Summary
Donald Trump is considering privatizing the US Postal Service due to its financial losses, a move that could disrupt shipping and push hundreds of thousands of federal workers out of government.
Citing the USPS’s financial losses, Trump argued the agency should not rely on government subsidies.
While his specific privatization plans remain unclear, Trump previously clashed with the USPS during his first term, attempting to shift control of key functions like labor relations and rate-setting to the Treasury Department.
This move could significantly alter the structure and operations of the USPS if implemented.
I literally said that. The people in rural areas overwhelmingly voted for this. It’s their will. They don’t like programs that only benefit specific groups like the poor or disabled. Rural is just another group right.
I don’t think all those indigenous villages on islands in Alaska voted for this.
I have read enough of your comments to know that you know the difference between overwhelming and all.
Sure. I do. I don’t know how you could know what the people who live in areas that only the USPS is willing to serve overwhelmingly voted for, but feel free to show me those statistics.
And the ones who don’t? Fuck them?

That is about rural Americans, not Americans who live in areas that only the USPS is willing to serve. There is a massive difference.
I’m a rural American. You have to go down a country road and up a highway for about 10 minutes to get to the nearest town. UPS, FedEx and Amazon all deliver right to my door.
It is time to let them eat their own dog food isn’t it
