Unless the company backs them which is doubtful, they will be unemployed. I don't see how the independents can survive financially to pull a stupid act as this but then this is Trump.

He fks up and everyone else pays for it.

Just a wild ass guess, but maybe they will deliver to 47 other states in the US.

When you consider what illegal immigration costs the US every year, Trump was absolutely correct when he said that Mexico would pay for it. The money saved in just one year alone would pay for multiple walls.

About 65% of our Winter vegetables come from Mexico. If the truckers started refusing vegetable loads to NY, it would have an impact. But, most of the drivers are Muslims and will do anything for a buck.

Well, lets see if any of this comes through.
A week of delays would hurt the public for sure.
