Yo, Republicans!

In the past week, your “pResident” has cost you the votes/support of many of the following:

People who rely on the timely delivery of their SS cheques.

People who are paying late fees for bills they paid on-time, that were not delivered on time due to slowing down the mail – and people whose credit rating has been negatively affected by that circumstance.

People who depend on the mail to deliver their medications, especially veterans.

People whose businesses rely on the USPS for the prompt delivery of goods, invoices, and business-related correspondence.

People who stay connected to their relatives, friends, communities, and their places of worship via regular mail.

People in hospitals, elder-care facilities, and end-of-life hospices whose only connection with loved ones – due to the Covid restrictions – is a card or letter from a family member or an old friend.

But take heart, my Republican friends! Your ‘pResident” could say/do something even worse tomorrow!

You might want to prepare some talking-points for the next political catastrophe – which is, at this point, inevitable.

Aside from republican't politicians, I'm aware of no one who fumes about the existence of the USPS.

his family and friends can effectively mop up as people seek faster means of shipping.

Sabotage.

cards and packages they receive that help them feel closer to home and loved ones. It's the feel, the smell, the taste. Although, there's the internet, it's no where near the same.
