Progressives in the media and in Congress have taken the “save the Post Office!” conspiracy theory to an entirely new and hilarious level.
Recently, the picture seen here went viral, along with a few others showing postal workers removing old mailboxes — many of them covered with rust, graffiti, and other signs of age. Now, if you have a shred of common sense, you might be thinking the obvious: clearly they’re just being replaced because they’re old. And you would be right.
However, Democrats didn’t have the same reaction. Instead, they see it as part of a broader conspiracy for President Donald Trump — the evil Orange Hitler that he is — to stop people from voting for Joe Biden via mail. One member of Congress even chained himself to one of these mailboxes, proudly proclaiming that “Trump can’t take this one.”
Adding to the never-ending cringe cycle, New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is talking about staring some kind of “progressive pen pal program” — which apparently involves all of her fans buying stamps for some reason.
Now, the Postmaster General has testified before the Senate, issuing some much-needed clarifications. For one, no — President Trump isn’t just going around stealing people’s mailboxes. Some of these are in fact being removed because, well, nobody uses them anymore. But most of them are simply being replaced — as anyone could have guessed.
With today’s Democratic Party, everything the Trump Administration does is part of a grand conspiracy. They have hyped themselves into such an advanced state of paranoia and anxiety, that they can’t process anything that doesn’t reinforce what they already believe to be true.
So, to anyone worried that Emperor Orange Man is stealing your mailboxes, calm down — and please don’t chain yourself to any of them.
Here’s Mark Dice with the clips.
