(NewsNation) — A group of truckers, supporters of former President Donald Trump, are boycotting deliveries to New York City following the $355 million fine levied against him in a fraud case, according to a report by the New York Post.

The move, initiated by trucker Chicago Ray, gained traction after he posted a video on social media declaring that some truckers are refusing to transport goods to the city. In the video, Ray stated that numerous drivers he had spoken to were planning to halt deliveries to protest the ruling issued in Manhattan Supreme Court last Friday.

“I’ve been on the radio talking to drivers for about the past hour and I’ve talked to about ten drivers… and they’re going to start refusing loads to New York City starting on Monday,” Ray said in the video posted on X.

Ray claimed that he had already communicated with colleagues who informed their bosses they would not be driving to The Big Apple. He emphasized widespread support among truckers for the boycott, stating, “Do you know how f—king hard it is to get into New York City with one of these motherf—ckers?”

Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron ordered Trump to pay $355 million for inflating his net worth over a decade to secure favorable loans. Additionally, Trump is prohibited from holding officer or director positions in New York companies for three years, the judge ruled.

Trump denounced the case as “election interference” and warned of further repercussions for New York City.
