Donald Trump has been Amazon case for the past week in the media….
For me?
It’s about the lack of Federal taxes Amazon pays….
But theWashington Post says this….
President Trump claimed in a tweet that the Washington Post is a “lobbyist” for Amazon.
The Washington Post and Amazon are both owned by Jeff Bezos…..
