45:26Now Playing'Blatant Attack': Trump Attempts To Sabotage USPS & Election As Mailboxes Vanish Across America
YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWith under 80 days left before the 2020 election, Donald Trump doubled down on his war on the U.S. Postal Service, which has already been struggling to meet the increase in needs during the pandemic.
The nation's saboteur-in-chief said on Fox that he plans to starve the USPS of $25 billion in funding that Democrats pitched as part of coronavirus relief negotiations.
This unprecedented move has the potential to devastate voting in November which is exactly what Trump and his minions want.
One day after his confession, photos of mailboxes being removed in cities across the country have gone viral on social media. Residents of Portland and Eugene, Oregon learned that at least 31 mailboxes have been taken off the streets. The same thing happened in New York City, and several cities in Montana.
Cliff Albright, Co-founder of Black Voters Matter spoke with Roland Martin on Friday about the "blatant attack" on the USPS and what it means for this year's election as well as how Trump's attempt to sabotage the Post Office will have far reaching effects on Americans across the country.
