    “Welp, my work here is done.” wipes palms and walks away

    He did as much damage as he could while Trump was out of office and is now ready to hand over the reigns to someone worse.

      Nah, he knows the postal service can now just be shut down, Constitution be damned. He did his job and burned down his competition.

      What next president? You really believe there will be any?

      But with that in mind:

      Next dem president should.take pages from 2025. Just do whatever the frack you want to do. Fire ALL and everyone that was hired during Trump’s admin, start from scratch.

      They’ll have to rewrite all software as well as Elmo’s grubby fingers have tainted all the current systems

      Which is interesting because Biden had the majority seats on the postal board last year. He could have removed DeJoy and appointed his own ten year postmaster. But no.

        This is what I fully expect. It is a sad state of affairs that I have to ask, “Are you serious this is what’s happening or is this your prediction?”
