A group of truckers who support former President Donald Trump said they are boycotting New York City. The boycott is in response to a court ruling in which a New York judge ordered Trump to pay $355 million.
Manhattan Supreme Court Judge Arthur Engoron also restricted the former president from doing business in New York after ruling Trump inflated his net worth to benefit his companies.
The truckers supporting Trump said if the city doesn’t want Trump doing business there, then they will pull their business and refuse to transport goods to New York City.
The truckers took to social media to offer their support for Trump and encourage other truckers to refuse to carry loads to the city.
“We’re gonna stand for something man. We’re gonna stand for Trump, man,” one trucker posted on X. “What I’m hearing over here, this is on man, this is on.”
Trump acknowledged the truckers’ efforts on his platform Truth Social, calling it “an honor to have so many great patriots on the side of freedom.”
It is unclear how widespread the proposed boycott will be or the impact it may have on New York.
