So Trump/DeJoy killed my local "Pony Express"

Last edited Wed Nov 19, 2025, 02:22 PM - Edit history (1)

Returning eBay purchase.

Rode my mountain bike 2 miles, 43 degrees, nice day for a ride.

Didn't think the huge banner applied to the whole place, maybe just one of their suppliers.

The owner waited on me, told me he couldn't process my return.

Something about DeJoy cancelling all the auxillary post offices.

Now they are just selling off the merchandise and lottery.

He had that business over 20 years.

Everything Trump touches dies.
