Postal agencies are rarely attention-getting issues in political races, but 2020 is a year like no other: The U.S. Postal Service is a lead item in the presidential election coverage.

President Trump charged the Democrats with holding up the coronavirus stimulus bill by demanding aid for the U.S. Postal Service.

“The items are the post office and the $3.5 billion for mail-in voting,” Trump told Fox Business News’ Maria Bartiromo. “If we don’t make the deal, that means can’t have the money, that means they can’t have universal mail-in voting. It just can’t happen.”

He opposes widespread voting-by-mail, saying it would lead to widespread corruption and fraud in this election. However, he plans to vote by mail in Florida, now his official residence.

There are charges that new Postmaster General Louis DeJoy [left], President Trump’s pick, is hobbling the USPS’ capability to deliver mail-in ballots.

This is a fast-developing story, so we’re going to do something they tell you never to do as a website host: Go to your favorite news website and read the latest there. We can’t keep up. We shouldn’t keep up: This is a stamp collecting news site, not a mainstream news or opinion site.
