Trump Reacts To Claims He’s Sabotaging The USPS

President Trump on Monday dismissed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s accusation that he was trying to “sabotage” the 2020 election by “manipulating” the U.S. Postal Service (USPS), claiming the USPS has “run horribly” for years and “we’re going to make it good.”

In an exclusive interview on Fox & Friends on Monday, Trump pointed out that the post office lost $78 billion over a “very short” period of time and he’s trying to improve operations ahead of the election.

“I’m just making it good,” Trump said. “We have a very, very good business guy running it, and … I want to make the post office great again.”

If Dems are so concerned about mailboxes, why didn’t they condemn the burning down of Post Offices by BLM terrorists?

In Minneapolis alone, 3 Post Offices were burned to the ground during the “peaceful protests.”

Maxine Waters says Trump is “The Most Deplorable Human Being That I Have Ever Encountered In My Life”-——
wants Section 4—Twenty-fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution invoked to oust him.


Twenty-fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution ...
Section 4: Vice Presidential–Cabinet declaration

Section 4 is the only part of the Amendment that has never been used.

It allows other executive officials to declare the President unable to do his job.

The Vice President must agree to do this.

The USPS Just Filed A Patent For A Blockchain-Based Secure-Voting System

The U.S Patent and Trademark Office presented the USPS’ official patent application, dubbed the “Secure Voting System,” which leverages blockchain technology to securitize the voting process and transmit the incoming ballots more efficiently and quickly.

Trump complained about the patent brought forward by USPS by saying that with a blockchain-leveraged voting system, there would be no confirmation and way to verify whether the voter inscribed on the ballot was actually the one casting the vote. Also, he said that after the ballot was sent, there would be no way to know whether the ballot was tampered with.

NANCY PELOSI IS COLLUDING WITH A FEDERAL AGENCY AND A UNION TO INTERFERE IN THE ELECTION

As soon as the USPS postal union endorsed Biden, Pelosi didnt waste a minute. She recalled the House to convene for a vote on a USPS bill.

These postal types are salivating....Nancy’s buying their votes w/ some $25 billion tax dollars.

She is also the cowboy spurring the mail-in voting debacle.

She’s harrasing Postmaster General Louis DeJoy to testify about mailboxes being removed across the nation.
Mailbox removal is a common occurrence.

Democrats fear that Donald Trump is trying to slow down the USPS.

They claim that sabotaging the USPS will reduce voter turnout.

Trump claims mail-in voting is a threat to the integrity of the election.


Pelosi call House Democrats back to vote on giving Postal Service a $25 billion boost

FR POSTED-——In a letter sent to her House colleagues Sunday afternoon, San Fran Nan thought it would be a terrific idea to compound her lies alleging President Trump is somehow “defunding” and “dismantling” the U.S. Postal Service by refusing to pour an extra $27 billion down that particular rathole by adding the age-old Democrat hustle of scaring the old folks about Social Security.

Her letter, which is posted as a press release on her website, reads as follows:

“The Postal Service is a pillar of our democracy, enshrined in the Constitution and essential for providing critical services: delivering prescriptions, Social Security benefits, paychecks, tax returns and absentee ballots to millions of Americans, including in our most remote communities.”

“Alarmingly, across the nation, we see the devastating effects of the President’s campaign to sabotage the election by manipulating the Postal Service to disenfranchise voters,” claims Pelosi. “These delays also threaten the health and economic security of the American people by delaying delivery of life-saving medicines and payments.”

In response to Pelosi’s despicably dishonest diatribe, the Social Security Administration issued a statement today noting that checks to recipients last were delivered via the U.S. mail in 2013.

Pelosi is far, far from the only communist Democrat lying to the old folks about this matter. Here is a tweet issued by America’s Worst Mistake, Barack Hussein Obama His Own Self, on Friday:

Let’s also note who was President in 2013, when the SSA stopped mailing checks to Social Security recipients: That would be Barack Hussein Obama His Own Self.

That would be the very same Barack Hussein Obama His Own Self who told a fellow communist Democrat last week that he should “Never underestimate the ability of Joe Biden to f*ck things up,” according to the far left rag Politico.

I think Trump is baiting the idiot dems again. They will clamor for blockchain voting.

By the time they realize what's happened, it will be too late.

Flip the narrative. Leftist RATS are only good at accusations without any basis in fact. Accuse, accuse, accuse... This is their modus operandi, has been since Lincoln. Call them on it and don’t reply to a false premise.

Not sure this is how they can cheat in every state but in at least one this is a way.

They also vandalize anything associated with government, thus the boxes.

And where were they when obama’s USPS removed 12,000 boxes between 2011 and 2016?

partly relevant article here, states that for instance in Washington, more people used dropboxes for ballots than mail boxes. “Washington state has nearly 450 election dropboxes, which more voters relied on than the U.S. mail in the August primary.” Not sure what it is for other states?

There’s also a short video showing a high-speed mail sorting machine that looks, just from the buttons, about 90 million years old. So maybe not so ‘high speed’ as the name implies. These machines are being removed, likely to replace with newer models. And they’re doing it at a time when business mail is way down and so time-effective to do it now.

I never had major issues with USPS delivery until I became a Trump donor.

You know what I’d like to see: How many reported complaints, requests for help with delivery issues have been lodged by people who have donated to Trump...
