He put his friend, who has massive financial backing in USPS competitors, in charge of it so that he would sabotage it.

UnholyMudcrab 08/20/20 11:15:03 AM #11:	RadiantAdolin posted... The president should be required to have some legal education An overly strict requirement The president shouldn't have the ability to pardon people The pardon needs to exist as a check against the judicial system. Something should be in place to guard against misuse, but the power shouldn't be removed altogether. The president should not be able to appoint people to public services, they should be elected There are hundreds, perhaps thousands of positions subject to presidential appointment.
