In Trump's Amerika:
He is busy destroying the United States Post Office, an institution enshrined within our constitution. The vehicle for this demolition is his lackey mega-donor Postmaster DeJoy, who is busy removing sidewalk postal boxes, high-speed mail sorting machines (selling these million-dollar machines for scrap-metal) and prohibiting overtime or trips back to the PO by carriers for more mail.
Is it working? Within this past month, I mailed out a credit card payment on August 17 that was due on September 8. It is still not there, the bank is calling daily for its money and I have been assessed a late charge.
I have a rental unit that is one of the pillars of my retirement stream of money. The tenant who has lived there for ten years has never missed nor been late with a payment.
The rent that was due for September still hadn't showed up by Monday, September 14. I called my tenant and he said he had mailed it out on the first or second as always, which I fully believe. He sent out a second check by expedited mail at an excessive cost, which I told him to take off the rent, which showed up today. The original check is still in a place unknown. Do you think the mail has been slowed to a point approaching disablement?
Voter supression of vote-by-mail during this pandemic? Absolutely.
