EXCLUSIVE: Rand Paul Encourages Truckers to Come to America and ‘Clog Cities Up’
Mary Margaret Olohan February 10, 2022
Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky is “all for” trucker convoys coming to the United States.
The Republican senator discussed the Canadian “Freedom Convoy” during a Thursday interview with The Daily Signal following an NBC News report that a similar trucker convoy may form for this weekend’s Super Bowl in Los Angeles–and potentially come to Washington, D.C., for the State of the Union address in early March.
“I’m all for it,” Paul said. “Civil disobedience is a time-honored tradition in our country, from slavery to civil rights, you name it. Peaceful protest, clog things up, make people think about the mandates.”
“And some of this, we started,” he added. “We put [COVID-19] mandates on truckers coming across the border from Canada so then they put mandates on, and the truckers are annoyed. They’re riding in a cab by themselves, most of them for eight, 10-hour long hauls, and they just want to do what they want to do. It’s their own business.”
