Trouble in Paradise as Jeff Bezos causes extreme butt hurt for Dear Leader Kim Jong Don & his beautiful tariffs

White House: Amazon tariff price announcement is hostile

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Tuesday that Amazon's announcement that it will include the price of tariffs on the pricetag for products is a hostile act.

Leavitt said she had just spoken to President Donald Trump about the Amazon announcement and that his message about it was: "This is a hostile and political act by Amazon."

Seriously, this all stopped being amusing about 30 seconds into his first term, but his obsessive headline-watching behavior has gotten much, much worse.

And that 39% number is going to get worse, too.

It will be the jockeying for position, the infighting, that does him in. It won't be any of his words or deeds. It will be an uprising in his little Village of the Damned. We've ALREADY seen Musk screaming profanities in proximity to the oval office.

that's exactly the scenario I envision, his own incompetent appointees will turn on him and bring this whole illegal regime crashing down, and it can't come soon enough.

As long as it's accurate, then there's nothing they can do.
Well, except if they suspend the Constitution.

The billionaire class that he set out to bankrupt them too. And Bezos just figured out what a dope he has been. Hope he has a severe break with Trump soon because I’m missing out on same great KDramas on prime.

It’s their big initiative that they are proud of. They should be happy that Amazon is putting their actions on display. They could even put tags on that say “Trump did this.” He should take credit for his actions
