There’s a very good chance that New York City grocery stores and retail shops could be running low on supplies over the next few weeks. That’s because a number of truck drivers are boycotting the Big Apple to protest the $35 million verdict in President Trump’s civil fraud trial.
A trucker with the X name “Chicago Ray” took to the social media platform Friday night and posted a video in which he expressed fellow truckers’ outrage at the verdict.
“I’ve been on the radio for over an hour and I’ve talked to at least (10) Truckers who are gonna start refusing loads of Monday for (NYC) …I talked to (3) guys that I work with who texted the boss and told him no (NYC),” Chicago Ray posted on X.
President Trump was quick to respond on Truth Social, saying:
“Truckers are (95%) Trump… it’ll get overturned on appeal but you know how f**ken hard it is to get one of these mfrs into (NYC) cut the bulls**t I’ll cya down the road”
According to Chicago Ray, truckers expressed their exhaustion with leftists who were solely focused on targeting Trump. Additionally, Ray mentioned that the bosses of these truckers showed no concern regarding the destination of the loads.
“I don’t wish nothing on nobody, but what I’m hearing, this is real,” he said. “MAGA isn’t a Cult ….. it’s a way of life, and from now on we will be choosing our representatives in congress & that’s why Democrats & the media are scared to death.”
Ray’s post had garnered over 5.4 million views and accumulated more than 54,000 likes by Sunday morning, as per the report by Newsmax.com. Following Chicago Ray’s video, numerous individuals have expressed their support for the purported boycott.
“Food doesn’t grow in the produce section and products don’t magically appear on store shelves. I stand with the truckers fighting NYC’s witch hunt against President Trump,” Rep. Matt Rosendale (R-MT) wrote on X. “The leaders of the city will soon learn America is fed up with their antics.”
