What the heck is going on with the USPS?

Post by Highway Star »

Somehow this now the major media red hot crisis. Clearly mail in voting is a contentious issue, but does anybody actually believe a few cutbacks at the post office are going to prevent people from having mail service?

They've been trying to reform the post office for years, that means cutbacks and raising prices.

I know you're trolling, but many of the changes at USPS were instituted before COVID. In that sense, every move by USPS is not a strategy to disrupt the election. However, Trump has essentially admitted he's deploy a strategy with the USPS to disrupt the election hence, an investigation is warranted.

Show me some PROOF Trump said he is actively trying to disable the USPS to stop mail in voting. Sounds ridiculous.

I think I've figured it out.

https://www.businessinsider.com/usps-ju ... ice-2020-8

There must be some massive fraud planned with the mail in ballots if the dems are so worked up about this.

Plus they can push the Trump is obstructing voting narritive

Plus amazon depending on cheap last mile delivery from USPS and not wanting to lose it.

Mail in balloting is not going to be allowed to happen. If people can go to the liquor store, grocery store, walmart and home depot, PLUS RIOTING AND LOOTING, they can vote in person. Otherwise request a proper absentee ballot.

And what happened in terms of the breakdown and talks on the stimulus. Tell me about that because that’s another thing that they were complaining about you yesterday, saying well he’s not there negotiating. We want to get something done.

Now they need that money in order to have the post office work so it can take all of these millions and millions of ballots. Now, in the meantime, they aren’t getting there. By the way, those are just two items. But if they don’t get those two items, that means you can’t have universal mail-in voting because they’re not equipped to have it.

Donald Trump

00:11:03 - 00:11:26 (23 sec)

And you see how bad it’s been with this Carolyn Maloney scam, she scammed her way into an election. She probably lost, but they said mail-in ballots, it’s all mixed up. Patterson, New Jersey, same thing. Yesterday Virginia, 500,000 applications for ballots, got sent to everybody, nobody even knows.

So, if you didn’t have it -- do you know how much money that is? Nobody has any idea, you know people, oh, $3.5 billion.

You know, there's nothing wrong with getting out and voting, you get out and vote.

If you look at California, we found over a million votes in Los Angeles, over a million. Judicial watched it, they were fantastic job they did, Tom Fitton and that group. They did a fantastic job. Found over a million votes where people were over 100 years old and they were voting. They had people, I think, 124-years-old.

I don't recall mail in voting ever being controversial before Trump decided it was susceptible to fraud (without any real evidence). But you know, all his followers just adopt what he says and run with it.

Ah the retart is back!

Absentee voting by mail is fine. Not the same thing.

Standard vote by mail isn't a thing.

What's the difference between voting by mail versus absentee voting? In Pennsylvania, it's exactly the same thing.
