"Trump reportedly said he would reject a bailout package if it included aid to keep the US Postal Service functioning"
At first, I was like "Why the fuck does Trump now hate the Postal Service so much?"
But then, I realized... if the Postal Service dies, that would make mail-in voting impossible, which would increase his chances of being reelected, and he full well knows this, as he has openly admitted it. He claims it's due to voter fraud, but it's really due to the fact that more people would be able to vote more easily, and more people voting means that less people would be voting for Republicans, because Republicans are demonstrably vile, and most (sane) people are aware of this objective fact.
And if they can't win fairly (which they obviously can't), they'll cheat their asses off (which they obviously already have, or else Trump wouldn't have been President to begin with), in this case by doing everything they can to kill the Postal Service, so that people can't mail-in vote, which, as was the case in Wisconsin recently, means that many wouldn't be able to vote at all, especially now in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic.
