, holy smokes, lmfao. No one is out to get you, they probably don’t even know you exist. You aren’t Winston, and there’s no O’Brien or Big Brother. You don’t get to smash Julia, either, sorry to say😝 Don’t let your imagination run away with itself.

I feel like we’ve totally lost sight of the Occam’s Razor principle, and instead we believe that, instead reality that our “lying eyes” are apparently viewing, is really just a series of hundreds of nefarious interconnected conspiracies behind the scenes, perpetrated by only ONE of the two parties, and despite a roughly 50/50-ish split in government, the poor Republicans JUST can’t seem to stop them. I just don’t know why one would believe the latter to be the truth unless it assuaged their psyche in some way and the lie was more comforting than reality.

[WhiteSteve]

@FunkyMonkee So you’re telling me that —PROFESSIONAL PROSECUTORS— are going to show up to court, the judge is going to say “Alright Ms. James/Mr. Harris/Ms. Willis/Mr. Smith…. we’re ready to get started with your opening arguments.” And all of them will just say “Uhhhh…yeah…so…. we didn’t really bring any evidence…. but that orange guy over there is REALLY not very nice, and we’d like to see him convicted, please and thank you.”?

[FunkyMonkee]

Then, why are the lefties treating it like it's an instruction manual?
Smash? I saw the movie and I don't recall her getting smashed. Why would anyone want to smash her? What'd she do to deserve getting smashed?
It's OBVI9USLY the lefties that are all in for the lies!! They believe ANY bullshit they're fed!! If CNN told them the moon was purple with orange and green spots, they'd believe it and glue their heads to the road until the rest of us believed their bullshit!!

[FunkyMonkee]

Absoolutely!! That's what's been going on since 2015!! You're finally catching on!

[WhiteSteve]

@FunkyMonkee “Smash = sex” to younger generations. Winston “smashed” Julia, at least in the book, I didn’t catch the film adaptation.

I don’t see anything at all that’s remotely Orwellian going on, that’s very dramatic😂

One media outlet got sued to the bejeezus because of outright lying to their viewers and defaming companies and people in the process…and it wasn’t a left wing channel, just sayin’. Corporate media is garbage, but let me know when CNN and MSNBC are sued for almost a billion. You can’t just claim every single court case is fixed against the right wing, that’s preposterous, like I straight up do not believe that. An extraordinary claim like that requires extraordinary evidence, and the right wing is failing to produce it for pretty much every claim they’ve made. PROVE IT IN A COURT OF LAW OR THE CLAIM ISN’T VALID, full stop.

[WhiteSteve]

@FunkyMonkee I’m tired of allegations. Prove something, even ONCE, in courts of LAW. Court of public opinion doesn’t matter a lick.

[FunkyMonkee]

Why? What does smashing something have to do with fucking?
You don't? We're no longer allowed to use certain words or phrases. We're supposed to believe EVERYTHING big brother (CNN) tells us; we're not supposed to question authority, people get arrested for just existing, t. v. and movies are CONSTANTLY programming you with corporate bullshit!!
OF COURSE it wouldn't be a left wing channel!! Why would the PTB want to sue their own kind that they've bought & paid for to program the masses?
As long as the lefties are in charge, CNN and the like will NEVER be sued! I just said that a moment ago!
Sure I can! Because IT'S HAPPENING!!
If the so-called, "court of law" is bipartisaned against you, OF COURSE they're NOT gonna see, hear or believe ANYTHING you have to say or show them!! How can ANYBODY win against a stacked deck of cards? And THAT'S what we're up against!!

[FunkyMonkee]

It's been in the public eye for YEARS!! If you can't see it by know, it's because you CHOOSE NOT to see any of it so, there's no point in me or anyone else trying to show you! There are none so blind as those who WILL NOT see!!

[WhiteSteve]

@FunkyMonkee still waiting on Hunter’s laptop lmfao.

I don’t know, man, you sound kind of untethered to reality in this area. Tough to argue about things when they’re never proven. You act like only left wingers work in the legal system, lmfao. Very untrue.

[FunkyMonkee]

You haven't seen that, yet?
You sound like you're at least 2 years behind everybody else.
Where Trump is involved, it's ALWAYS gonna be lefties tying to fuck him over!!

[Sharkstealth]

I think the dumb truck drivers are saying along with most people in my day to day life in all professions is that under Trump things went well and under Biden the whole country went to shit. I dont think it takes much of a brain to see that.

[QuietRunner]

@WhiteSteve the logic of the crime doesn't make sense. Using this logic, my local Toyota Used car dealer committed fraud by not charging the correct Kelly Blue Book value for my car purchase. They charged more for the car, added a surcharge, and it was $10,000 published third party evaluated value.
However, I was okay paying that much like the banks were okay loaning that much money to President Trump. He payed it back and that banks were didn't complain.

If he overvalued his property for loans, what's the property tax value the city and state of New York collected on?

[WhiteSteve]

@QuietRunner well, I mean…. it’s illegal to overvalue your properties to obtain loans, and it’s further illegal to undervalue those same properties at tax time. This country should really shift focus from prosecuting street crime to prosecuting a lot more business crime, because the latter fucks our society more than the former does, sneakily so.

Whether the banks are on board with his behavior is irrelevant, all of these people answer to the government and the law. And if the bank isn’t mad, fine, but in this country we pay taxes to support our society, and I can’t urge people strongly enough to just STFU and pay what the IRS man tells you to. Otherwise I don’t want to hear a peep about what we DON’T have coming back to us through the government. Potholes, poor school systems, etc, etc. You simply are not allowed as a business to do what the Trump Org. did. Period, end of story. Any objections are noise for the sake of noise. Trump supporters just simply don’t want the law to apply to him because he’s their cult leader. It’s not based in any fact. There’s a whole cottage industry that’s developed to just spin stories to make it look like he’s being railroaded.

[WhiteSteve]

@QuietRunner Would others have been gone after? I don’t know…. but it doesn’t make it right to let Trump slide on it. If you have stuff on Biden, I’m not married to him, bring it forward, but so far I’ve seen nothing convincing. There’s a big show, they announce investigations and such loudly, they get their five minutes of face time on Fox News, but they never end in “GOT HIM!” Hunter Biden isn’t even in politics and they’re going after him like crazy, to no avail, so far, and whistleblowers are being found to have lied. Nobody on the right thinks THAT’S crooked? Lock Hunter up all you want if he did anything wrong, but he’s not even a politician. They’re using him as a proxy to go after his father, none of them truly give a shit about Hunter. Come at me with something hard, not allegations about “the big guy”, lmfao. Like even if there WAS some corruption and Joe got some money, how am I worse off for it? And the biggest thing is that, unlike Trump’s actual legal cases, where scheduling is in a court’s hands, not the plaintiffs or defendants, the Republicans could’ve expedited the whole thing, but they don’t want it to resolve in a month or two, they need to stretch it for all four years. They have no goal of resolution, this is done for the media circus and to attempt to sully the name of Biden and Democrats, broadly. That seems blatantly obvious.

Bottom line: the government, like them or not, is doing big-brain shit that Average Joe and Jane simply don’t have the intelligence or the ability to think of people other than themselves and their own personal prosperity to comprehend most of what’s going on. Most folks will resort to small-brain analysis like how much gas and groceries cost them, and we’re fucked if that’s the lens voters in a democracy are looking through.

[QuietRunner]

@WhiteSteve
It seems the same tactic is going on for President Trump and Republicans. Why now is the real estate crime important? Why not 10 years ago?
It seems the attempt to sully the name of Trump and Republicans broadly is going on also. I watched the inauguration speech by President Biden. He still hasn't healed the nation yet, President Biden keeps yelling at MAGA Republicans. What President Biden thinks he says when says MAGA Republicans and what people understand are two different things. There are neighbors to be love and be nice too. That fails on both sides.
Also many, many rich people could donate to the government for some for potholes. Will you?

From the official Treasury department website:
www.fiscal.treasury.gov/.../...-to-government.html

[WhiteSteve]

@Sharkstealth I’m saying that most people aren’t economists, and if you aren’t a trained economist, I highly question your ability to assess the true state of the economy beyond a surface level of “how much am I paying?” That’s the elementary school perspective, so non-economists assessing and opining on the economy particularly strongly is just nothing I could ever take seriously.

[WhiteSteve]

@QuietRunner ok, so, healing the country…. can you say, in any measure of honesty, that the MAGA right gave Biden even a DAY to show if he was good or not? It’s been “Let’s Go, Brandon” from the jump. Also the whole reason MAGA is being opposed is because they’re largely bad people (maybe not wholly, but have some terrible disqualifying views that outweigh the positives) with poor values on a social level, judgmental of those different from them, all sorts of “-ists” and “-phobics”…. like these are kind of objectively poor character people, that’s the whole reason that there’s such strong opposition. It would be embarrassing and shameful to operate in the manner they wish to operate. That’s bigger than Democrat or Republican, it’s just “are you a good person who cares about others, or are you a judgmental and persecutorial prick just worried about your own personal quality of life?

Like we’re past “I think there should be higher taxes and more business regulations”, “well, WE think there should be lower taxes and fewer business regulations”….. this is like “why don’t you have a fucking soul, bro? What’s wrong with you?” We’re trying to abandon gross old attitudes from the past, and, y’know, become better, more evolved humans. The US history books are FILLED with people stuck in their old ways that needed to be dragged kicking and screaming into new eras, and in retrospect, we view that positively. I’m sure it’s unpopular in the moment, but when I’m 80 or 90 and about to die, I hope I can look back and say “humans are better people than when I started my life.”

[WhiteSteve]

@QuietRunner I just want these lunatic social attitudes to go away, stop being so terrified that you might have a gay son, lmfao, as if anyone is just going to be “influenced” into taking a D in the A because they saw a rainbow at Target. Just lmfao. It’s hateful, its ignorant, and it’s nonsense. That’s what I need to be eradicated. After that, we can resume normal bickering, but we’re really off the rails and focusing on the wrong shit.

And look…the left gave Trump no shot from Day One either, I get that. I felt like it proved itself to be warranted, at very least in the social moods it created, but to be fair, the sky didn’t fall either. I think we give Presidents too much credit/and blame. Shit just happens in life, and someone will always be in charge at that time, and they’ll take whatever response comes, deserved or not, because I can’t stress enough, the average person is dumb as fuck and not to be trusted to make accurate assessments of life. Like ask any voter why they’re going to vote for either guy, and most people won’t give you a legitimately valid answer. I have issues with democracy because people are dumb and don’t actually know what’s best for themselves, despite their extreme confidence that they do. Humans are livestock that need to be managed, basically.

I agree that we need to bring the temperature down, though, we aren’t in a good place at all.

[WhiteSteve]

@QuietRunner Oh, and I meant to say…. while I could believe some these prosecutors relish going after Trump, that in no way invalidates the effort, provided they can bring a substantial case. I’ll be the first to point a finger if they get laughed out of court. But it’s seemingly like they legitimately have some stuff. And remember these charges were all being investigated and coming down the pipe before Trump declared he was running again, and the common feeling is that he declared his candidacy uncharacteristically early JUST for the ability to frame it as political. Seems a little odd that he’d announce RIGHT before the charges started coming but the investigations were well underway.

[QuietRunner]

@WhiteSteve
So you are in favor of a dictator to manage the people of the United States?

[WhiteSteve]

@QuietRunner mmm…. is it a benevolent dictator? I feel like democracy leads to selfishly-based voting, not to mention uninformed voting, and that leads to all kinds of problems, since most people are kind of inherently selfish.

[QuietRunner]

@WhiteSteve
John Adams said, “Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” Morality and virtue are the foundation of our republic and necessary for a society to be free.

this is one reason more selfishness could be happening

[Sharkstealth]

Ms13 and 18 are increasing in numbers and terrorizing the east coast mostly due to Biden. As soon as Biden becomes president war breaks out from our biggest enemies in history. Interest rates are very high.
It's a good thing we have economists who tell us things are great. I wonder how many boys got laid for agreeing that Trump sucks by genius females. I bet economists were part of this group.

[exitseven]

I was never a fan of him and did not know how he would be able to be President of the US and be Donald Trump at the same time. I voted for him because the alternative was just so much worse.
It turned out that he made a lot of promises and actually kept them. He would have finished doing a lot more if he had a second term. In my whole life it wa the first time I ever felt like I had representation in Washington. I could see how putting America First made a huge difference. Trump was the outsider so there were no backroom deals and a vig skimmed off the top for crooked politicians. He was already a billionaire and he already had a successful business and had a hit television show, Maybe he is doing this to feed the worlds biggest ego. I don;t know why somebody would not just ride off into the sunset. Is it really hard to believe that he just wants to leave a strong and safe America for his kids and grandkids?
I want to see him have a second term and if he does not have to worry about re-election and will not have the growing pains of the first term I wonder how much he will be able to do.

[exitseven]

Trump was a surprise for me. I did not expect much from hi but voted for him anyway. It turns out that even though he is a billionaire egomaniac his policies aligned with my own. I think it was actually easy for him to fix a lot of the problems plaguing America because he was not bought and paid for by big corporations or foreign governments. I think it demonstrated that the backroom deals and the foreign kickbacks are not really victimless crimes because we all end up paying for them.
The whole thing might just be one big scam, meanwhile we had control over our border, low gas prices and low inflation. The stock market did very well and unemployment was low. Wagas rose across all demographic groups and we did not engage in any new wars.
Is it really hard to believe that he might just want to leave a strong and prosperous country for his kids and grandkids<?

[WhiteSteve]

Yeah, man, I mean, I think you and I have very fundamentally different driving forces that go beyond Trump. I’m not super keen on the idea of countries, I think that’s globally divisive. And the further into the calendar we go, the closer we get to a more globalist system. I’m not a “rah-rah, GO AMERICA!” guy, and that’s not even because I have a problem with America. I wouldn’t be “rah-rah, GO BELGIUM!” or “rah-rah, GO TURKMENISTAN!” either. Like the concept of patriotism, and even more so, nationalism, for ANY country, is inherently goofy at its core, to me. And the world would be a better place if we abandoned all these “team” mentalities we have. You ever hear of that poor guy who got his head stomped in at Dodger Stadium, caught a permanent brain injury, forever disabled, because he was a Giants fan. That’s moronic, and international beef is just that same concept on steroids. So I’ll just never be dead set on preservation of the system we currently have, because I think we can do a lot better, if we can stop being ignorant and just work together with people who aren’t like us culturally, and them with us. We make life dumber than it needs to be, lmao.

[WhiteSteve]

But my issue with Trump or even just the right wing in general, as fractured and faction’d as it seems right now, has never been so much about fiscal policy, but their social attitudes. I have absolutely no room for bigotry of any kind. I’m a “universal acceptance” guy, that’s priority A-number-1 for me in life, I don’t care if I live in a shanty town and bathe in the same river I drink from, it’s not about quality of life or standard of living AT ALL. That stuff is great, but not at the expense of my decency and compassion. Absolutely nothing in the world matters more than that, not prosperity, not safety, not security…. DECENCY, TO EVERYBODY, NO EXCEPTIONS, FULL STOP. There can be no negotiations without that baseline, and that shouldn’t even be a big ask of anyone. Or I don’t know, it might mean our entire lifestyles as we know them have to do a 180…. doesn’t matter. Recalibrate, and move forward with 100% pure souls and 100% benevolent intentions. Someone has to do it, might as well be our living generations.

[WhiteSteve]

Maybe that’s too drastic for most, and that’s fine, but the fact remains, I can’t come to the table until I know the people on the other side are benevolent people with unselfish goals and unwaveringly kind values. Then, and ONLY THEN, we can peacefully talk about tax rates, lmao. The right needs to stop worrying so much about what people who aren’t yourself are doing. There’s too much paranoia about being victimized by crime, too many political conspiracy theories, too much fear of possibly having an LGBTQ kid, having something taken from you…. from where I’m standing, no offense, but you all just seem irrationally scared of boogeymen that either don’t exist at all, or have been grossly exaggerated by right wing politicians and media, and/or mischaracterized for this very result we get of responsive outrage, which causes the voter base to donate money, vote, etc, which is their endgame. Make money, get power. And Trump, incidentally, loves both of those things, haha.

And it’s sad because we should all be able to connect more. We were talking about a beautiful moment with you and your daughter earlier today, that was cool. I know you’re a good guy and you just want to look after your family. We all have to take the temperature down with each other, we’re at each other’s necks, and it’s not good, no matter which direction the country goes. People on the left are over-hyped about a lot of things too, it’s not just the right. I’m an Independent, I’m trending left these days, but I get it, some shit is a little hostile. I think there are some teaching moments people are trying to have, but the message delivery is antagonistic.

[WhiteSteve]

But Trump specifically…. I think you and I also differ in that you see the US as some lynchpin to world security, and I don’t quite see it that way. I don’t think who the US president is is going to make a whole hell of a lot of difference in terms of whether or not crazy ass Putin will invade Ukraine or not. Also…only America thinks of America this much. I think we’re a little high on ourselves to think that other countries make moves based on whether or not America will like it.

Covid happened on Trump’s watch…. I have qualms with his response, but the Covid itself is in no way his fault. But honestly, in your heart of hearts, if that happened under Hillary, or Biden, or GOD FORBID Obama, do you really think the right wing wouldn’t be saying this never would have happened if a Republican had been in charge? Or worse, that this was done in cahoots with Xi in China for some nefarious reason? I kind of feel like we’d be hearing that. Maybe I’m wrong, but that’s my instinct.

But in life…. stuff largely “just happens”, kind of at random, and someone will always be at the helm somewhere, and we could spin any negative event to be “this NEVER would have happened if so-and-so was/wasn’t in charge!”, but I don’t think that’s accurate. It’s very easy to say, but impossible to prove either way, and that’s the gray area those claims live in. So I think any of these measurables, good or bad, are a real stretch to just attribute to the presidency of this guy or that guy.

[WhiteSteve]

So in the end, it’s “who’s my most decent option?” *clenches teeth* It’s Joe Biden for me.
I’m not super impressed, but I’m not super offended. Performance? My life is the same no matter who the president has been, I’m on more or less my 7th one (wasn’t really conscious for Carter), and I can say without a doubt that my life has never wavered in any significant way as the result of a president or a politician. What I’m looking for is “How can my government help others and help me help others?” That’s what I’m truly looking for.

Sorry in advance for the half a dozen notifications you’re going to get😂

[FunkyMonkee]

"I have absolutely no room for bigotry of any kind." Then, why stick by democrats? Especially Joey! He's about as bigoted as they come! His best friend was the leader of the KKK and Joey spoke at his funeral about what a great guy he was. He says all kinds of racist shit!! So far, I haven't heard a single racist word come from Trump! He used to date a black girl or two! I've also seen him kiss a black baby! Ain't no racist would EVER let his/her white lips touch black skin!!

[Drewtate]

@OddBeMe probably just issue licences to illegals.

[exitseven]

I never thought of that.

[FunkyMonkee]

Where are they gonna get the money to buy the front end of the trucks?
Also, legal truckers might stop them from delivering.

[Drewtate]

@FunkyMonkee where do Liberals get the money to do anything?
Legal truckers? Its only ilegal when the government makes it ilegal.

[FunkyMonkee]

Selling drugs, prostitution, lying, cheating, stealing, you know, the usual liberal shit or, MAYBE just getting a good paying job and saving up for it.
Has the government made illegals legally able to drive trucks? From what I know, they'd have to take special classes to be able to get a CDC license. I would think that that and buying one of those cabs would require you to show citizenship AND a steady address!! Something more stable than, "third tent on the left".

[Drewtate]

@FunkyMonkee I mean the new York authorities would just buy them or provide loans, paid for with taxpayer money.
Probably rope in the new York national guard.

[FunkyMonkee]

I guess that's possible.

[Drewtate]

@FunkyMonkee Liberals tax the shit out of working people then blow that money on some mad scheme, like a bus for only women

[FunkyMonkee]

Those goofy bastards are always doing stupid shit!!

[Sharkstealth]

@FunkyMonkee A basic Cdl class A requires a regular driver's license with endorsements so it would be much like qualifications for a normal state license. If they have Hazmat endorsement it requires finger printing and a background check from TSA.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Sharkstealth I would think that background check would preclude them from getting one. Also, don't you have to have a work visa to get work in another country?

[Sharkstealth]

@FunkyMonkee definitely to be a truck driver but work in general no. I worked for a warehouse once that Imigration officers raided twice because most of the workers were illegals. It's the same with many occupations especially inner cities.

[Avicenna]

Good for them. But I'd expect the Democrats to illegally target them as well.

[exitseven]

It is hard to stop an 18 wheeler once it gets into 10th gear.

[Avicenna]

True. I'm thinking something along the lines of the illegal stuff Trudeau did to the Canadian truckers.

[exitseven]

That could happen but then they will boycott Washington DC.

[Avicenna]

They should do that too. Both cities are corrupt cesspools.

[lightbulb27]

wow... first I'd herad. surprised they have that power. The city won't last long without food, although some stuff is flown in. I'm sure they'd find ways to bring in by train or secondary workers, but trucks are a life blood of delivery. how many LGBTQAC!&+=- truckers are there?

it's amazing a bunch of truck drivers stand behind a nyc billionaire.

scotty... beam me up...

[exitseven]

They interviewed one of the union truckers and he said that 95% of the tuckers are big Trump supporters. If it does not cause shortages, it will cause prices to go up dramatically from an already elevated price. I imagine they may go to other cities as well.

[FunkyMonkee]

Apparently, there's no trains going in.
Nothing wrong with that seeing as how he's done absolutely nothing wrong!

[exitseven]

@lightbulb27 Even if 10% of the deliveries do not get made the price of everything will double overnight and there will be widespread shortages of certain items. It is not only truckers but companies will not do business wit hNew York anymore. It is bad that it has gotten thisbad but people voted for these people and they need to understand the consequences.

[lightbulb27]

that's the way to apply pressure. Mr. Wonderful also noted time to move business out. will be observing for shortages...

[Red_Arrow]

SOME truck drivers will boycott driving to NYC because Trump was found guilty of the things he did in a legal court of law. Meanwhile, truck drivers who are smart enough to see that the rulings were correct will continue driving to NYC and keep their jobs as those who refuse to drive to NYC will lose their customers and possibly their jobs. NYC will continue to eat well and the drivers going there will have that much more money for taking over what the idiots boycotted.

[Sharkstealth]

These drivers take jobs as they see fit. Truck driving is one of the most reliable and profitable jobs in our country. If they own their own truck they can take whatever job they want. I know truck drivers who have made 200k to 300k annually in the 80s to 90s.

[Kelley1]

It there was a total boycott, it would take 3 days for stores to be emptied of most food; less if people panicked and started buying up food. However, not all truckers would join the boycott and other truckers would deliver when offered triple their normal rates.

[FunkyMonkee]

I know! Isn't it great?
Well, with all the looting they have going on there, it might only be a few days before they run out! Most likely, that and hording is already going on!
I was thinking a few hours ago that, people that are working on new buildings should go on strike, too!! This shit against Trump is gonna be hurting them just as much as Trump!

[Bricealan]

Somehow, this whole nightmare has to end somewhere, but just where and when?

Honest to god, I am just almost speechless to see what is continuing to go on, not only in New York but all over the country.

We all have to fight for this country,

[FunkyMonkee]

Blame it on the dummycrats!!

[Lliam]

I don't know what it is the beginning of, but I'm glad truckers and others are standing up and taking peaceful action.

[exitseven]

Truckers control everything that goes in and out of every major city in the USA, They can topple a whole state without firing a shot. 95% of truckers are Trump supporters.

[Dargil]

Yes, it is. Others will see that a work action will get the attention of the ruling elite when their Chateau Mouton isn't in the shelf. They will also boycot the supply and delivery of itsms th elite live for.

@FunkyMonkee Is this fake? I still have heard squat about it. This video still didn't say what it is about except NY is a loser state. And California IS a loser state too.

[FunkyMonkee]

It's because of what that New York judge did to Trump the other day! I've already seen 5 or 6 videos about it starting yesterday.

[FunkyMonkee]

Unless you only watch/read corporate-owned "news", I can't imagine how you missed it! Just a few hours ago, I heard about it on an Australian news channel!

[exitseven]

@FunkyMonkee There are a lot of people , especially the elderly that cannot afford able do they get their news from the state run media like NBC. If you talk about Hunters laptop they have never heard ot if.

I guess amazon will be delivering food soon, it’s only the independent truckers that are doing that , the ones that work for a company are still moving but it will affect prices and shipments that are a full load of materials

[jshm2]

These are the same shitlarks who "protested" facemasks and vaccines, no doubt

So stupid is as stupid does.

[FunkyMonkee]

Yet, the people that took the shots are crippled or dead! Those that didn't are still alive and well. Who's stupid, now?

[jshm2]

@FunkyMonkee You are stupid now. Millions more survived and were not "crippled" by the shots.

[FunkyMonkee]

I'm alive and healthy! How does that make ME stupid?
SO FAR, bunches of those people aren't dead or crippled, yet but, that might come in the near future! all they had to do was buy some HQC! Why fuck with a drug you know nothing about when the cure is at hand?

[WindAtMyBack]

There won't be enough of them to make a difference.

[FunkyMonkee]

How many truckers do you think there are?

[WindAtMyBack]

@FunkyMonkee
I don't know. But looking at several sources it doesn't seem like it's more than a hand full at this point.

[FunkyMonkee]

We'll see what happens later today.

[pethouse]

I had no idea that was happening. It will probably have serious consequences, But I’m going to guess that eventually the city of New York is just going to amp up the prices and pay higher wages to the truckers that will continue to supply them.

[Twalli]

Bot all truckers will and if they refuse to deliver there when their job demands it, they will not have a job. Honestly I don't care if jobless truckers don't go go New York.

[msc545]

More stupid trucker bullshit. Nobody cares and it will change nothing.

[exitseven]

Wait until they stop delivering beer in LA., the thirsty will come for you.

[msc545]

They will never stop delivering beer

[Anonymous]

Further proof that Americans really are that stupid.

[Daniela1982]

They will be even more stupid if they vote for a senile old lecher like Bite-on-it. 🤣😂😅

[FunkyMonkee]

Stupid enough to stand up for the rights of someone punished for crimes they never committed?

[Iron_Man]

Donald Trump is getting screwed by the government by the judges. Obviously they’re Democrats

[Jennz6]

Good, I am glad someone is helping Trump

[melnc]

I support watching it be humiliating for them.

[douride2]

Don't you mean former president?

[exitseven]

Yes but it is like he never left.

[Paris13]

Just Heard. NOT GOOD!!! xxoo

[888theGreat]

Nope, but I support them
