  1. And Trump’s maniacal ego has convinced him that he should be on Mt. Rushmore. Someone should inform Trump that as a policy, we don't put impeached presidents on Mt. Rushmore. But I will say this, he has definitely earn the right to be the first face on Mt. Griftmore.

  2. Article I, Section 8, Clause 7 of the United States Constitution, known as the Postal Clause or the Postal Power, empowers Congress "To establish Post Offices and Post Roads." As America was expanding in the 1780s, the founding fathers realized that open access to secure and private communication among its dispersed citizens was critical to forming political groups and holding free elections without fear of retribution. The U.S. Constitution empowered Congress “to establish post offices and post roads." The founding fathers provided the necessary infrastructure to “bind” the growing nation together through communication and commerce. Thereby, the Post Office Department (now the U. S. Postal Service) was born. Trump: "They need that money in order to have the post office work so it can take all of these millions and millions of ballots,” Trump said in an interview with Fox. “If they don’t get those two items, that means you can’t have universal mail-in voting because they’re not equipped to have it.” This was Trump, the sitting US President, openly admitting to blocking additional funding for the United States Postal Service in order to make it more difficult for American citizens to vote. Let's face it, Trump doesn't believe you should have the right to vote unless you're voting for him. And that's not an exaggeration, he actually believes that. We have never seen anything like this from a sitting president.
