Trump eyes privatizing United States Postal Service during second term
The USPS was a target during his first administration, and it might now be on the chopping block due to financial losses
Summary
Donald Trump is considering privatizing the US Postal Service due to its financial losses, a move that could disrupt shipping and push hundreds of thousands of federal workers out of government.
Citing the USPS’s financial losses, Trump argued the agency should not rely on government subsidies.
While his specific privatization plans remain unclear, Trump previously clashed with the USPS during his first term, attempting to shift control of key functions like labor relations and rate-setting to the Treasury Department.
This move could significantly alter the structure and operations of the USPS if implemented.

Wow, so wild that the agency you crippled with a nonsensical pension funding requirement is no longer running as efficiently as you demand! what a huge surprise, no one could have seen this coming!
Super cool that the Democrats didn't reverse that insane requirement btw.

The Democrats did reverse that insane requirement. In 2022.
The democratic party is a limp dick.
Yes, but to be fair to them they did actually manage to reverse that particular nonsensical requirement.
