Trump will never find an AG who will not incur his immediate wrath when he doesn’t make all of his problems go away on Day 1. Even if the AG comes into the job genuinely wanting to help Trump get away with all of his crimes he won’t be allowed the time required to be able to do it because Trump is an inpatient baby. It’s part of the reason why no one seems able to touch Mueller.

The constitution says: quote:The Congress shall have Power...To establish Post Offices and post Roads Basically, dealing with post offices is explicitly a job for congress which means messing with them requires a bill to be passed and signed into law by the president

It’s a good thing that the Postal Service is so throughly ingrained within the original Constitutional framework because otherwise conservatives would have killed it a hundred years ago. I mean they’re still trying their best to.

Jesus. Just watching the news, I realize that Trump's 'I will take responsibility' thing was ten days ago. I thought it was two days ago. But time and space have no loving meaning in Trump's America anymore.

BarbarianElephant posted:Hard-coding that into the constitution was .... maybe not their best idea. The original text of the constitution pretty clearly pictured a federal government that mostly handled things that were best if they were unified nationwide and left the rest to the states. This was accomplished by explicitly listing the things the federal government should handle. So you get big stuff like the military next to smaller stuff like the post office because if it wasn't on the list then it was state purview. This isn't really how the government works 250 years later but it explains why the president has to sign every post office rename.

The post office is one of those government institutions that's been under a constant barrage of "the government is slow and bad and dumb and stupid and should be defunded!" propaganda pretty much as long as I can remember and yet I've had more bad experiences with private postal carriers than I ever have with the USPS. For that matter I've never had a bad experience dealing with the IRS or DMV either. It's almost as if the Republican party wants to demonize various federal services in an effort to gut them.

Does anyone else feel a bit relieved after seeing that Trump's grand idea in his head for the Border "Wall" is the most loving stupid thing imaginable and will now finally die? Like, you can just slide through his grand master planned "Wall," or climb over it with a blanket and some rope. Lmao he is so proud of that idea he tweeted it out
