Trump rapes the USPS

Trump didn't appoint Lajoie. The USPS board of directors he appointed did. Keep the facts straight. Otherwise you're just another deranged trump humper. Leave that to corporate America and and the flock that defies logic.
Got to give it to the Republicans, they plan long term.

Turns out Mitch McConnell stopped Obama from being able to appoint the 5 appointees to the post office, which is supposed to be 'bi-partisan' so Obama appointed 3-Democrats and 2-Republicans.

The United States Postal Service Board of Governors is all white men, and Republicans. It was a clean slate for Trump and company because Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders blocked appointments by President Barack Obama for reasons that remain uncertain.

Well, at least that’s what this article in The Hill claimed.

I tweeted out exasperation that we find ourselves in this situation, in part, because of past liberal purity. Well, that elicited a strong reaction from a Sanders staffer:

Remember, the pushback is that Sanders blocked five Republican white men. So I looked up the five nominees, and they were, indeed, three Democrats and two Republicans. Why did Obama nominate two Republicans? Not clear. He probably needed to grease the skids to get the nominees through the Republican-controlled Senate.

The nominees were:

Stephen Crawford, George Washington University (Democratic donor)

James Miller III, Hoover Institute fellow and senior advisor at law firm Husch Blackwell (Republican donor)

David Michael Bennett, formerly an executive with aerospace company BAE Systems, who, by the way, is Black. He has no donor history, but sifting through his history, it tracks that he’s a Democrat.

Mickey Barnett, a lawyer and former New Mexico state senator (Republican donor)

David Shapira, chairman and CEO of supermarket chain Giant Eagle (Democratic donor, though he has donated to hometown Republicans)

So yes, there were three Democrats that could’ve been on the committee on nine-year terms, but aren’t because of Sanders’ hold on the nominations. Could that have stopped what’s happening now? Maybe not, but it sure would’ve been nice to have some eyes and ears on the inside, as Trump’s allies on the board plotted to dismantle the service.
I see this above blog as a elaborate troll to create division between progressives in order to try to get them to not vote, but it had some good info in it.

Fucking Republicans, which STILL at this point of Trump's Presidency after all/despite his miserable actions/failures, over 90% support his policies
What does that tell you?
You know what it tells me?
They're rabid & no longer have control of they're actions.


Get the analogy?

What it tells me is they would rather have a republican they hate than a dem they hate. Conservatives don’t like trump but they voted for him over a dem.

Sounds to me like liberals don’t think they can win an election where voter ID is checked.

Just stop it with the gaslighting. You know damn well that voter ID is all about keeping legitimate votes from being cast. Trump and his Republican party used that ploy up and it doesn't work any more.

why are you trying to rag on ol' joey b?

you called him irrelevant months ago

i would detail the hundreds of secret meetings with russians that the trump campaign had with russia but you would just reply with an "ok, whatever buck" again and that's just become so boring to own you like that. i would rather own you by talking about this fictitious jewish wife that you claim to be married to

It is obvious to me that this election is already over. Has been since you nominated a senile man as your nominee. No crying on election night please. If you feel otherwise, bet your account. Winner of the electoral college remains, loser leaves.
 
Quit fucking crying. On here every damn day whining about trump this and trump that. Trump ain’t the fucking problem.

well said, trump was a response from the right to all of this crazy woke culture going around. also anyone who thinks mail in voting for everyone is a good idea has brain issues... yes some people need mail in voting which trump isnt going to get rid of. but weve seen in multiple elections what mail in voting does. there was a huge incident in 2016 in california
 
also his defunding doesnt matter because the post said they have enough money already to run until august of next year, you could take all their money away and nothing would change until august 2021

For all the Postal Justice Warriors here:
lol, get a grip.
Real clear politics is a propaganda website that supports the right wing agenda. Anything that comes from that site is suspect.

Just stop with the gaslighting, Nazi, it's no more effective than a limp dick. Except to pee through. Trump's favorite.

You guys can't own up to your own mistakes. Trump has been a disaster. Just own it, and vote for Biden in the fall. Then we can talk about how much SNAP money you'll get.
