The other day a trucker from the “freedom” convoy said once they get to DC the first thing that is going to happen was to deface the Black lives matter mural.
So it was not over covid mandates at all it was just a front for Trumps MAGA racists.
While they were in DC, the beltway was all clogged up! Mission Accomplished! Wait, you’re telling me that it was all clogged up before they got there, and after they left???
Not to mention the attention they thought they got from the media (like with the Ottowa convoy), was consumed by Ukraine, Energy prices, March Madness, etc. Surely these guys have bills to pay like everyone else. This is just a glorified temper tantrum, on the Convoy’s part. And they call us “Snowflakes”?
I was a trucker, now retired. I was a Teamster. Non union truckers complained about horrible unions are, especially the Teamsters, but insisted all truckers needed to stick together. Hmmm. Meanwhile I’m sitting at home on a nice pension and the rest will die with their boots on.
Truckers have never been “unified” and never will. Organizing a U.S. protest was like herding cats. Mostly it attracted that minority of s__tkickers who like to make noise and harass other people.

What it proves is that they have no issue other than to sow chaos and discord.

As far as COVID restrictions go, they’re shutting the barn door after the horses got out.

How long can truckers not earn money before they start losing their trucks? Let’s find out.

I’d like to see how any of you jokers would do without truckers and the services they provide. You’d “do without”, that’s what!

Maybe if they continue their protest, driving to Bangor, Miami, San Diego and Tacoma, I will become sympathetic toward their fuel cost…
