48. Real Truckers

Sat Feb 12, 2022, 01:35 PM

Feb 2022

Real truckers are Teamsters. I would never hire anything less, and always ask delivery drivers at my door their union status.

How many union drivers—secure in their financial and social position— are willing to throw it all away by protesting to support “freedumb” organizers who don’t give a shit when they’re unemployed and their families go hungry?

These are pretend truckers blocking the roads and preventing real truckers from delivering goods.
