Trump Is Getting Dragged For His Epically Hypocritical All-Caps Tweet About Saving The Post Office

After an all-out assault on the United States Postal Service, having hundreds of mail-sorting machines and mailboxes removed with the intent to make mail-in-voting more difficult in the middle of a global pandemic, Trump decided to tweet something completely opposite of his intentions.

The USPS has warned 46 states and Washington, D.C. that it may not be able to deliver all mail-in ballots on time to be counted for the 2020 general election, including the presidential election and the Senate/House elections.


Users weren't readily fooled by Trump's tweet.





Most hypocritical of all, perhaps, is the fact that Trump himself votes by mail. The USPS may not even be able to correctly handle his vote.

Trump balked at the idea of additional funds for the USPS. Post Master General Louis DeJoy, a major Trump donor, has now been subpoenaed by Congress to answer for the actions he ordered under Trump's direction.

 He is due to testify next week.





For the next 90 days, collection box removal has been suspended.

But this is not before disturbing photos of piles of collection boxes being locked and piled up on trucks to be removed circled the internet.





The Postmaster General has since come out to say, according to The Hill:

"To avoid even the appearance of any impact on election mail, I am suspending these initiatives until after the election is concluded."

However, damage has already been done.

Far-right provocateur Ann Coulter is facing fierce criticism after she made a genocidal remark in a now-deleted post on X in response to University of Minnesota professor and Navajo Nation member Melanie Yazzie's speech about colonization.

Yazzie, in a speech at last year's annual Socialism Conference, said "decolonization is the only thing that is going to save us as a species" during a panel hosted by Red Nation, a Native American nonprofit that advocates for Palestinian and Native American rights. She also said that the United States is the "greatest predator empire that has ever existed" and said it should be dismantled.
