Instead they send Billions and Billions of taxpayers Dollars overseas to fund someone else wars !!! This is not how America should be, this is a National Disgrace and it must stop !!! We have to take America Back before we can make america great again !!!!
Truckers' lives have become much worse since the Neo-Cons deregulated the industry and allowed them to be treated like indentured servants. Why are so many millions of people so dreadfully ignorant?
It always amazes me how in the US people think the president is responsible for price gouging and inflation. The prices in the grocery store would have gone up even under trump, probably even more so with the tariffs he wants to add.
Covid was an opportunity for big business to gouge prices worldwide citing supply chain problems. Here in New Zealand cost of living is out of control. I suppose voters in the US have to decide between hate and retribution vs an attempt to bring the country back to actual politics instead of this. The border is a red herring. The US is a country built on immigration. Remember the immigrants are doing jobs Americans don't want to do. Los Angeles would shut down if all the "illegals" were deported.
You would think that Truck Drivers more than anyone would realize the economy is cyclical, the President doesn’t in themselves control the economy and the reason for the tough economy was Covid.
Exactly. We put A LOT of weight on who is president and actively ignore local elections that affect your life much more directly. I think the media does a great job of stirring the pot and reminding everybody that presidential elections are the end-all-be-all.
Exactly, they do not care about families at all. Musk cannot build robots fast enough to take the maga cult jobs. They were both laughing at sacking people who wanted a more decent pay. Trump has evaded tax by undervaluing his properties and stiffed ordinary workers, contractors who worked for him, he screwed ripped off students at his so called university. Wake up, get rid and move on.
They listen to Rush Limbaugh for 1000s of miles. I know I did. Then one day sb I-5 near Corning,CA I reached over in my 1981 Cabin Over Fruitliner and turned that Shithouse Lawyer off for good. Hateful BS was all it ever was.

You legitimately couldn’t be any more dense if you think Kamala and the Democrats care about anyone but mega corporations and Wall Street. Trump is for the people. He’s the only one that listens to the average citizen. Anywhere he’s invited he will show up and talk. Unlike Joe or Kamala who will not show up unless it’s a friendly atmosphere. They can’t handle tough questions. The Muslim mayor of Michigan was just at Trumps rally saying Trump was the only one who would listen to him when he reached out to the two candidates. You must stop watching your biased liberal media. It’s all propaganda. I used to watch it too, I didn’t realize how much I was being lied to until I branched out and started listening to both ends of the political spectrum. Working class Americans support Trump. We’re sick and tired of Dems. Time for change.

Truck drivers is a huge group that is forgotten all over the world. We just go with the flow and just keep on moving on..... Like a cowboy ride away in the sunset........
People not speaking English cause trucking accidents? Doesn't appear to be an issue throughout Europe, where truck drivers cross the continent, speaking hundreds of different languages without issue.
US (and Canada) didnt ratify Convention on Road Signs and Signals in 1968, nor previous agreements eg. from 1910. Means they go for written instructions on their signs. For example: SPEED LIMIT 60 Or: LANE ENDS MERGE LEFT instead of no-brainer pictograms
I see it everyday. These non English speaking drivers depend on their GPS that's in their language and we all know how a gps can mess up. They'll even tell you on their interpreter app that they're lost..lol
I see it daily out here. Guys can't read signs, guys can't understand directions they're given. See a lot of confused foreigners tearing things up because they have no idea where they are or what they're doing. And when you try and help them out, they stare at you like you just landed from another planet!
Great film. It's a fascinating insight into the views of the people who move America! On an unrelated note, 4:27: My Guy is wearing an Oldsmobile Diesel shirt. What a deep cut!
"I get paid to see The World"... No.. you see America!! This comment summed up the problem Americans haven't even begun to understand they're going through. There's a whole world out here... and they're not immune from it! Questions about the economy, migration,imports and exports, climate change, natural resources - are not the total responsibility of whoever is in charge of America, even the president has to work in a global community. Holding one man solely responsible for world currents is just infantile. The stunning lack of understanding of how politics and the world works is terrifying when they are about to vote in one of the most important elections in living memory. And not even beginning to comprehend that maybe they should be better informed 😬
..........Americans haven't even begun to understand they're going through....... REALLY !!!! PLEASE post ANOTHER COUNTRY that AMERICAN people are getting into for FREE .... and that COUNTRY gives them the things the USA DOES !!!! please post HERE for all to see THAT !!!!

LuciThomas I just commented on exactly the same thing. It's astounding to me that soooo many Americans seem to think that they are the only country on planet earth, and that they are the ONLY ones suffering high inflation, massively high food and fuel prices etc. 😮💨😮💨
You need to educate the people. It’s sad how poorly informed these people are. Do some research about who Trump is and what he stands for………it’s not you.
So many satisfying moments captured in this powerful documentary. I hope people appreciate all the beauty of this great nation. How much is at stake and how much we have to lose. Go vote with love in your heart.
As a pretty liberal guy, pure democrat to the bone, great film. I highly value hearing other peoples opinions. They are right, they are the backbone of this country. Are they right about policies? No, but they worry about their lives and there is no shame in that. I wish we spent more time having meaningful conversations.
Have seen a lot of republicans (maga) going ape about channel 4's reporting, but these insights about how working americans feel about the election are interesting and give perspective.
Greetings from the NYC…..Great report…thank you… we need more connection to our fellow Americans in the Heartland…. Thank you for your service, we appreciate you guys…..
Great film, and it's great to see real Americans' opinions, and it just shows that it doesn't matter if you're red and blue. Everyone just wants everyone to get along and love each other. just like here in the UK tbh, i'm neither red nor blue tbh, because politicians just want to divide us, watch us fight, and get all the rewards. I hope whoever gets into office, that its the people who win.
Do you live because of money, or because you have a heart!? When u stop letting wealth dictate your life, your heart will make the right choice!! Love&blessings
What I would like to know is what did Trump do to lower prices... They can never give me an answer on that... at least one that doesn't go in circles. or a weave as Trump puts it.
@@1jzMKIII it has absolutely nothing to do with Trump. Pre-Covid the ENTIRE WORLD had much cheaper prices, and it was much cheaper to live. Also it was several years ago, when everything would have been cheaper anyway! Plus post-Covid the cost of living for EVERYONE AROUND THE WORLD has gone up massively! Kamala Harris also pointed out that the stimulus checks that were given out by the government during Covid, (again, across the world, by various governments) actually had Trump's signature printed on them! That was a sly move!!! So in MAGA's mind, he was personally giving them money! 🙄
Most of these so called drivers dont even have a cb . Cant read a map or signs feet up on the dash . Automatic drivers glorified car drivers .homeless people in trucks im sick of this industry 36 years and man its change for the worst. Not fun anymore
@@citizen1l Before each presidents policies can have any effect, it would take at least 18-24 months. Yeah trumps economy was good because he inheritted a good econmy as well. Then he blew it with covid response and gave biden a shitty economy, the economy now is better then it was in 2021.
thanks for a well made film. All these guys should know that more than half the living economic noble prize winners have joined in a warning about Trump's policies. And just a screenshot of the Dow's history. Because they are obviously simply not aware of the facts.
Yeah, me too. I gave it a chance, but only got ⅔ of the way through. Their complete ignorance about WHY there is high inflation, high cost of living, high cost of fuel etc just beggars belief! I'm sick and tired of explaining it all to dozens of people online, who think the whole world revolves around Democrats and/or Republicans in America!. 😮💨😮💨
So, aside from the results of price gouging and corporate greed, how is the economy so negatively effecting truckers as a group, as people seem to be claiming?
Freight is SLOW. There's not much moving out there right now. Not like it was. The trucks only make money when they're hauling freight, and if there's no freight to haul, they're not making money. I watched the economy chug along under Trump and into probably 2021 or so. Been very slow since then, dead slow this year.
As an Australian I think the candidate who doesn’t want to deport millions of people or speak about being “a dictator for a day” deserves to win. There are far too many warning signs with Trump, and the US needs to ensure he never gets power again.
I feel like a lot of people who vote for Trump are expecting prices to return to 2019 his first day in office. It's not and when his voters get angry, he's going to blame Joe for the next 4 years.
I don't understand how the government can stop a greedy corporation from jackin up the prices of groceries and stuff we need to take care of our families?
I find it funny, I am not even a minute into this topic. I see the major reason I hate to use the squeegee’s at trucks stops. The guy that thinks : let me “ CLEAN” the dirt & grease off my truck!!!
This was a beautiful film, kudos to whoever made it. I thoroughly enjoyed it

Truck drivers is a huge group that is forgotten all over the world. We just go with the flow and just keep on moving on.....
Like a cowboy ride away in the sunset........
People not speaking English cause trucking accidents? Doesn't appear to be an issue throughout Europe, where truck drivers cross the continent, speaking hundreds of different languages without issue.
US (and Canada) didnt ratify Convention on Road Signs and Signals in 1968, nor previous agreements eg. from 1910.
Means they go for written instructions on their signs.
For example:
SPEED
LIMIT
60
Or:
LANE
ENDS
MERGE
LEFT
instead of no-brainer pictograms
They drive rates down for American truckers. They must go home. Pete butijidge commanded English requirements not be enforced.
I see it everyday. These non English speaking drivers depend on their GPS that's in their language and we all know how a gps can mess up. They'll even tell you on their interpreter app that they're lost..lol
I see it daily out here. Guys can't read signs, guys can't understand directions they're given. See a lot of confused foreigners tearing things up because they have no idea where they are or what they're doing. And when you try and help them out, they stare at you like you just landed from another planet!
Great film. It's a fascinating insight into the views of the people who move America!
On an unrelated note, 4:27: My Guy is wearing an Oldsmobile Diesel shirt. What a deep cut!
Trump's tariffs will really destroy these truck drivers' livelihoods.
And his NLRB
We can only hope.
As a truck driver myself, these are literally the only truck drivers that I know that are voting for Harris.
What about his tariffs in his first term?

Really enjoyed the film, great work making this.
Brilliant reporting as ever ch4 news
"I get paid to see The World"... No.. you see America!! This comment summed up the problem Americans haven't even begun to understand they're going through. There's a whole world out here... and they're not immune from it! Questions about the economy, migration,imports and exports, climate change, natural resources - are not the total responsibility of whoever is in charge of America, even the president has to work in a global community. Holding one man solely responsible for world currents is just infantile. The stunning lack of understanding of how politics and the world works is terrifying when they are about to vote in one of the most important elections in living memory. And not even beginning to comprehend that maybe they should be better informed 😬
..........Americans haven't even begun to understand they're going through....... REALLY !!!! PLEASE post ANOTHER COUNTRY that AMERICAN people are getting into for FREE .... and that COUNTRY gives them the things the USA DOES !!!! please post HERE for all to see THAT !!!!
@@Camshaft-fu9xn You can move to Russia and see how trump’s buddy will treat ya.
Maybe learn how many other countries take in far more immigrants successfully.

@@Camshaft-fu9xnYou’re exactly who he’s talking about.
LuciThomas I just commented on exactly the same thing. It's astounding to me that soooo many Americans seem to think that they are the only country on planet earth, and that they are the ONLY ones suffering high inflation, massively high food and fuel prices etc. 😮💨😮💨
You need to educate the people. It’s sad how poorly informed these people are. Do some research about who Trump is and what he stands for………it’s not you.
So many satisfying moments captured in this powerful documentary. I hope people appreciate all the beauty of this great nation. How much is at stake and how much we have to lose. Go vote with love in your heart.
This feels like an independent documentary
Thank you so much. You guys were so professional and super sweet
Trains don’t pull up to the grocery store love that line
Pure magic ❤️Go Truckers moving the world ❤️
America is truly one of a kind.
Well that was depressing. Clueless people.
Well done video
This is some great journalism, well done
heartwarming ,there are still good caring people out there .
As a pretty liberal guy, pure democrat to the bone, great film. I highly value hearing other peoples opinions. They are right, they are the backbone of this country. Are they right about policies? No, but they worry about their lives and there is no shame in that. I wish we spent more time having meaningful conversations.
Great piece of journalism
Let me guess... They love Trump??
So many falsehoods and misunderstandings from those shown in this video.
pure ignorance was shown in this video .
Name them.
I’m not even a republican I’m MAGA…….😂😂😂😂
YEP that’s a well informed person
Me too
LOL, MAGA is not well informed...they stay in their own echo chamber.
This is surreal to see a documentary about a location that is a significant part of my life growing up as a teenager is eastern Iowa.
Have seen a lot of republicans (maga) going ape about channel 4's reporting, but these insights about how working americans feel about the election are interesting and give perspective.
As a truck driver myself, these are literally the only truck drivers that I know that are voting for Harris.
Greetings from the NYC…..Great report…thank you… we need more connection to our fellow Americans in the Heartland…. Thank you for your service, we appreciate you guys…..
You all can scratch me on your ballot. I'm running next election for the Free America party.....
Thank you drivers
Your hard work will always turn our country around!
hahaha mind boggling that they are trusting a con artist😄😄😄
Great film, and it's great to see real Americans' opinions, and it just shows that it doesn't matter if you're red and blue. Everyone just wants everyone to get along and love each other. just like here in the UK tbh, i'm neither red nor blue tbh, because politicians just want to divide us, watch us fight, and get all the rewards. I hope whoever gets into office, that its the people who win.
Best video you ever made!!!
In 10 years, even trucking will be locked out as a job for the poorly educated.
Do you live because of money, or because you have a heart!? When u stop letting wealth dictate your life, your heart will make the right choice!!
Love&blessings
I would like to understand what Biden did that makes these truckers worse off
What I would like to know is what did Trump do to lower prices... They can never give me an answer on that... at least one that doesn't go in circles. or a weave as Trump puts it.
@@1jzMKIII it has absolutely nothing to do with Trump. Pre-Covid the ENTIRE WORLD had much cheaper prices, and it was much cheaper to live. Also it was several years ago, when everything would have been cheaper anyway! Plus post-Covid the cost of living for EVERYONE AROUND THE WORLD has gone up massively!
Kamala Harris also pointed out that the stimulus checks that were given out by the government during Covid, (again, across the world, by various governments) actually had Trump's signature printed on them! That was a sly move!!! So in MAGA's mind, he was personally giving them money! 🙄
Trump would not be allowed to immigrate here, or possibly even allowed to visit, as a convicted felon. But people will vote for him?
He’s also not allowed to enter most countries as a felon. How can he be the president if he can’t even visit other leaders? 🗳️🔵🇺🇸
Good video, make more of these.
Can drivers please stop washing your trucks with the windshield squeegees please and thank you
Nicely filmed..🎥😇
Well done
Most of these so called drivers dont even have a cb . Cant read a map or signs feet up on the dash . Automatic drivers glorified car drivers .homeless people in trucks im sick of this industry 36 years and man its change for the worst. Not fun anymore
We need truckers, , welders, doctors, dentists, builders, plumbers, farmers, manufacturers, etc, etc, we all suffer in this economy.
This is real Americana. Graet stuff.
As a truck driver myself, these are literally the only truck drivers that I know that are voting for Harris.

@@jwC-zk3vd Despite impeachment; bankruptcy and paying-off a porn star what makes you vote for Trump?
@@tdtm82and about a million other things!!
These people have got to stop thanking trump for Obamas economy, and blaming Biden for trumps.
The economy during a presidents term bellongs to them simple
Just like the border, Democrats destroy everything they touch.
@@citizen1l Evidently not.
@@citizen1l Before each presidents policies can have any effect, it would take at least 18-24 months. Yeah trumps economy was good because he inheritted a good econmy as well. Then he blew it with covid response and gave biden a shitty economy, the economy now is better then it was in 2021.
@@citizen1lthats not having how the economy works
VERY NICELY DONE! THANK YOU!!!
So sad that many of these people don’t understand how inflation works and the fact it will get worse with Trump’s tariffs riddled economy!
Look, letting the PRC into the WTO in December 2001 is seen by many after 20+ years as a mistake. Where is the perspective?
Inflation will get worse under Harris
Thanks for posting
Great video!
Ive been trucking since 87,, id vote trump twice if i could 🇺🇸
It's literally the third time he has run. If you've already voted for him twice, you're good. Stay home.
I would watch a whole series of this, top level documentary
Vote blue to save America
In Springfield they're eating dogs, they're eating the cats.
thanks for a well made film. All these guys should know that more than half the living economic noble prize winners have joined in a warning about Trump's policies. And just a screenshot of the Dow's history. Because they are obviously simply not aware of the facts.
The statement the lady made , “everybody is struggling” is so right!
its a very hard life but a good life and i do it every day and do it for my family and as well as others.
There eating the pets...After birth abortions.... 🤣😂🤣 You don't have to fact check those statements. You just have to use common sense.
they eat the stray pets , the pigeons and the squirrels i've seen em
What a beautiful video, so impressed👏🏾

Great film. Particularly liked the cinematography
Well done, very accurate. Showing a certain percentage of Americans.
...that's why I moved to Mexico,
I just know watching this is going to depress me....
EDIT: Yep, I was right.
Only people voting for Democrats are trans and illegal migrants
It was painful to watch
Yeah, me too.
I gave it a chance, but only got ⅔ of the way through. Their complete ignorance about WHY there is high inflation, high cost of living, high cost of fuel etc just beggars belief! I'm sick and tired of explaining it all to dozens of people online, who think the whole world revolves around Democrats and/or Republicans in America!. 😮💨😮💨
So, aside from the results of price gouging and corporate greed, how is the economy so negatively effecting truckers as a group, as people seem to be claiming?
As a truck driver myself, these are literally the only truck drivers that I know that are voting for Harris.
@ funny… I thought that they were all voting for Trump.
Freight is SLOW. There's not much moving out there right now. Not like it was. The trucks only make money when they're hauling freight, and if there's no freight to haul, they're not making money. I watched the economy chug along under Trump and into probably 2021 or so. Been very slow since then, dead slow this year.
if your a teamster your welcome dems saved your pension
Real people.. No politician anywhere is currently worthy of our vote. And I’m a Brit. Good luck folks, we all need it now
As an Australian I think the candidate who doesn’t want to deport millions of people or speak about being “a dictator for a day” deserves to win. There are far too many warning signs with Trump, and the US needs to ensure he never gets power again.
Never heard so much sense at a truck stop !
Well done!
Vote for neither party, the new party is the Free America party!!!!
God bless america!😊
I feel like a lot of people who vote for Trump are expecting prices to return to 2019 his first day in office. It's not and when his voters get angry, he's going to blame Joe for the next 4 years.
Well done to the filmmakers. Awesome footage, great characters and excellent storytelling. Bravo 👏.
People say the same thing for transit operator you sit all day…..Driving Truck 🛻 or 🚎 Bus Driver is hard on the body……
This is Awesome 🇺🇸❤️
Well done film.
2:26 - Snowden finally made it back as an incognito trucker?

No wonder ppl think truckers are dumb…
What a great part of America
I don't understand how the government can stop a greedy corporation from jackin up the prices of groceries and stuff we need to take care of our families?
I find it funny, I am not even a minute into this topic. I see the major reason I hate to use the squeegee’s at trucks stops.
The guy that thinks : let me “ CLEAN” the dirt & grease off my truck!!!
