Mr. DeJoy is ridiculous. The lines in the US Post Office are already long. The mail is already slowed. He is not putting forward a better post office, he is disabling the USA Mail. The only redeeming aspect to his ideas is to end the punitive pension program started under the Bush White House. The only reason that is in the proposal is that it is the only palatable part. It is called politics.

While the entire government is going to need clean fuel vehicles, LaJoy's idea is not a good one. If there is to be a revamping of vehicles to clean electric transportation throughout the US Government, it will take place over a period of time, and that will have to come in legislation from Congress. LaJoy is not qualified to make those decisions. It is the tail wagging the dog. 

Since LaJoy seems to think the pension burden is too great for the Post Office that should be a stand-alone bill that even the Republicans can support.

We need an experienced Post Master General and a supportive Board of Governors to begin to untangle the mess Trump created.
