BTW, mail theft is a felony: The penalties for mail theft under federal law are severe and reflect the gravity of the crime. According to 18 U.S. Code § 1708, those found guilty of mail theft face the possibility of fines up to $250,000 and imprisonment for up to five years. This applies to several acts of mail theft, including stealing, taking, or obtaining mail by fraudulent means from a range of sources such as mailboxes, post offices, mail carriers, or any authorized mail depository.​

I have even heard his name, I thought he was a "normal" candidate.
There is also the second federal offence of depositing material in a mailbox without passing through the mail system, just in case we need another charge.

Is this really for real?

A few people on a mail route?

Maga perspective.....
Democrat does something bad. The whole party is horribly corrupt.
Republican does something bad. Mock it as insignificant.
