not only did bernie not get a single thing he supposedly wanted but he held the door open for trump to come in and completely staff up an empty board of governors with his authoritarian robber barons who are killing the postal workers hours and trampling over their workforce anyway.

theyre making *massive* backbreaking cuts to the usps now and doing a lot of irreversible damage to the infrastructure while bernie was nuking a dem presidents appointments over potentially modest cuts (that he assumed).

the same horrible political instincts that led bernie to get blown out in the primary are the same ones that led him to facilitate the complete destruction of the usps at a rapidly increasing pace with no moderating forces on the board to hold it up.

once again...this is why you dont obstruct presidents of your own party. plenty of dem disagree with their prez appointments for one reason or another but they dont obstruct them like mitch mcconnell or hold their own party hostage like the freedom caucus. but bernie is all ideology and no forethought.

why wasnt he this vehement about listening to unions when they were objecting to losing their hard fought private health insurance plans over medicare for all?
