Democrats on collision course with Trump and Republicans over Postal Service bailout

[SCantiGOP]

4. Pure bluster

The Democrats should put it in the House bill and state unequivocally that they will not accept any Conference Committee bill that does not contain the funding with no radical conditions attached.
There is no way the Senate is going to let that die and force the Post Office to shut down a month or so before the election. For one thing, as fragile as the economy is, the news that the PO will be shutting down would likely trigger a huge stock market decline, since a significant number of Americans still receive and pay their bills through the mail. And millions of dollars of obnoxious political mailers would have to trashed.
Tell the Republicans that we are OK going into the election with the GOP identified as the group that killed the Postal Service.
Force them to back down.
