Truck driver says other truckers will stop accepting loads from NYC after Trump verdict

Update: The trucker who posted this video later took it down, saying "I took down that video because it went viral, it went on TikTok, not because I don't stand by what I said, because I do. But you know my grandson has seen it, and you know, he got a little hurt by it and it hurt my feelings." He went on to explain how truckers have the freedom to do what they want and was only relaying what he heard from others. 

On Friday, a truck driver who goes by Chicago Ray online said that other truckers are going to start refusing loads to New York City.

In a video posted to X, Ray claims he was told by at least ten other truck drivers that starting Monday they are going to stop going to NYC. "I talked to (3) guys that I work with who texted the boss and told him no (NYC)," he said.

"I do know how far across the country this is, or how many truckers are gonna start denying loads to New York City," Ray continued. "But I tell you what, you f**k around and find out. Ok, We're tired of you motherf**king leftist f**king with Trump."

"Our bosses aren't going to care if we deny the loads, we'll just go somewhere else," he noted. "By what I'm hearing, this is real. We'll see."

Chicago Ray went on to warn again to leave former President Trump alone, and that the fraud case against him in NYC amounts to "election interference."

The trucker also recently applauded the Take our Border back Convoy late in January. 

Former President Donald Trump was ordered to pay $354 million in damages in a civil fraud case in NYC. Attorney General Letitia James was seeking $370 million in damages after she argued Trump inflated the value of his business entities in the city with real estate pricing and accused him of engaging in a pattern of "repeated and persistent fraud."

In a post on Truth Social, the former president slammed the decision. He said, "A Crooked New York State Judge, working with a totally Corrupt Attorney General who ran on the basis of 'I will get Trump,' before knowing anything about me or my company, has just fined me $355 Million based on nothing other than having built a GREAT COMPANY. ELECTION INTERFERENCE. WITCH HUNT."

"The Justice System in New York State, and America as a whole, is under assault by partisan, deluded, biased Judges and Prosecutors," Trump added. "Racist, Corrupt A.G. Tish James has been obsessed with “Getting Trump” for years, and used Crooked New York State Judge Engoron to get an illegal, unAmerican judgment against me, my family, and my tremendous business."

"I helped New York City during its worst of times, and now, while it is overrun with Violent Biden Migrant Crime, the Radicals are doing all they can to kick me out," the former president noted before he called the decision "a Complete and Total SHAM."
