Sadly the msm will spin it as necessary, and due to climate chang,e and the millions of low info viewers will gobble it down as gospel truth- thinking biden is the greatest president ever- even while they pay through the nose or everything, while happily obeying his every command and demand and mandagte
Of course.
Democrats screw up everything they get their hands on.
When the government cannot even run the Post office or DMV, why should we expect them to do any better with any other function or government?
The waiting container ships need to have ‘Let’s go Brandon!’ Flags/banners.

Florida ports always operate 24-7.
Re-route your ships to Florida. We can handle all of them!

How come lefties can sue any and all levels of government, but no else seems to? California is wrecking the country.
Bidenomics is hitting both sides of the Pacific. While I won’t shed any tears for the PRC having a hard time shipping garbage to the US, you’ll pardon me for feeling a little bad for my neighbors in SE Asia, such as Thailand. Last I read was that they were short about 1.5 million empty containers because of holdups in the US.
Obviously this impacts us over here, but it will impact you as well. You have the obvious agricultural exports (chances are your jasmine rice comes from Thailand as well as your coconut water, coconut milk, and coconut cream). If your computer uses a Seagate drive, it probably was built here (and very possibly your Western Digital drive as well). Samsung, Asus, and a number of other manufacturers have their assembly plants here. And a whole host of other items, from medical supplies to heavy machinery, are built here. That little shipping container shortfall will mean that your parts can’t even be loaded, much less stuck in the Port of Long Beach.
Let’s Go Brandon!

How about a one year waiver on the trucking industry to get as many haulers working the backlog.
I wonder what Jimmy Carter would do
When you go to war with a people you place an embargo on them. And that’s exactly what this is. Figured this out yet?
I’ve never worked around shipping containers. I’m familiar with yard management of 52 foot trailers.
We have identifiable locations in our yards. When we need to drop a trailer, our Yard Management software directs the switcher to drop the trailer at a specific spot. When it’s time to retrieve that trailer, it directs him to get trailer XZ from location 123.
It sounds like they are now placing these shipping containers on unmarked spots in areas not designed for storage. So they don’t have a way to easily locate a designated container. It’s possible they might have RFID tags to help.
Are these things larger than a trailer? They look like they are. Do they have yard equipment to stack them, and how high can the equipment stack them?
I’m assuming they cannot unload a container that is stacked atop other containers. So when they do find it, they will have to redo the stack and haul the container to a loading dock so they can transfer the merchandise to a trailer.
What are the ships going to do? I wouldn’t think they would go back overseas empty. But there aren’t empty containers to give them. And it seems they would be running out of shipping containers at the origin points overseas.
How are they feeding the crew that’s stuck out there waiting to unload?
I’m looking for feedback from anyone familiar with working with these things.
It is Global Warming fault!
As a matter of fact, this really is caused by the Global warming alarmists. Get ready for more.
Globalism and the failed policy of off shoring industry are on display every day! May it get worse and worse.
WE DESERVE THIS.
