it would take weeks and months to get all the ships through the Panama canal or around the Cape to get up to the east coast... sometimes, mis-information is necessary - Q
Even if he could get the goods imported through Florida, it would have to travel by rail across the US to the west coast. There is not enough rail capacity to handle the additional load, nor can the cost of transporting by rail make it economical anymore.
They have to unload where they were destined to unload, if they are going to unload at all. If they can't unload there, they might as well dump it in the ocean.
I have thought it might be a jab in the optics war. Even if it is a white hat op, this whole crisis is already being blamed on Biden regardless, so why not play for a few more points?
Come to think of it, it would look even worse for Biden if they are made to look like they refused to re-route the ships to Florida.
It would definitely increase the cost, The Asian trade route would have to go through the Panama Canal. I remember reading an article that it wasn’t just LA but also Europe ports that are backlogged. UK pedes?
Not from UK, but my Mom follows European news closely and just mentioned to me the other day that there's backlogged ports in Europe and fake shortages.
My local LandRover dealership in England is overflowing with stock and yet along with Mercedes they are suggesting a chip shortage is causing delays of a YEAR.
If U.K. built goods such as Mini and LandRover are in short supply in the US this could be an easy knock on effect to follow from the EO.
It would let the goods that AREN'T blocked by the EO through and alleviate the traffic from the boats that aren't from interfering countries through.
Then, we can identify which boats need to have their cargo Boston Tea Party 2ed off into the ocean (including any missiles people keep worrying about).
Consider, it’s the Asian trade route. They would have to go through the Panama Canal to get to FL. The cost and time for the captain and cre plus the docs that would need to be obtained. Cheaper to let them sit.
That's what I was gonna ask. Last I check Florida was still part of the US and it sounds like they are ramping up for more traffic from China, not slowing down.
I agree that the main premise of this post is an illogical assumption that doesn't make sense. If this were true there is no way DeSantis would be opening Florida ports. In fact there is plenty of evidence presented in the past few days that proves the ports are being purposely shut down to create a crisis. Xiden doesn't follow any laws or executive orders issued by Trump. Come on man. Even suggesting an executive order issued by Trump is stopping cargo ships from unloading is absurd. In fact I would venture to say if the ships were blocked from unloading they wouldn't be anchored offshore but be returning back to home port.
There is more to it than that. My cousin is in logistics. His biggest client gets their medical products from Poland. That’s across the pond. They’ve been supplementing (China) and don’t have product to ship to the US.
How does this fit in with DeSantis opening Florida's ports to ease the backlog?

Desantis is essentially shitposting, amirght?
Yes.

I learn a lot in dis place. Thank you.
patriots setting up DeSantis to inherit our beloveds mantle in the future. #elijahElisha #TrumpDeSantis
Should’ve read further... I just repeated your comment!

China isn’t going that way!
I too would like an answer to this question. Is DeSantis putting up a ruse?

Maybe it's about decentralization. Getting things ready to move most of the business away from Cali.
