"Kamala Harris"

I mean, yeah, so here's the thing. I'm always welcoming anybody, including, of course, the private sector that wants to step up and support our democracy in any way possible. But I also believe that there are certain essential government functions that should not be privatized. And one of them is the Postal Service. The others are public education, public health, and public safety.

They should just not be privatized. We do not want people to have a profit motive in order to deliver basic and essential services to the American people. Because if you attach a profit motive, you will see that those who have will do better, and those who do not have will do worse. So that's where I go.

Listen, I think what you're speaking to are what we designed as the checks and balances in our government so that where there was abuse of power by any one branch, there would be a commensurate check on that abuse of power.

One could argue, though, that we have been in the midst of a constitutional crisis in that those checks and balances have not been reinforced, meaning that we have seen abject abuse of power by the executive branch and this president, Donald Trump.

But Congress as a whole has not held him accountable because it takes both the House and the Senate to do a lot of the things that actually would enforce that accountability. And right now the Senate is run by a bunch of folks who are doing his bidding. And so that's why I really do go to the point of the election, which is in less than three months.

But this is where the accountability also rests in, I think, the greatest power in our country, which is the people.

The people, and the people have great power, and I think they always are ultimately the check on an imbalance or an abuse of power within our systems. And so that means getting people registered to vote. It means emphasizing early voting because I am concerned about the manipulation of the U.S. Postal Service.
