Claiming that Donald Trump is throttling the US Post Office to suppress mail-in votes Congress has voted $25 billion for the post office.

$25 billion. Let’s assume that there are 250 million voters in the USA who want to vote by mail. (It’s probably way less than that.)
That’s $100 per voter.
For that they could let everyone vote by FedEx for free.

Why is the post office losing money? One word. EMAIL.
Even those bank statements and utility bills are now coming by email.

Not some vast conspiracy but the result of progress that’s affected every country in the world.
And all those people screaming that they support the Post Office should try writing some letters and sticking real stamps on them. THAT would help the post office.
