Truckers are dispelling Donald Trump supporters amid their efforts to boycott New York following the former president’s civil fraud penalty stating it’s “not happening.”

Judge Arthur Engoron on Friday ruled that Trump must pay $355 million in penalties in the civil fraud case brought against him by New York Attorney General Letitia James. The suit accused Trump and others of fraudulently inflating his net worth and the value of his assets to secure more favorable business loans, which Engoron found him liable for last year. Trump has also been barred from serving as an officer or director for any business in New York state for the next three years. Trump has maintained his innocence throughout the proceedings.

Since the ruling, a number of pro-Trump social media users began urging truckers to boycott New York City by refusing to accept routes into it and potentially disrupting its economy.

However, the call for a boycott has made its way across social media over the weekend, sparking other truckers across the U.S. to weigh in on the issue dispelling the reason why truckers may not want to go to New York.
