Meaning- you just lost the argument.... But do keep on defending this loser..

There IS no argument, only someone with a pea sized brain would think it’s smart to subsidize the delivery of junk mail.
Earth to Larry...we’re in the 21st century.

As usual, worthless discussing things with MAGAs. I'm waiting for Trump's replacement for Obamacare too.

As usual, let’s subsidize Aunt Edna’s $4 birthday card postage even though she only has to pay for a 50 cent stamp.
While we’re at it let’s pick up the tab for FedEx, UPS, and DHL too.

Got it. You hate the post office. Next time send her that card for $10 bucks FedEx Express. Or just send her an email. Oh, she doesn't have Internet? Too bad, so sad granny. FYI, there's folks living on the Navajo reservation that's supported by the Indian mission I donate to who don't have running water, much less Internet access. Nah, they don't need mail, probably can't even read.

You’re not too far off track, I send my aunt in Colorado a birthday card every year.
I don’t trust the Post Office, so I put it in a bubble envelope and send it via UPS.
It costs me $6 and some change, but guess what?...It always gets delivered.

Here's an interesting bit.

1 year later & still crickets later... https://ips-dc.org/how-congress-manufactured-a-postal-crisis-and-how-to-fix-it/
btw, quit taking your carrier's nickels.. The price of a Stamp went up to 55 cents months ago.. ?

With a mindset like this, we would still have the pony express, quills & inkwells, and horse and buggies.
Subsidized deliveries of junk mail and other nonsense is nothing more than wasted taxpayer money.
The only time I mail a letter is when I pay my property taxes, only because the local governments haven’t evolved in the 21st century.
Then you're missing the point. The post office has evolved. There can be efficiencies- but this isn't the time to implement them. LOL, I'll talk to you about wasted taxpayer money after we cut a few hundred billion out of the defense budget. We spend more than the next 9 countries on military expenditures- combined....

And of course since we already knew 95% of that the only thing some people need to do is to spin it so they can attack the president. If Mike Pence John McCain or Barack Obama were president you'd probably agree with the fact did the post office really needs overhauled. But it's so much more fun to cry about voter suppression isn't it?
Anyway as for the people who lived in the Sticks well, shit happens. You know how hard it is to find a good blacksmith these days? Inefficient paper correspondence is being taken over by Leaps and Bounds by Electronic media. Sorry, that's just the way it goes. So if you live a hundred miles from nowhere that's going to be one of the pains in the ass you'll have to live with. Maybe once or twice a week Drive 25 or 50 miles to a central location and pick up your junk mail there.
Also a lot of money as Wasted by putting the post office FedEx UPS you name it in high traffic areas. No need for that. Delivery locations are actually destinations. So what would be a lot cheaper put it somewhere else. Meaning. In the shopping center with the most expensive rental rates imaginable. My friend at the post office is also talking about clusters of boxes and every neighborhood. Like you would see it at apartment building but in the suburbs. That would cut down on a lot of time and effort.
But like with so many other things that are completely or mostly or even partially government-funded there's no particular urgency to do anything more efficiently.
And who knows? It might be a good thing for America to have to spend at least a little bit of time to get their mail. Or a little bit of effort? As it is we sit in front of the big screen all day long and wait for Amazon to bring us our shit. We would scream bloody murder if we had to get in the car and drive 1/2 Mile to pick up the mail.

Business models and innovation become irrelevant, when you always have taxpayers shore up the bottom line.

It's not spin. It's obvious. Trump said it out loud. His goal is apparent, and that's to make it harder to vote.
It's spin to try and make it something else

The Post Office is outdated...we don’t need a government official to tell us that.

While they should definitely look to be efficient and improve, the USPS also isn't a normal business. It's a service provided to Americans
Another way to look at it, how much money does the military "lose" every year? You want to address wasteful government spending then start with the big dogs

Not saying it isn't.
But doing all of this now, right before an election, where many people are going to want to vote by mail, after he's gone on and on about "voter fraud" through mail...
... I mean come on. It's obvious.
Through in all of the right wing "news" outlets pumping out as many "vote by mail bad!" stories as they can each day and it should be blindingly obvious what's going on.
There's no way you could think this is a genuine attempt by Trump to just want to improve the USPS or something

You’re right, my daily mail consists of 99% junk mail. We need taxpayers to help pay for that delivery.

I find the military spending a necessary evil these days. There’s plenty of people in the world that would love to create another 9-11.

And there are people that get medications through the mail. Sounds necessary as well.
