President Donald Trump says recent changes in the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) operations aren’t meant to sabotage the upcoming election, addressing claims promoted with scant evidence by Democratic lawmakers and media outlets.

“We want to make sure that the Post Office runs properly, and it hasn’t run properly for many years. For probably 50 years, it’s run very badly. So we want to make sure that the Post Office runs properly and doesn’t lose billions of dollars,” Trump told reporters on Aug. 17.
