Members Suckrates Posted December 29, 2017 Members Posted December 29, 2017 And tweets up a storm.... Donald J. TrumpVerified account @realDonaldTrump FollowFollow @realDonaldTrump More Why is the United States Post Office, which is losing many billions of dollars a year, while charging Amazon and others so little to deliver their packages, making Amazon richer and the Post Office dumber and poorer? Should be charging MUCH MORE! 5:04 AM - 29 Dec 2017 What the fuck is wrong with this Asshole ? Doesnt he realize that many of the Dumber and Poorer that work there are HIS supporters? This should give them a wake-up call ? Quote
Members MsGuy Posted December 30, 2017 Members Posted December 30, 2017 It's got nothing to do with the post office. Jeff Bezos (owns Amazon) bought The Washington Post a couple of years ago. WaPo has been running a particularly nasty and persistent slander campaign against POTUS. Just Trump's way of letting off a little steam. Makes him feel manly, I guess. Quote
Members RA1 Posted December 31, 2017 Members Posted December 31, 2017 Does anyone really think that government workers generally are supporters of Trump? While the USPS is no longer a part of the Federal government, it still is a monopoly that can tap tax money. It also puzzles me that FEDEX and UPS can deliver cheaper than the USPS. (Not really, just adding fuel to the fire.) Best regards, RA1 Quote
Members MsGuy Posted December 31, 2017 Members Posted December 31, 2017 RA1,do you really think that the Donald is aware that the USPS is no longer a government department? "What. really?" "When did that happen?" Quote
Members RA1 Posted December 31, 2017 Members Posted December 31, 2017 I am almost completely unaware of what The Donald is aware. Considering I was very afraid of Hilarious I am very much less than satisfied with DT. Best regards, RA1 AdamSmith 1 Quote

Members RA1 Posted December 31, 2017 Members Posted December 31, 2017 You cannot actually leave the Congress critters out of the USPS equation. They have to vote to agree to increase the postage rates. The Congress pays what is called a foregone profit which subsidizes various forms of mail to include foreign voters, blind folks, Congress critters themselves, etc. Although these "programs" are not a direct tap on tax money, for me they are close enough. As you know, government spending has to first be sucked from us, the taxpayers. Best regards, RA1 Quote
