Democrat Rep. Ruben Gallego was slammed on Twitter he called for seizing the trucks of protesters headed to Washington, D.C., and then handing the property over to businesses looking to grow.

The Daily Wire reports:

“Perfect time to impound and give the trucks to small trucking companies looking to expand their business,” Gallego tweeted in response to the following news headline: “Trucker convoy could shut down DC Beltway tomorrow.”

“Law enforcement agencies in Maryland, Virginia and D.C. are monitoring what could be a number of trucker convoys coming to D.C.,” the report said. “Truckers apparently spurred on by the recent protests in Canada want their voices heard, but the extent of the protests and how disruptive they may be is still unclear.”

Of course, it wasn’t long before the Twitter sharks went into a feeding frenzy over Rep. Gallego’s ridiculous and illegal offer.

Popular conservative radio host Dana Loesch replied, “Also known as theft.”

Conservative commentator Kurt Schlichter said, “Siding with foreign dictators.”
