Summary
Donald Trump is considering privatizing the US Postal Service due to its financial losses, a move that could disrupt shipping and push hundreds of thousands of federal workers out of government.
Citing the USPS’s financial losses, Trump argued the agency should not rely on government subsidies.
While his specific privatization plans remain unclear, Trump previously clashed with the USPS during his first term, attempting to shift control of key functions like labor relations and rate-setting to the Treasury Department.
This move could significantly alter the structure and operations of the USPS if implemented.
I don’t think all those indigenous villages on islands in Alaska voted for this.
I have read enough of your comments to know that you know the difference between overwhelming and all.
Sure. I do. I don’t know how you could know what the people who live in areas that only the USPS is willing to serve overwhelmingly voted for, but feel free to show me those statistics.
And the ones who don’t? Fuck them?

That is about rural Americans, not Americans who live in areas that only the USPS is willing to serve. There is a massive difference.
I’m a rural American. You have to go down a country road and up a highway for about 10 minutes to get to the nearest town. UPS, FedEx and Amazon all deliver right to my door.
They are different, but one is a subset of the other.
And yet you have no evidence of how that subset voted.
You mistake evidence with ironclad proof. They are not the same.
No I haven’t. You’ve given neither. The aggregate of rural voters in the entire country says nothing about specific areas. It’s like saying everyone in Texas votes Republican based on overall results when there are large pockets that don’t.
Unless you’re going to maintain that all of those indigenous people in remote places who will be seriously hurt by this because they won’t be able to get basic things like medicine are Republicans. Because that sure seems to be what you’re suggesting.
