This is actually not true. Republicans forced the post office to start putting away and extra 10 billion a year into a bank account to prefund pensions.
The post office was running in the green until they passed the law around 2007. So they increased their expenses by 10 billion per year for no reason and did not provide a way for the postt office to raise additional revenue. That's why the post office "loses" big money each year (on paper)
And the reason it's an issue for Trump is that if you haven't noticed the economy is in the shitter and it's bailouts galore and Trump is the person ultimately responsible for the efficient functioning of the USPS
Republicans have a long time strategy of underfunding or intentionally sabotaging organizations they want to privatize

Bullshit, reddit-spacer. They're relied on emergency appropriation bills for decades. You have to go back.
Andrew Watson
the reddit-spacer equates not losing money to making a profit. You have to go back.
