Are Truckers Going on Strike October 1? What Diesel Prices Say
A claim that U.S. truckers are planning a nationwide strike on October 1 over soaring diesel prices has spread rapidly across social media, but there is little evidence so far of an organized nationwide is strike being planned.
As diesel fuel reaches a record high of $6.51 a gallon, videos and AI-generated posters have circulated claiming that frustrated truckers are going to take action and warning that a strike could disrupt freight deliveries and cause food shortages across the country.newsweek.com - Are truckers going on strike october what diesel prices sayWe have seen similar demonstrations in other countries, over the years. I remember roads in France clogged with tractors, in a farmer's protest. Most of us probably remember when truckers blocked streets in Ottawa a few years ago.
If such a demonstration did materialize in the US, what would happen?
Trump is a "JC", so his first impulse would probably be to say "shut up and work".
Trump is also a con man, so he might say "elect a Congress of my bootlickers, and I will send you money, to offset the fuel price."
Or, he could take a page out of Saint Reagan's book, and order the army and national guard to haul freight.
