Obama on the side of Post Office, vs Trump Against the Post Office.

.....................Who would have predicted this?........Who is going to win?......What do you think?.........


....Our Postal Service is one of the oldest, most essential government services around. It is even mentioned in the Constitution.....But here is the part we all know. We all like to get birthday cards in the mail. True or False?
...Now when I was a young lad, a very long time ago, (like 64 years ago) my relatives would send me a birthday card with $3.00. Yes, three one dollar bills that were worth a lot back then. Now think of a 7 or 8 year old getting a card from a relative wishing ....HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU....and including some money that seemed to be a lot back then....
....But Trump is taking on those memories of getting birthday cards. And the mail was good mail and positive, as are the memories of the people who delivered the mail. Obama, (yes the good guy)..defends the mail, and Trump (a bad guy) attacks the mail..That is enough. What do you think fellow citizens of DU?
