Nutty ‘Bikers For Trump’ Founder Runs for Congress
Read Time:54 Second
The South Carolina loser who founded Bikers for Trump to block protesters at Trump campaign rallies now plans a campaign of his own. Chris Cox says he plans to run against Charleston Democrat Joe Cunningham for a US House seat, the State reports.
Cunningham defeated Katie Arrington in the 2018 election after she beat incumbent Mark Sanford in the GOP primary. In a Facebook post, Cox said he was “disappointed in the election of a liberal Democrat to represent me and my neighbors in Congress.”
He said he was “passing the torch” of Bikers for Trump, which provided an extra layer of security at Trump events, to his top lieutenant. Cox, who will be competing against at least four other Republicans in the primary, says his association with Trump will give him an advantage, the Post and Courier reports.

Why is it that everytime I research these Trump supporters, I find that they are dishonest and misleading. Chris Cox, founder of Bikers for Trump, stated he never would take donations and instead set up a Go Fund Me Account that he used to buy himself a bike. Trump has been using Funds from donations to his campaign to pay outlandish bills from Maralago, his own country club. Additionally, Chris Cox supports Roy Moore, a disgraced politician from Alabama. History shows that economically since 1921, US citizens benefit more from Democratic administrations than Republican. If you care, research it yourself!
Cox is NOT a “biker” in any sense of the word. For that matter, he didn’t even OWN a bike until late September/October of, I believe, 2016. And THAT was purchased with the funds from that gofundme account that people donated THOUSANDS to thing, foolishly, that it was somehow going to the Trump campaign. There’s that, and then there’s the FACT that when anyone questioned where the money was going that question was met with threats, blocking from their web site, and a barrage of text messages after that. SOME people caught on to his scam early on. ONE of which was the Rapid City Journal that did an article early on that, basically, outed him. Too bad that folks didn’t pay attention back then.
Then there is the one post he made that said he would NEVER ask for donations and that the Bikers for Trump wold be operated through patch and shirt sales…..
And, YES, I can, and often do, back up what I have said here with facts.
Here’s the link to the Rapid City article…..

Wow. That’s interesting. Thanks so much for this, as it certainly adds perspective.
This is the antithesis of everything bikers are about. The old skool bikers would never kneel to establishment or any government official, especially not one that has no concept at all of the code. Honor. Loyalty. Respect.
The one in the white house has none of these things. Chris cox is a traitor to the code any every actual biker who lives by it. Just looking for money and notoriety, selling out becoming a havk and a joke. Not a biker.
I rode a bike for many years, and little more for more than a year with the PD. I never road with any of the groups mainly because I hated the Harley’s. However, competing for a parking spot on the University of Alabama campus, anything other than a car or truck was the wisest choice. I was named chairman of the parking and safety committee twice at Alabama. The most frustrating job ever. In the early eighties there were more that 16,000 students and only 7500 parking spaces. Almost always it a clusterf**K
Odd thing about some bikers. I used to ride on occasion with a local group, most of whom are aging doctors and dentists and lawyers and accountants but I got tired of the pamphlets and screeds and I just don’t any more.
Maybe I’ll go back to Triumphs
Always wanted a bike but realized I would probably kill myself so I never got one.
