Trump bilked USPS - has not paid USPS for COVID-19 postcards featuring Trump's name

WASHINGTON – The Trump administration has not yet repaid the United States Postal Service more than six months after the agency sent out COVID-19 guidelines on postcards prominently featuring the president’s name.

USA TODAY reported earlier this year the total cost of printing and mailing the postcards was $28 million, with a total printing cost of $4.6 million, and the Trump administration was negotiating the reimbursement with the Postal Service for the cost.

But the bill for the postcards sent to 138 million residential addresses has still not been paid.

“No reimbursements have been made at this time,” said Postal Service spokesperson David Partenheimer.

Is there no way we can lock the asshole in jail pending the investigations into the many criminal acts?
We KNOW we'd all be safer having him out of the power seat.
