Seems like, I can never get an answer from the excusers.

Do they not answer me because they are complicit?

Or do they not answer because they are so used to buying into egregious maneuvers that they are numb to what is happening right under their noses?

Or do they not answer because they have fallen hook, line, and sinker for whatever their favorite television channel plants in their brains?

Or is a hijacked amygdala their problem?

Or do they think it’s just fine to wipe one’s behind with the Constitution?

Whatever it is — I cannot seem to get an answer from the excusers as to why the timing of the attack on the PO must be NOW?

Hmmmm, whatever could it be?

Why can’t those who blithely excuse this transparent attack on the PO answer my simple question, — “Why now?”

Well, here I am, quoting myself (geez). But it’s been a few days since I asked the question, “Why now?”

I still don’t have an answer. Maybe that’s because I segued the OP’s Facebook post into my asking for reasons why what is happening to the post office is happening at this time in history. Why now?

Nobody answered my question. And, oh my, I think someone implied that I must be a conspiracy theorist. Yeah, right.

Anyway, I started to get the feeling that I had been offensive by asking people to think about what is happening right under their noses and then give an explanation of why they think the timing of trying to hamstring the PO is OK.

But (sigh) no answer yet.

I hope you will read through my quote above, including the multiple choices of my thoughts about what could possibly be causing excusers to excuse. I really want to know how people can excuse the sudden attack on the PO. — Why now?

I remain,
Inquisitive Boomer
