Trump admits he’s BLOCKING stimulus plan and funding for US Postal Service in bid to stop mail-in voting
THE PRESIDENT is holding up Americans' stimulus checks because he wants to prevent voting by mail fraud.
President Trump said Thursday morning he is blocking the $2 trillion stimulus package put forth by Democrats because it allots $25 billion in emergency funding to the U.S. Postal Service, which he equated as "election money" in convoluted reasoning involving mail-in ballots.

The president is blocking Democrats' stimulus package because it contains $25 billion in emergency funding to the U.S. Postal Service.
The president confidently emitted this morning on Fox News's 'Mornings with Maria,' that funding the U.S. Postal Service is a secret guise for allowing mail-in ballots.
"That's a rigged election waiting to happen. It's rigged and everyone knows it because you can't send out 60 million mail-in ballots to everybody in the--who knows who's going to get them," the president uttered this morning.
"The mailmen are going to get them, people are just gonna grab batches of them. And you're talking about China and Russia and they'll be grabbing plenty of them. It's a disaster," he said as he continued his tirade against the U.S. Postal Service.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Democrats have put forth a $3 trillion stimulus package under the HEROES Act, which the speaker went over this morning during her weekly briefing as bringing money to areas impacted most by the COVID-19 crisis.
However, Trump is unwilling to budge on the $25 billion Democrats will allocate to the "financially troubled" U.S. Postal Service.
'That's election money basically,' he said. "If they don't get those two items, that means you can't have universal mail-in voting."
Trump places blame of the stalled stimulus package negotiations onto the Democrats.
"It's their fault," he said. "They want $3.5 billion for something that's fraudulent ... for the mail-in votes, universal mail-in ballots. They want $25 billion for the post office."
Polisi's chutzpah
