on this Post Office debacle.  They created a problem that didn't exist, blamed the man who was put in the job to keep the Post Office from bleeding money.  Now they have him testifying, Democrats are trying to give the Post Office $25B via legislation that Trump says he'll veto.  And they got Senate Republicans voting positively on their bill and breaking away from Trump.  

Our Congress is basically completely dysfunctional.  They can't bring themselves to compromise on the unemployment extention, yet they rush to give money to the Post Office, because they want mail in voting, which the Postmaster General says they can accomodate anyway

The issue is more than mail boxes on the corner. It is harming his base in the rural araea of the country, veterans, and Seniors waiting for delivery of their prescriptions.

"Rural residents are especially dependent on the mail for medication and retail purchases, with private carriers like UPS and FedEx most likely to contract out the last leg of delivery to the post office in sparsely populated areas. More rural residents also are elderly or lack broadband service, making it harder for them to handle bills electronically. The letter carriers traversing country roads often have a personal connection with their customers."

Did you listen to the testimony of the head of the USPS?  Did you actually read what happened with postal boxes, etc. during the Obama years?  Why do you come here and post baseless, stupid conspiracy theories as if anyone will suddenly change their mind about Trump?  You have a mental illness Goofy.....seek help.

Not a word of facts in that quote. Lies made out of whole cloth.  Provide sources for those statements.  Anything you find is totally anecdotal.  USPS analytics don't show any such "problems".
