The New York Post reports:
Trump-supporting truckers are saying they are refusing to drive to New York City after the former president was slapped with a $355 million fine in his fraud case last week. A conservative social media influencer and trucker who goes by Chicago Ray posted a video clip in which he claims that some of his colleagues are going to stop making deliveries to New York City to protest the ruling, issued in Manhattan Supreme court on Friday.
“I don’t know how far across the country this is or how many truckers are going to start denying loads going to New York City, but I’ll tell you what — you fuck around and find out,” Ray said. “Our bosses ain’t gonna care about these loads, we will just go somewhere else. Do you know how fucking hard it is to get into New York City with one of these? Truckers are for Trump. Ain’t no motherfuckers are for Biden.”
