        Maybe this will show him that you can’t buy Trumps loyalty because he has no loyalty. However, I have my doubts that even Trump going from going from “My good buddy Bezos” to “Amazon is the enemy” in the course of a day will be enough of a object lesson for Bozos.

            I know, but but even so the whiplash move from “best buddy” to “enemies list” (and probably back again after this capitulation) should tell anyone who wants to ally with Trump what a futile of a move that is. It doesn’t matter how much you schmooze him, how give him, or how much he owes you; the moment you’re not useful to him Trump will throw you under the bus.

        “but all I wanted was an even more negative tax rate and to be able to fire workers for getting hurt on the job! I didn’t want the dictator to threaten me with the window treatment”

      Seemingly because their stock price started to fall due to the Trump admin’s reaction. Which, what? Why would that negatively impact their stock?
