Sad.
The major trucking organizations don't support this. Most American truckers don't support this. This is a small group and they know it will not play out in the US like it did in Canada. There are many ways to shut this down. The police and DOT can do a lot to stop them.

That's fine! That's what the Mall is for. I don't have to agree with them to support their right to protest lawfully.
Blocking regional highway traffic to punish everyone around you? Nope, go to jail.

Hope y'all are proud to have your movement led by a guy who's literally a criminal scumbag.
Who are you even talking to? I doubt there are many truckers on this website. It's not "our movement" - but they have every right to protest, wouldn't you agree? Sure you would.
Right to protest? Sure. Right to block traffic for hundreds of thousands of everyday workers? Hell no.
That is within the right to protest. Now could they be arrested for breaking the law. Sure.
Idiots think they can just decide what their rights and the Constitution are. Sorry, but welcome to reality - rights and the Constitution have real meaning. It is not a right, nor Constitutional, to intentionally use a bunch of big trucks to clog interstate highways as a political stunt. That is illegal, even if it is a "protest."

Can they be stopped before ever getting anywhere to disrupt?

They'll be fired, and all the people who depend on gas, food, and medications will be disgusted with them. They'll be replaced, by autonomous trucks if necessary. And they'll waste the rest of their lives drinking cheap beer, watching OANN, and dreaming of being heroes fighting against idiotic conspiracy theories.
Go for it!

Just watched a lovely video of the Canadian "truckers" harassing and spitting on reporters. What a bunch of idiots.

Same with teachers. Medical professionals. Sanitation workers. Farm laborers. Flight attendants. Food production workers.
Workers of the world, unite!
100%
I'd like to see a mass walk-out of these professions.
What basically amounted to a sickout by air traffic controllers ended the longest government shutdown in American history.

CRT? Seriously?
It's because the truckers listen to right wing talk radio and podcasts all day long while driving down highways. They see very little of the real world beyond roadways, and their views are influenced by warped pundits. So yeah, they have no idea what's really going on in reality.
