Mo Brooks: U.S. Should Grant Canadian Truckers Political Asylum

Jeff Poor 18 Feb 2022

Representative Mo Brooks (R-AL) suggests an outside-the-box approach to taking on any truck driver shortages the United States faces.

During an interview with Mobile, AL radio FM Talk 106.5, Brooks, a candidate for U.S. Senate in Alabama, proposed granting Canadian truckers protesting the Trudeau government political asylum in the United States.

Brooks applauded the efforts of the so-called Freedom Convoy truckers before making his pitch.

“Well, I am proud of the Canadian truckers and how they are attempting to assert their right to liberty and freedom,” he said. “I believe that you need to push back against government dictatorial efforts as much as possible, and certainly, that is what they are trying to do in Canada. And the science, quite frankly, has proven the Canadian truckers to be right. That’s what’s so baffling — you’ve got these people who made bad decisions, they’re in elected office, both the United States and [Canada]. They made these bad decisions based on incomplete information way back in the spring or late winter of 2020. And for political reasons, they’ve stuck to those positions when the science has refuted the premises for a bunch of the positions that were taken.”

“I would say to the Canadian truckers — we’ve got our supply chain issues here in the United States of America,” Brooks continued. “We could use some more truckers in the United States of America. And I suggest we give or offer them all political asylum. I think that’d be great if they were to leave Canada, come to the United States of America, move our goods from the East Coast to the West Coast and every point in between, and see what Canada then does — as they have, in effect, expelled these truckers by denying them their liberty and freedom.”

Great points.... 

I think we need to do some significant idelological segregation across the board before this whole contingent explodes into a massive civil war.

The Rats are doing the segregation for us.

I don't see this asylum thing going anywhere, I think that's an Executive decision and I cannot imagine President Puddinhead doing it.

The dividing line is as much economic class as ideological. I agree with you that we really should focus on how to separate our selves from the leftists.

We need a wave of new Pubs that are willing to talk about and pursue a peaceful divorce.

Excellent point.
But...
What occurs will need to be something more than merely "ideological"...

Addendum:
Is it time for that new "Heartland Continental Congress" yet...?

DeSantis should simply offer $2,000 bonuses to these brave people to come to Florida.  It needs more truckers like the rest of America.

And, unlike the Afghans Biden permitted to climb onto our evacuation aircraft, these Canadian truckers are already vetted.
