So the media is hyping how a trucker snarl-up could shutdown the superbowl.
Ok, I can see how it could. Traffic is a nightmare even on good stadium days around most games. A few stalled vehicles could stop traffic cold miles away.
But aren't they just hurting people who are already on their side?
I mean really, people going to football games, especially the superbowl, are very well healed and generally conservative. You almost never see masks in the crowds at most games. The league doesn't support requiring them in the stands.
Why would they hurt their own supporters, or at least people who agree to some degree?
Or is it just for impact? Lookie what weee can dooooo-doooo up!
I guess that could be it.

Somebody new is watching, and it seems the eyeballs they had, they still have.
Lying about stuff like that is in their DNA.

(4,298 posts)They will go out of their way to hurt them so long as they believe they are owning the libs, the libs' President, the libs' Congress. That is all that matters to them. They will jump to the side of a few legitimate anti-vaxxers and the cause their own. They don't care about their own children just let them have their guns, their Bibles, and their fascists leaders who SAY they hate the same people their supporters do.
Now the feds need to be more mindful of whom they contract with to deliver their goods and services. Let the private sector fend for itself with their GOP good buddies.
