Maybe he shouldn't have admitted on TV that he was trying to undermine the USPS in advance of the election, then.

He's either a troll, an idiot, or a saboteur. This isn't debatable in the slightest. Which of these explanations do you prefer?

I'm not sure why it has to be one of those. I mean maybe slightly an idiot because what he is saying is likely not good for him politically, but not entirely wrong. You make it sound like the USPS doesn't have any issues.

The USPS is not supposed to be a profitable business, any more than the Army or the State Department or the prison system is. It is a Constitutionally-sanctioned organization, operating under the premise that universal mail delivery is a valid government concern.

To the extent the USPS "has issues," as you put it, it is because Congress has consistently set them up to fail. Congress is free to shut down the USPS or kneecap it if they want, but the executive is not. Certainly not to serve their own corrupt purposes.

Just something else to add to the list of things Republicans would scream bloody murder about if a Democratic president were doing it.
