The White House is pushing for a congressional compromise on U.S. Postal Service funding and stimulus checks for individuals as House Democrats decry President Trump's threat to withhold funding for USPS and link it to the administration's opposition to universal mail-in voting.
TRUMP SAYS HE'S WILLING TO GIVE USPS MONEY IF DEMS CONCEDE TO 'SOME' FUNDING ASKS IN CORONAVIRUS RELIEF PACKAGE
"If my Democrat friends are all upset about this, come back to Washington, D.C.," White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows told CNN's "State of the Union." "Let's go ahead and get a stimulus check out to Americans. Let's make sure that small businesses are protected with an extended [Payroll Protection] Program and put the postal funding in there. We'll pass it tomorrow. The president will sign it."
Mail-in voting in 2020 is still going to be a slow-motion white-hot train-wreck. Expect huge numbers of disqualified ballots and massive cheating on both sides before, during and after the election.

There goes the Democrats' and other anti-Trumpers' whacko conspiracy theory that Trump is trying to hurt the USPS prior to the 2020 presidential election....
What will his political foes whine about next? So little time, so much faux outrage.

It is almost as if planning should have started much earlier at all levels.
Blackmail?(LOL)
The fact remains that the planning did not start much earlier, but the left doesn't care. They plan to move forward with universal mail-in voting anyway.
It's almost as if Democrats are already looking for reasons to not accept the 2020 election results should they lose.
Since when is a compromise between the legislative and executive called blackmail?

So "Give me what I want or I'll rig the election in my favor"?
Seriously?
So if businesses are freed from any liability and get their federal handouts then mail in voting will suddenly not be fraudulent?
You do hear what you're saying, right?

The federal and state governments should have known that a much greater need for mail-in voting may be necessary for the election all the way back in March and if that planning actually started neither side would have any issues. It is not like the election is an unforseen event. Elections Canada already started planning for a Fall election with a far greater need for mail-in voting that might not even happen a while ago. Why can't the US do it?
Was funding for the post office part of the stimulus bill or is it a whole different deal?
Funding for the US Postal Service: The bill contains $25 billion in funding for the US Postal Service. The coronavirus pandemic has exacerbated long-standing problems at the USPS, which is saddled with debt in part because of the modern ways Americans communicate. The agency doesn’t typically rely on taxpayer money, but Democrats and some Republicans have been looking at a way to bolster the postal service, which is incredibly popular with the American public. But the White House has resisted past efforts to prop up the program with federal funding.
The House passed their $3 trillion second stimulus bill 13 weeks ago.
What has Moscow Mitch been doing all this time? Oh yeah, he called a recess and left Washington last week.
The House passed their $3 trillion
The $3 trillion stimulus the House passed in May included $25 billion for the Post Office.
The bill contains $25 billion in funding for the US Postal Service
Oh yes, the 3 TRILLION $ one
Yeah the dims were just throwing something at the wall to see if it sticks(Rolling eyes)
You certainly didn't mind the 2017 GOP giving trillions in tax breaks to the wealthy.
2 weeks ago Pelosi and Schumer said they would meet the GOP in the middle -- $2 trillion in new stimulus funds.

Agree, but that won't be the fault of the president as the anti-Trump resistors/Democratic Party will have us believe. They're just shooting the usual crap and hoping it sticks.
