Trump Taps One Of His Top Donors To Lead USPS As POTUS Trashes Agency

President Donald Trump has chosen Louis DeJoy, a GOP fundraiser who has also donated to Trump’s campaign, to be the new United States postmaster general at the United State Postal Service (USPS), an independent agency Trump has repeatedly attacked.

Nice. The Betsy DeVos of the USPS. This should go well. Break the USPS just in time to screw-up mail-in voting.

I wonder if DJT has ever been inside of a Post Office. In his entire life?

I’m already feeling extremely sorry for Biden and his veep, whoever that may be. There’s too many things broken for one man to fix when his senate majority, if he has one, will be slim. I foresee the same old same old. Dem president tries to fix stuff broken by previous Republican president, but lacks sufficient support and is constantly sabotaged by Republican majority. Public gets restless and votes malefactors back in at mid-terms and nothing further gets done. Kicking out Trump alone will not fix the structural problems inherent in our system of governance. My bet is the best we’ll get out of this is replacing RGB, Bryer, or Thomas, should they die or retire with Someone slightly left of center. Maybe that’s enough, but I’m not expecting more than that.

I stated before that I retired from the USPS because of incompetent management, mainly.
I do believe in the need for the USPS as a means to be able to serve almost every address in our Country.
The last thing we need is another Trump idiot in charge of Postal management idiots.

Post of mine from another thread:

["Except for the fact that he would be the most scrutinized public official in United States History…making Sondland look like a suspicious Scoutmaster.

And subject to felony prosecution.

Bezos, who is actively involved in USPS news lately was probably already aware of this before we were"]

Americans have handled bigger challenges before. Team Trump is Evil enough and they are doing enough to discourage us without us helping 'em out.

I am happy that you are envisioning a Biden win. Once Trump is gone, things will change like quite rapidly.

It cannot be overstated what a blight Trump is on America. There has never EVER been a more destructive person in public office in this country.

Yes, that and he’s being installed specifically to oversee the USPS’s demise and privatization. The fellow may not have time, but his Master, Trump, does not intend to lose the election.

This fellow goes into Office with that pasted on his back. That’s a hard row to hoe even for Lex Luthor.

In Operation Torch in WWII, the Allies had to use a French General THEY DID NOT TRUST.

We are talking about COMBAT. With American lives at risk.

The fucker was kept on a TIGHT LEASH.

Let’s just be happy that we all know the deal NOW and not in October for the “first time”.

Trump has a military valet.

I’m concerned that he won’t contract it.

His Uncle was a genius scientist, so he is probably immune.
