(AP Photo/Nick Ut, File) One of the underlying, long-term issues behind some of the supply chain issues is that the claim that there’s a shortage of truck drivers. The American Trucking Association said the trucking industry is short more than 80,000 drivers, which is one of the reasons for the delays across the country.
So, you would think if that’s an issue, you would want to do what you could to encourage more people to be involved in the industry. That would seem to be a logical response.
Yet, MSNBC’s Tiffany Cross, while professing to want to encourage more people of color to become drivers also smeared the industry as racist during a segment. Not to mention as bad drivers as well. MSNBC’s @TiffanyDCross : Trucking “is an industry populated by a lot of white men over the age of 55. This group of people overwhelmingly voted for Trump. Some people have talked about, you know, aggressive truck drivers cutting them off or not being helpful.” pic.twitter.com/Ob8Kg03Dwa — Tom Elliott (@tomselliott) November 14, 2021 Trucking “is an industry populated by a lot of white men over the age of 55,” Cross said. “This group of people overwhelmingly voted for Trump. Some people have talked about, you know, aggressive truck drivers cutting them off or not being helpful.”
Cross just cobbles all that together — racism, support for Trump and being bad drivers. Talk about a stereotype falsely being used to indict an industry.
Is there anything that MSNBC will not try to make about either Trump or racism?
Cross is demeaning the very people that she relies on for her basic goods every day. How exactly is that encouraging anyone to want to be part of the industry? And they’re bad because they voted for Trump? So, more than 74 million people are bad in the eyes of MSNBC. And you wonder why their ratings are in the basement?
Maybe she can feed this nonsense to the liberals who watch MSNBC, but most Americans reject the racist division she’s pushing.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
