QuoteAmerican truckers have been working overtime since the beginning of the pandemic to deliver needed goods all over the country, and they have done a great job.
The left's new effort to 'defund the police' is making some truckers nervous, and who can blame them?We now have cities that are already going to be short on supplies due to the looting and burning of stores. What happens when truckers start refusing to deliver goods to these places? It could happen.
What are the leaders of cities like Seattle and Minneapolis going to tell residents when their communities run out of food, gasoline, beer, shoes, clothes, paper products, and countless other goods?

Stop delivering those cheap ass china goods to Walmart. Walmart didn't hold that crap back but they sure as hell tried to limit us to two milks when there was PLENTY Of milk..SO MUCH MILK that there was NO NEED to limit anything. Conservative trump supporting truckers...refuse to deliver to liberal supporting stores. That'd change the dynamic a bit.
I don't remember where I was reading about this. It's not just independent truckers but biggervtrucking companies also. I say good for the truckers.

I'd love to see truckers go on a protest of their own in not servicing cities or any locals that support police defunding.
No police, no transports!!
Likely insurance companies will refuse to insure also, the way things are going. Insurance rates in big liberal cities are much higher already.
As long as they keep getting paid they'll keep delivering.
Most people care more about money than politics...

That's what Reginald Denny was screaming when he was pulled out of the truck... "Hey, aren't you guys a bunch of liberals?!?!?!"

They will keep driving and getting paid. They just won't be delivering into places where there is reduced or no police protection Joe the Troll.
