Sunday on CNN, former Vice President Al Gore accused President Donald Trump of “putting his knee on the neck of American democracy” with his appointee Postmaster General Louis DeJoy’s overhaul of the U.S. Postal Service.
Gore said, “On the postal service if I could say what I wanted to say about that, think he’s kind of panicked that the announcement of Kamala Harris went off — it was 10 out of 10. It was amazing. And he went to that stupid, ridiculous false birther thing right away and had to take it back. And post office, this is an act of desperation, in pandemic, voters of all ages with preexisting conditions worried they can’t breathe safely standing in line to work. In effect, by tampering with the post office, he’s putting his knee on the neck of American democracy and trying to make it impossible for people to vote by mail. And they may react the way they did in Wisconsin when the governor there tried to do a similar thing, and it made people mad. I think this Democratic ticket is going to be showcased this week in a spectacular way.”

The herd is now being told that the USPS is somehow vital to our democracy. The herd obeys and bleats as instructed.
When rural post offices were being closed left and right around a decade or so ago weren’t the Rats boohooing then?
Just another dumb excuse to blame on Trump.
oh isn’t that just super cute- co-opting a man’s death, a death he caused himself via overdose most likely- in order to undermine Trump- gee- how original there gore-
No, his wife cut his ass loose and hopefully “relieved” him of some of his ill gotten loot.
the crazed sex poodle speaks!
LOL! Sucks when you can’t remember your own BS!
Another meeting of the Sore Presidential Losers Club is called to order. Algore, WillardRomney, OvertheHillary attending. John McPain couldn’t be there today.
So... Trump does his Business Executive thing... Puts someone in charge of the USPS to clean things up and get them running without BILLIONS spent in waste, fraud, and abuse...
... and that is somehow dismantling our voting system?
I can only shake my head at the stupidity of it... But part of me knows that their Idiot Base will eat it up with a spoon. Taylor NotSo Swift is a perfect example of a bobble-head parrot...
He should have said, “Trump is messing with the lower chakra of America.”
Hummm... Al Gore...Al Gore...Didn’t he used to be somebody?
I wish he'd get back into his lockbox.
“This is weird. What’s trump doing to the USPS? This is off my radar.”
Trump can’t do anything to the postal service. It’s run by a “board of governors.” Presidents don’t have anything to do with it.
This is all just democrat propaganda. Apparently, the post office got rid of some under-utilized mailboxes (fewer than 20-something pieces/day) along the routes of city carriers nation-wide. The democrats are spinning a conspiracy theory out of it.
To paraphrase Charlton Heston, you’ll take my junk mail out of my cold dead hand
You really have to give their planning department credit...
No president has appointed a postmaster general since 1971. Presidents appoint peeps to fill vacancies on the board of governors, and the Senate confirms them, but Presidents have no other say about what they do. The controversy is entirely manufactured.
“BTW, dip shit/we have 8 years left until the planet is dead, we are a republic not a democracy.”
“Now kill the beast while he’s wounded..... Flawless....
No........
Trump is Riddick in this movie.....
