I have a co-worker who should be a total Trump supporter. He basically agrees with all Trump's policies. But he says categorically that he can never vote for Trump because of things like this. And I'll be he's not alone. I love the guy and hope he gets re-elected but the middle school name-calling does no one any good.
My understanding is that someone from NBC contacted the Trump campaign about this tape and that the Clinton campaign was going to release days before the election. Trump Campaign wanted to release it ASAP so they could recover from it. The Clinton Campaign didn’t want to be outscooped by the Trump campaign released in early October.
What is the penalty for giving up a 2020 DNC October Surprise these days? Since Hillary lost power, it can't be all that bad...
it was carefully worded .. but the fact is that the mainstream media, including Bezos’s Washington Post, won’t cover the story; by PDJT tweeting about it, they have to cover it.
I understand that, it does turn some people off, but it also might turn more people to him because he isn’t afraid of these media types who believe they can forge public opinion to their narrative.
President Trump branded these organizations for life, CNN will always be known as “fake news”. After Trump, how can they survive? Will anyone watch “fake news”? The only people watching them today are watching for their slanted Trump coverage. Those viewers are gone when President Trump is no longer president. So what do they have to do? They will have to make sure President Trump is re-elected so they all will have jobs for the next 4 years. The Anti-Trump media is in an interesting position right now, they can’t kill off the host that feeds them.
I think the uncertainty is the problem. I can’t remember which mega company it was, but a few years ago, the wife ended up with half the controlling stock after a divorce and actually ended up taking over the company. I’m not sure how she did...but I think it’s the possibility and the uncertainty that might alarm people. That said, your right, she did help him build the company and probably is pretty savvy.
As for Bezos, while he’s unlikeable on many levels and has always been hostile to Trump, I really think Trump shouldn’t have made that comment. Trump makes a lot of good tweets, even sarcastic ones, that get policy out there in the public eye, but this was pointless and unworthy.
Trump needs to let this one go.
That is him tagging his enemies, it works, it may be upsetting to never trumpers but i don’t care, give em hell donald.
Amazon is worth $780 billion
Bezos and his wife are worth $140 billion.
Never Trumpers? I have been a huge supporter of President Trump since day one and still am. But his juvenile name calling does him no good and is a turn off for many potential voters.
I’m a lifetime construction guy and I talk like that and I understand his language. But I don’t talk like that in front of customers. He needs to shut up.
Mockery works.
Anyone that would vote against their principles because of nsme calling doesn’t cling to those principles very hard. i don’t care ifhe had their picture and threw darts at them, he gets my vote purely because of his stances. his fighting back is more than they can take.
Mockery works.

Sometimes. Not in his case.
I think he holds 16% of the shares, and there was no prenup so it will be divided equally under state law. Supposedly the divorce is “amicable” but that’s what they always say!
You also think Americans won’t work because the illegals work cheaper, I question your support for trump. With illegals out of here wages will rise rapidly and we both know that because illegals and unskilled immigrants undercut the american workers, thst will demand more money for the same work.
You make an interesting thought. The media is entirely Trump-focused. If it doesn’t involve Trump they don’t care about it. I just returned from Mexico where there is a severe gasoline shortage in large areas to the point where most gas stations in Guadalajara were closed, and the few open stations had lines of 100+ cars. This has gone virtually unreported in the US since it can’t be blamed on Trump. What will they do once he’s gone?
It’s her money.
She was there from the start.
She participated in the inception and growth of Amazon.
She deserves half.
Probably should have just left the Bozo story alone. No upside to opining on this one.
