I’m just trying to figure out: does the US mail service even have the right to decide which mail to deliver and which not to?
Using the US Mail to perpetrate a fraud is a Federal crime. God on Earth Trump says mail in ballots are inherently fraudulent. The Post Office has it's own police force, the Postal Inspectors, to investigate and prosecute misuse of the mail. There have been certain items that have been banned from the mail. Recall, a year or two ago, there was a push to make it illegal to ship RU486 pills through the mail. So, yes, it probably would be possible to require the Post Office to refuse to handle ballots. Such a law or authoritarian decree would be challenged in court, but his nibs is expert at keeping things tied up in litigation, for years.
