Their value is in the millions at best but they just cost Amazon $10B. Be woke go broke! 😀
You just accused Trump of acting with conflict of interest. Obviously this is a troll post either way
Not if WP starts printing juicy digs like this — “The president had reportedly been reluctant to hire Bolton because of his mustache”
This is racist.
In Trump’s corrupt mind, he thinks because Bezos owns Wapo he must have editorial control. He doesnt and he wouldnt. Trump cant fathom that because he’s a shithead through and through. Trump supporters know this was a political decision, and theyre just doing 🤷♂️ because theyre ok with corruption
Bezos is worth $110 billion, this was a $10 billion deal. If Trump thinks Bezos will back down he's an idiot.
Back down of what? You’re foolish if you think Bezos has a personal vendetta against Trump. Bezos is a businessman, and if WP costs more money than it brings in he should get rid of it.
“I know exactly what Bezos and Trump think as if I slept under their beds last week!” — old Microsoft guy who probably has never worked on or known about Azure and AWS
It wasn’t purchased as a financial play.
I seriously doubt that it factored in. Microsoft has been defense contractor for years, they have close ties with Pentagon, and they proved to the dod that they can deliver. Also it’s known that if government asks MS will leave backdoors in its software for operatives. Amazon would be a much riskier contractor for the government.
^ this
Microsoft is a credible supplier, but it certainly factored in as Trump forced open a re-evaluation after AWS was previously thought to have won. So it seems either he intervened out at least revetsed decision that was favorable to AWS. At any rate, I'd rather America has the WaPo holding Trump to account, than Amazon have JEDI
Propping up news publications is a hobby of the ultra wealthy, few people buy them to make money.
Washington post will outlive Trump, dont you think?
I think OP is saying this probably not the only time it’ll cost Bezo’s
Dump Lauren Sanchez because she... never mind
