Even before Donald Trump "won" the presidency, the morbidly rich have been trying to privatize the post office. Now, they have even more reason to and if they succeed they may privatize democracy itself.

Mark Dimondstein joins Thom Hartmann to discuss the reasons why Trump and his billionaire friends are waging a war against the post office, and why our democracy relies on a solid post office. Do you think the post office belongs to the public or wall street? Mark Dimondstein is the president of the American Postal Workers Union, APWU, AFL-CIO executive council member.
