What is the origin of the idiom "have no truck with someone or something" and when to use it?

The idiom "have no truck with someone or something" has its roots in the word "truck," which once referred to bartering or trade, particularly among merchants and traders in the 17th century.

This expression is used when an individual wants no involvement, association, or dealings with a particular person or thing, often due to disapproval or a desire to distance oneself.
