Editorial: Attacking the U.S. Postal Service before an election is something a terrorist would do (via latimesopinion)

To hobble the U.S. Postal Service under the guise of “treating it like a business” is to undermine public confidence in yet another vital American institution at exactly the time when confidence is most needed, as much of the nation prepares to vote by mail in the Nov. 3 election. Such an attack would be an obvious strategy of a terrorist group or a foreign adversary. It also appears to be the strategy of the president of the United States.

Of more concern, though, is Trump’s constant harangue against voting by mail, which he says — without evidence — is a hotbed of fraud. Many states plan to conduct their balloting by mail, so election-related material in a timely fashion — or even appearing to do so — gives him ammunition to attack the validity of election results that don’t go his way.

opinion If people can go to Walmart, Costco, 7-11 etc and use pin pads to purchase items they can go into a voting booth to cast their vote. Nobody is scared until it comes to voting? Lies to perpetuate a false narrative. Put all voting booths in Walmart, Home Depot, 7-11, gas stations.

Mail Delays Fuel Concern Trump Is Undercutting Postal System Ahead of VotingWASHINGTON -- Welcome to the next election battleground: the post office.President Donald Trump&39;s yearslong assault on the Postal Service and his increasingly dire warnings about the dangers of voting by mail are colliding as the presidential campaign enters its final months. The result has been USPS is a mess. Yipping about voting by mail hasn’t changed that. They will still sell “insurance,” lose the package, then claim there’s nothing they can do, “next in line.” How much $ has its ineptitude been propped up with in the last 20 years? Has everyone forgotten? joe vp pick Mail delays are because the Post Office has commited to delivering Amazon pkgs before regular mail.
