62. Agree. Dems should be raising hell about this.

Imagine if it was the other way around?

This also is an issue that could be the final nail in Trump's reelection hopes, since most people respect and depend upon the USPS and can see this clearly as a direct attemp to suppress the vote. Unlike the Russian/Ukraine stuff (which is complex 'foreign affairs' for many) this is more tangible - Trump is removing mail boxes to slow the mail and steal the election.

Our leadership (I think) believes Trump is bluffing... trying to scare Dems into giving him the Covid relief bill he and the GOP wants.. and that by telling us to pressure our leaders Dems want the public to rise up and have it backfire on him.
