MSNBC host Tiffany Cross this weekend attacked white truckers as aggressive, dangerous drivers who overwhelmingly voted for Trump.
Cross said there’s a lot of racism in the trucking industry because it’s mainly white men over the age of 55.
“This 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.”
Cross said there would be less racism and better drivers if more blacks worked in the trucking industry.
“So, obviously, the more populated it is with people of color, I think you’ll see less of that,” Cross said.

I’m wondering if there aren’t too many reporters “of color” in the fake news industry. We’ve never heard such racist, ignorant stereotyping of people that reporters “of color” don’t actually know and of whom they can’t share any of their personal experiences. Just sayin’…
Yes, blue collar people with jobs, the ones who who actually keep the world running, voted for Trump. No one is keeping a person of color from getting their CDL. The ignorance is baffling.
So what is stopping the blacks from becoming truck drivers nothing outside of they might not want to do that kind of job.
Also you do know that most of the ones that cutting people off are the ones in cars. I have seen cars switching lanes so close to Truck Drivers that they can and have caused accidence on the roads.
Nothing is stopping them. If I can get one, they can. Test is pretty simple if you know what you’re doing. I do agree about the car thing, I see that all the time too and well, they will stop it once they get all that horsepower rear ending them. i was raised by a trucker, manners go a long, long way with them boys. I still flash my headlights to let them know it is safe to come back into the lane.
As a truckers daughter, one the dumbest thing I’ve heard today, other than Pete’s “Racist Roads”. Knowing the trucking world as intimately as I do (literally growing up with the experiences) there is no racism involved. The only racist ones are the fake reporters, injecting their racism into their news story. There are 16 Chinese owned MSM outlets. Let that sink in, I found that out when I was a real news journalist and my boss wanted me to lie for a certain president that started this racial division, I told my boss to ‘eff off, grabbed my personal belongings and flipped him off on my way out. If there is no integrity in news journalism, there is no real news, it’s fake…
For sure, those trucks aren’t being driven by panty waists like you
