Trump mocks Amazon's Bezos as 'Jeff Bozo'

President Trump on Sunday night mocked Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos as "Jeff Bozo" in a tweet slamming The Washington Post, which Bezos owns.

"So sorry to hear the news about Jeff Bozo being taken down by a competitor whose reporting, I understand, is far more accurate than the reporting in his lobbyist newspaper, the Amazon Washington Post," Trump tweeted.

Trump's tweets came shortly after The National Enquirer came out with the latest in a series of articles about Bezos's divorce from his wife of 25 years.

American Media Inc., the parent company of the National Enquirer, is controlled by Trump's longtime friend David Pecker.

Not offended. Just surprised. No actually I'm not. This is Donald Trump we're talking about.

That Pecker has probably rolled on him?

Federal prosecutors have granted immunity to David Pecker, CEO of American Media, Inc., as part of the investigation into Trump’s former personal attorney, Michael Cohen, The Wall Street Journal reports. Pecker has reportedly “met with prosecutors and shared details about payments” Cohen made “in an effort to silence two women who alleged sexual encounters with” Trump. AMI is the publisher of the National Enquirer, and the company’s executives were reportedly involved in the payoffs of adult film star Stormy Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal—who both claim they had affairs with Trump. Daniels was paid $130,000 from Cohen’s shell company, and McDougal’s story was bought by the Enquirer for $150,000 in a deal that was reportedly brokered by Cohen.

To publicly gloat over a couple's divorce is as classless as it gets. Especially from a 3 times married, soon to be 3 times divorced trash heap like trump.

Dotard's jealousy is once again on full display.
