Before I forget, there is a movement forming to protest this Saturday at 11:00 AM. If you missed the chance to join arms in peaceful protest over the last two months, here is another opportunity to amplify democracy and justice.

Trump walking to Marine One in one those off the cuff interviews:

Said the Post Office has been horribly operated.  Reporter asked him if people should feel worry about getting their meds through the mail.  Instantly said Post Office was operating great.

Reporter then asked about mail in ballots.  He said it was horrible but absentees were very secure.

Lulz.

Goddamn are you serious? That sounds extreme even for his stupid ass.

Have you taken a few months off from paying attention?  That sounds like right down the fairway of how I'd expect him to answer.  No hook, no slice, no sand trap.

Why not? It's not like there's ever any repercussions. Motherfucker has said some of the dumbest things any elected official has ever said in history and still has a stunning amount of support.

[Mrs Whiggins 13,050]

Don't you know? You only take him literally when he is speaking literally. Fox News will tell you when that is. Easy peasy.

$10 says that fat piece of shit is going to spend time in Florida during their early voting week meaning that he could have voted in person.

Pasken, Pasken.... you just don't get it do you. Mail in voting is the worst thing to ever happen to this country and will lead to a rigged 2020 election. Unless you're in Florida. There it's super awesome.

Remove the fully funded pension requirement and you can save billions and keep service levels as is instead of reducing service levels to save less.  Dummy.  

[Aqua Buddha 14,806]

Lulz at this whole thing.  They really stepped on their own dicks.  They didn't realize how much product the post office moves and how many people depend on it.  Despite being a punchline to the point it was a plot on Seinfeld, the USPS is relative reliable, cheap, and well liked.

[softlynow 1,894]

Fortunately for DOTUS the next distraction is about to hit, since his executive order on the matter only tells others to "consider" the issue.

Dirty libs will be wailing about a few million newly homeless. Sad.

USPS has something like 91% approval I think I saw posted on here? It's going to be a race to see if the WH can beat the mental midgets who suddenly realize that when it says "free shipping" it doesn't mean you don't pay for it.

If you support the GOP and Trump you are a traitor to your country.

Everything else is details.

This seems like the most reasonable and best option. Take the fully funded pension handcuff off the USPS and they will be just fine, I'd assume. If the pension fails, it fails. If not, awesome.

The postal service has been failing for decades. So we're going to reduce their capacity to sort mail and make them fail even further. And people wondered why his businesses all go bankrupt.

Ben just tweeted this gif and I keep thinking how if I tampered with a mailbox and found guilty of mailbox vandalism, I could get fined up to $250,000 and up to three years in a federal prison for each willful act.

Its the standard Republican MO even though Trump is like the steroid version of it.

1) Yell X government agency is shitty! (Even though X government agency is mostly fine, but inefficient or underfunded)

2) Get power and make X government agency as shitty as possible.

3) Yell, see I told you it was shitty!  I was right, look how shitty it is!  Lets give its funding to the DoD instead so it can buy a few more thousand dollar hammers with no oversight.

Won't last. 38 to 46 percent of the country will favor its complete abolition by the end of the week.

These people's devotion to Trump knows no bounds.

When your chief strategist calls for the deconstruction of the administrative state - you sort of waive your right to moan about the lousy state of administration.  amirite?
