NEW: an organizer of one of the #TruckersForFreedom convoys says the plan is not to park in DC, but to shut down the Beltway.

Bob Bolus says he plans to leave PA on Wed & circle DC: “I’ll give you an analogy of that of a giant boa constrictor.” @fox5dc MORE: Bob Bolus is staunchly pro Trump & when I asked why he’s coming to DC w/ plans to shut down Beltway, he had a list of complaints. I found his info on FB page where convoy organizers are sharing their routes/plans. There are a bunch of different groups & organizers.
