President Trump has argued in recent days that the U.S. Postal Service has lost a fortune delivering Amazon packages at a discount.
However, some of the agency’s problems might lie with the president. The top planning and oversight board at the Postal Service has been unable to meet and consider matters such as the agency’s long-term relationship with Amazon, because the president has failed to appoint any of the nine governors to the 11-member Board of Governors of the U.S. Postal Service.
In October, Trump nominated three candidates who still await Senate confirmation. The board needs at least four new members to have a quorum for meetings, which prompted concerns from a bipartisan group of senators late last year.
“Without a quorum, the Postal Service cannot make key operational decisions or provide accountability for operational deficiencies, such as intentional mail delays, drug trafficking through the Postal Service’s network, and dramatically falling mail volumes and revenue,” according to a November letter to President Trump from the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.

What does one expect from Mr. Bankruptcy? He lays in bed and is in a hypnotic trance when he watches Fix news. What ever they tell him he believes. His favorite show is Fix and friends.
wonder what Trump would think of that 3rd class sand junk mail that they charge 5 & 6 cents for……..if it were me I would get rid of the Obammy holdover and replace her with my own hire……..this pc cultural Marxist diversity nonsense has run its course….its time to get back to business 101…..and that means put smart people in charge, not warm bodies just to make a check off quota. gee how is this place even still in business?
How them coal jobs coming along?
Chinese Merchants Get an Even Better US Postal Office Deal Than Amazon!
Would it not make sense to everyone but Postal Management, that if you charge all customers the same low rates, that customers would use your service more, thus increasing revenue! The Postal service needs to stop discriminating customers with their discriminating rates. One fair rate should be good enough for all customers!!
That should tell you how important the P.O. is to him and Crongress. They really don’t care as did any other administration. It’s an afterthought and always will be. The only reason he is talking about it and Amazon now is to deflect from other issues with him…… i.e. Stormy Daniels, tariffs, ect. This is what he does. It will all calm down and he will move on to something else.
The only solution to save the USPS is PDIs and write for everything little thing against the letter carrier and there demented mind the revenues will come again. Right spineless Fred Rolando that is the deal you make with management.
USPS bears investigating with harrassment and treating people like crap.
Postal board of governors, management and the spineless NALC are all jokes. Excuses Excuses
