President Trump said the sound of truck horns south of the White House was a “sign of love” for him from truckers. But the truckers were actually honking in opposition of low shipping rates.

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump says the sound of truck horns just south of the White House is a “sign of love” for him from truckers. But the truckers are actually honking their opposition to low shipping rates.

“They're protesting in favor of President Trump,” the president claimed in the Rose Garden on Friday during an announcement about vaccine development. The blaring of truck horns wafted across the Ellipse and into the sun-splashed garden during that event and a ceremony Trump held in the afternoon to recognize good deeds during the coronavirus pandemic.But the drivers who have lined Constitution Avenue with their big rigs didn't come to Washington for Trump.

An initial flurry of freight shipments stemming from the coronavirus pandemic has subsided. As a result, many truckers have found themselves without freight to haul or with offers to deliver goods at rates they say are unsustainable.

“Sign of love” for Trump

Quizá es una forma que tiene el presidente de demostrar que puede con la presión, lo cual hace de manera excelente. Esperemos que pronto se solucione tal situación (de los transportistas.

The man is fucking deranged.

Does he lie every time he opens his mouth? It surely seems that way...

This is Trump narcissism in full bloom.

Don't you tell your loved ones about your problems?

Delusional Donny

He is a moron.

realDonaldTrump

The world is a Rorschach test to trump. It's about him, him, him and then him.

morningmika Joe's former intern....Look at that beautiful face!! JoeNBC joked about 'killing Lori' on the Imus show! I wonder if he still thinks that's really funny? I don't think realDonaldTrump does, and neither do WE!

morningmika How did he do it And how did he get away with it

Get back in your rigs and start haulin ass... I’m running low on T P

How do you know?

morningmika 'Murder! Your insides must be hollow How does it feel to take the life of another Yes, you can hide from man but not your conscience'

That just shows you how IGNORANT realDonaldTrump is....

FakeNews

morningmika As usual the guy in the White House is quite delusional

morningmika Trumps proven attempts to divert and distract the public away from his FAILURES, Govenors, Democrats, Obama, DOJ, FBI, Dr. Fauci, Pelosi, Facebook, Twitter, Deep State, the list goes on and on.

morningmika I just have to wonder why they even let you be on tv. You’re not a journalist. Not a reporter. Not even opinion/entertainment. You do nothing but hate. And lie. And these people believe everything you say! Thank god their numbers are small.

His mental illness is getting worse 👎

These guys voted for this moron. I feel bad for them, not bc they voted for him but bc they also have families to feed and trump won't hell them.

morningmika Delusional.....

morningmika What about psychojoe morningmika should do a hardcore interview with her colleague. DonaldJTrumpJr realDonaldTrump Qanon76

And those truckers support Trump and understand opening up America will increase the pay. Poor ignorant NBC reporter has to make up lies instead of investing things like ObamaGate

morningmika

morningmika Trumpian narcissistic tendency to make it all about self backfired.

morningmika 😂😂

He said they should charge Amazon four times what they do.. Last week

😂😂😂

President lies

morningmika 🤪😂😆🤣

So when I give you the middle finger you can choose to believe I think you are number one b

His ego knows no bounds

It looks like Trump is making all sorts of assumptions of his popularity going into Nov 2020.

FACTS. HE’S A TOOL

Before the pandemic shutdown/paranoia, there wasn’t enough trucks or drivers to meet the demand. This is a false narrative story. The democrats and liberals in DC are the problem with low rates!!

morningmika

Always about love for the mad man.

morningmika Goes to show how STUPID realDonaldTrump POTUS truly is.

TrumpDepression so much winning

morningmika
