Exactly.
This is all they have.
They can say nothing positive about one damned thing this administration has done, because only a few special interests have benefited while the rest of America languishes.
(The USPS can't even hire enough letter carriers here to cover the routes--which tells me the 'fringe factor' must be so high in Federal Hiring that the demographics here won't support the labor base needed for one of the traditionally considered 'gravy' government jobs. )
All they have to define themselves is what they are not, and in their desperation in trying to do so they have attempted to define us as what we are not, either.
So they produce just another legion of strawmen to burn down, but none of that is real.

@Smokin Joe Well,I am not certain what the starting wage is at the USPS these days,but since it is controlled by the feral gooberment,I stongly suspect it is not much higher than the minimum wage being paid to illegal aliens to drump trash cans at Hardees,and Hardees provides free meals and the there is a lot less work to do.
I am retired from USPS,and I can tell you truthfully that I can not remember even ONE single day when I did not have to work my ass off.
Granted,I LIKED working my ass off because I would get bored easily if I didn't keep busy,and end up looking for another job. To ME,working a 10 + hour day at a job that bores me is a form of torture,but I LOVED working 10 + hour days at jobs that kept me busy.
With minimum wage to work at Hardees with benefits added at roughly the same pay level you would get working your ass off for USPS,it's no wonder USPS is having trouble hiring employees.
ESPECIALLY given their anti-veteran policies. I had two different USPS managers in charge of new hires tell me they hated hiring veterans and wanted to be able to hire who they WANTED to hire. The first one got away with refusing to hire me based on my 30 percent disability rating on my lower back from a parachuting injury,and gave me a big smile while explaining it to me that "We can't hire people with bad backs!"
The second time was after I got rated at 40 percent for Agent Orange infections. The VA docs were so mad about that because they didn't want any outside medical practice or agency to tell them what to do. The USPS was their little fiefdom,and they were jealous over their authority.
It became political,so Congress ordered the VA to send vets claiming Agent Orange disability ratings to a private cancer clinic in New Orleans to be evaluated. After I went,I returned home with a 40 Percent disability rating due to Agent Orange exposure in VN,and there wasn't a damn thing the VA could do about it.
My 30% back disability rating would have normally been added to my new rating of 40% for the Agent. Orange,but was reduced to just 10 percent by the VA doctor in Denver "because in my judgement your back is no longer that bad." He said this with a smile,because if it had remained my VA disability check would have been much higher. What it was,was punishment for going to New Orleans and getting an Agent Orange disability rating.
I got mad at first,and then it occurred to me that I now had an official US Government evaluation on my back that stated I no longer had a bad back.
So I took the USPS exam again,passed it again,and when the butthole from USPS smiled at me and told me "We are not going to hire you because you have a bad back",I smiled back at him and produced my official US Government document stating that I no longer had a bad back,and he HAD to hire me.
Boy,was HE pissed!
