“I think it’s bad they won’t let us in. We can do the same thing they can, so they should let us in. These trucks are imported. Do they seem bad to you? They make four times what we make, so they want to keep the border closed. They only drive eight hours; we drive 24 hours a day, with only about four hours of sleep. The United States is the 100 percent beneficiary of all the cargo we transport. What is the problem with our trucks and drivers?”
