And I hope he has jobs for the thousands of people Amazon employs. What an asinine thing to do.
The word racketeering and abuse of power comes to mind... Mueller, Oh, Mueller....
Well, considering the economy is likely to start shedding hundreds of thousands of jobs per month soon (thanks to the Trump recession) a lot more people than Amazon employees are going to have to worry.
I know small businesses who sell products on Amazon. Without amazon they would take a financial hit and be forced to lay off staff. Small businesses exist online and phyically.

This is true - Amazon does have a pretty established marketplace for independent businesses to sell their products on Amazon's site.
I mean, I don't love Amazon (although like any consumer today, I'll shop there occasionally) - they certainly have issues. But...how is this not an abuse of power by Trump?
Who are you to tell me where I should or shouldn't spend my money? I thought in a free market I was free to buy from whomever I choose, and that the market will determine the prices.
Are you advocating that the president should decide which companies will be allowed to compete in America and which will be taken out because the he doesn't like the owner?
No! I'm advocating that all Americans should fall back upon their own sense of independence and self-reliance -- and not fall for all the garbage peddled by both sides of the nation's current polarization.

What does what you are writing have to do with Amazon, exactly?
Why? Because they're successful? I thought the GOP allegedly believed in capitalism? WHEN did they decide limiting one's success was desirable?
When the toddler-in-chief doesn't like them. That's the whole story here. Trump doesn't like Bezos, probably because he's a hell of a lot more successful than Trump could ever dream of. When you put a toddler in the White House you should expect toddler temper tantrums to follow.

When it hurts Trump's friends I guess
But it isn't about Amazon...it isn't about the USPS which is crippled by Congressional design...not Amazon
It is about Jeff Bezos who owns the WaPo paper --Whom Trump hates more than CNN...
He hates it so much he doesn't mention it like he does the NYTimes or CNN
And he is afraid of the reporters and editors there way more than North Korea
