A political cartoon shows a mailbox labeled Trump Mail consuming ballots while two citizens hold mail-in votes. The image responds to 2020 reports of USPS changes under Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, a Trump ally. Critics said removals of sorting machines and collection boxes aimed to hinder mail voting during the pandemic. The cartoon uses the mailbox as a visual stand-in for alleged interference. DeJoy defended operational decisions as efficiency measures. The timing overlapped with rising mail ballot use due to COVID-19. The piece highlights public anxiety over delivery reliability for the November election.
