Freedom Convoy (USA edition)

Forums:

They said it was going to start today, but checked out the Twitters and didn't seem like much was happening.  About a half dozen semis and and handful of the obligatory bubba trucks festooned with oversize FJB and American flags.

 

More from Twitter:

DC trucker convoy update from Scranton, PA: There is currently only one truck in the convoy. Organizer Bob Bolus said they expected more people to join, and will call off the convoy if others don’t show up Convoy was scheduled to leave an hour and 45 minutes ago.

I guess the tyranny in the US isn't as bad as Canada

> here is currently only one truck in the convoy

Someone needs to tell that schmuck that one truck does not a convoy make. Just sayin'.

So, maybe a loosely organized "convoy" of largely MAGA'ts starting in different areas of the country with plans to descend upon the D.C area (without actually entering D.C.?) and already missing their March 1 ETA, possibly in hopes of coinciding with the March 1 'State of The Union' address. Aside from a huge waste of gas and other resources, this BS movement is probably going to amount to much of nothing. It takes real brains to pre-announce a big protest of large, difficult to maneuver vehicles into a metro area - D.C. no less - in a post 911, post Jan 6 world. LOL. I'll be waiting for their demands to be made/met as they throw their collective weight around in the face of an awaiting 700 National Guard troops. LOL

I heard they were going to disrupt the Super Bowl. Some weak effort there bubba's 

Wonder how these jamokes are liking the cost of fuel these days.

Sen. Ted Cruz is joining these idiots as they drive aimlessly around the DC beltway today.   For reals.

 

^Cruz is pretty much hated by colleagues, so it will be nice for him to spend time with other bags of shit. A little positive affirmation, if you will.

 

 

Ted Cruz is always aimless in D.C. as it is anyway.

Ted Cruise 

Towed Cruz?

Cozumel Cruz? Truckin' Ted?

last year he was Ted VeraCruz and couldn't be reached for comment on the cold snap in his home state...

this year he's remodeling himself as Joe Workingman.

Someone posted on Twitter reminding folks Cruz voted against saving these trucker's pensions last year. 

Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) gave truckers in the so-called “People’s Convoy” a tour of the Capitol last week — even as the building remains mostly closed to the public.
