MODERATORS
At this point, it's not really about maximizing profits, it's about trying to undo every change Biden made
Its even worse. The new truck was likely by Dejoy, Trump's own appointee.
What do you mean?
Trump appointed DeJoy in 2020 to the position as Postmaster General.
OK. I am still having trouble parsing
What does that mean?
Trump chose Dejoy to lead the Post Office. Dejoy is head of the Post Office. The Post Office chose this new EV truck. Therefore the new EV truck is a product of Trump's choice. Now Trump is trying to kill his (by proxy) chosen EV truck.
Ah gotcha. I don't think Dejoy is a green advocate or anything. Congress gave the postal service 3B dollars to invest in electric vehicles, and that's what they started doing. They are cheaper if you amortize costs over a decade.
Absolutely. And Trump put the man in charge, and is now saying he's doing wrong.
Trump's is Putin's puppet. He's set to destroy whatever he can.
The way he talked about Putin making Obama look dumb... he thinks that when you act like an asshole and tear down what someone built that it makes the other person look bad.
That's cause he's a bully. He's only ever brought people down to bring himself up. He thinks this is the same thing.
