I disagree with you
i'm not defending anything, i'm pointing out that there are large and varied interests at play and Trump's personal vendettas affect actual human beings
In a vacuum, sure those are legitimite concerns about a president using his influence to carry out a vendetta against a corporation. But this isn't occurring in a vacuum.i'm not defending anything, i'm pointing out that there are large and varied interests at play and Trump's personal vendettas affect actual human beings
Does Trump actually care about Amazons business model? Hell no. Did the 17 Democrat senators who voted for the CRAPO bill all have pure motives? Hell no. While we're all being hypocrites and picking and choosing when to care about the justice of political influence, I choose not give a fuck about Trump's vendetta against Bezos.i don't believe for a minute trump has any opinion on Amazon's business model other than:
a) who runs it
b) does that person suck up to me
b/c if the answer to B is 'yes', then Bezos would probably be secretary of labor or some other bullshit position of power to be abused for Amazon's benefit
so your real-world concerns are less of a concern than the capricious attitudes of the President's whims
Great time for you #resistance folks to finally say something about authoritarianism, when you're stanning for a fucking billionaire. Jesus thats gross.
Sure. Or even a broken clock is right twice a day, and billionaires are indefensible. It turns out that the enemy of enemy isnt always my friend.Odd that there is always a reason to support Trump.

Well said. I’m less worried about Amazon doing the right thing than the pressure on Amazon to do the right thing.
