Truckers will be the protesters that break Trump (r.50501.chat)

Shipments from Asia into Southern California ports have plummeted, meaning the truckers who typically drive those containers to their destination will be out of work soon. Truckers love to protest with a caravan of trucks or by stopping traffic with their trucks. It’s typically pretty effective.

When this happens, people will wake up and start to listen

Let’s all find a way to help them and make something happen. This is it!!

I've met many truckers, and used to work with a handful. They're all Trumpers, listening to conservative radio and evangelical radio on repeat. They're as programmed as can be. My stepdad is one of them, and I had him recently tell me that tariffs were good for truckers.

You've got a better chance of your average libertarian waking up and smelling the bullshit than you do your average trucker. They're going to suffer and blame the left for it, as usual.

Why would Joe Biden do that to them?
