This is one of the stupidest things ever.
How many drivers will it actually be? Independent drivers bid on loads. If no one bids on NY loads it means 2 things. One, the price to deliver to NY will go up and become lucrative. The price for other loads will go down as more drivers are chasing those loads. Independents will quickly not be part of this boycott because it will hurt them financially.

Drivers that drive for companies will find one of 2 things. If they are not unionized, then their employer will be free to fire them for refusing to take loads. If they are union, their union will not support their decision to not take loads since it would violate the union contract.

There will be about 100 truckers that probably have never once even been to NY claiming they will never take a load there and the rest of the trucking industry will ignore them.

They will lose money and their jobs to back a guy who does not care about them at all. Typical Trumpys.

Newsmax. How quaint.
The trucking industry is in dire straits. If these are independent truckers, they will lose their homes too.

If they work for a carrier, they will be fired.

Maybe trump will hire them to sell his $400 Nike knockoffs on street corners?

Defunding the police was a Democrat thing.

sorry asshole, it was the GOP.

'Create havoc': House GOP wants to defund the FBI.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-GA., called to defund the FBI on X, formerly known as Twitter. This position has been reiterated by other members of the House in recent months, including Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, and Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Florida.
“I think the FBI as an institution should not exist,” Ramaswamy told USA TODAY.

Wrong!

Trump’s attorneys, acting on his behalf, did not put in a request for a jury trial when they had the opportunity to do so earlier this year, according to online court records.

Hey stupid. Here's a quote from the article you linked to :

Judge Arthur Engoron, who is presiding over the case, suggested after the start of the trial that he would have denied a request for a jury trial had he received one, saying the law mandates the case is “one that a judge alone decides.”

The judge says trump is not entitled to a jury trial even though the 7th amdt says he is!!!

The 7A in its entirety says :

In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law.


Pretty clearcut. You have an absolute right to jury trial in a civil case over 20 bucks. But Judge engoron said NYS has a law that overrides (!!!!) that and declared trump the loser and fined him $354 million.

Um, no he was not. His dumbfuck of a lawyer declined to (or was so stupid that they didn't notice) mark the part of the form they filed to recieve for a jury trial.

uraliar. Refer to post 30 above. Judge engoron said he would not allow a jury to hear the case.

No, he stated post-facto that if Trump and his lawyer had applied to do a jury trial it was possible he would have denied it (which judges can actually do BTW). But the Trump team chose not to even try to get a jury trial either through incompetence or because that's what they wanted.
 
The endless details are boring the shit out of me.

I just want Trump in custody or dead.

Whatever it takes, that's what it takes.

Trump never had a problem with situational or transactional ethics.
If that's what's required to take him down,
then that's how Karma chose to operate.
