Especially anybody like that sneaky bastard DeJoy! WHY hasn't he been ousted yet? How soon can our Dems take care of THAT job?

Seems to me his behavior strongly indicates he's trying to cripple the Postal Service as we now know it. What, if anything, he thinks we should replace it with - is beyond me!
