Saw this quote and I think it sums up so much of what is going on right now with our leadership and our country:
"When “politicians attack a judicial system, attack a voting system, attack a free press, these things threaten the foundation upon which not only our own democracy rests but democracies around the world rest."

Were you thinking of Democrats, and, Obama when you quoted Romney?
The Post Office says they need $25 billion to make it work....
....Congress does the spending and is controlled by democrats
why doesn't Congress/democrats pass a bill and give them the money?
..and no where is Trump "restricting voting rights"
*The post office never said they need $25B to make mail-in voting work. The Post Office has told "46 states and DC" - "Hey, we can't guarantee we can meet the deadlines you have in your state."
*The Dems have requested (and presumably in their "bill") $3B for mail-in voting.
*There are 160MM registered voters. $3B = $18.75 per ballot.
*The individual states determine their voting systems. Five states right now do primarily "vote by mail". All states have some "absentee ballot" system.
*Since the states handle their own voting systems, it is up to THEM to change their system.
but you do know that Amazon was granted "back door" access to their package tracking. Do you know if Fedex and UPS have this same privilege?
Postal management does not take special effort to track and move forward Surepost or Smartpost we are specifically ordered to stop the most efficient order on travel on routes and deviate to insure Amazon branded pieces are delivered by 8 PM and those who distribute the parcels are specifically told to work pallets from Amazon first.
Back before the do not wait orders no matter how late the truck from Amazon came they were distributed for delivery that day. The distribution clerks stayed on penalty overtime to prepare them and then carriers were recalled back to the station to pick them up reload and be forced into overtime to deliver them.
I have lost track of the amount of times when I finished at near 10 hours for the day and there was a last piece from Amazon and if I was first back on that particular day then I was mandated and forced out at an average $40, at my pay rate run, to deliver that last piece. that never happened for any piece of Priority Mail, without the Amazon swoosh on the box, Surepost or Smartpost piece.

These are the facts.
"Five states", can handle it, the Dems feel the rest should punt and hope for the best?
Removal plans for the iconic blue metal drop boxes were revealed in leaked Postal Service communications. The plan coincides with several changes by new Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, who is a major campaign donor of President Donald Trump’s and state Republican parties.
By Friday night, Montana’s congressional delegation was swarming around the drop box issue, a week earlier Sens. Tester and Steve Daines, a Republican, and GOP Rep. Greg Gianforte were cautioning DeJoy to stop making Postal Service changes that harmed Montana delivery.
Montana Gov. Steve Bullock, the Democratic challenger to Daines in the fall general election, also joined in.
USPS announcing that it had stopped removing Montana mailboxes was the first confirmation DeJoy was responding the concerns by Montana’s delegation and congressional Democrats.
Dirty, dirty, dirty politics. Trump should be ashamed- but he has no feelings other than self aggrandizement.

Yep, the most corrupt president in history. He orchestrated the ballot mess, a violation of his worn oath, and now he has to live with his loss in November when the sanity returns and he's ousted.
