Jeff Bezos Revokes Donald Trumps Amazon Shopping Privileges
Tony Swartz 2 days ago Off the Wire
In response to Donald Trump revoking The Washington Posts press credentials, the papers owner has banned the presidential candidate from the e-commerce site Amazon.com.
On Tuesday, one day after the presumptive Republican nominee announced he was nixing access to his campaign events for journalists from the 138-year-old newspaper, Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos who bought The Washington Post in 2013 said Trump would no longer be allowed to purchase anything on the popular shopping site.
Based on his incredibly thin skin and childish behavior toward one of the most respected news outlets in the world, we are hereby revoking the shopping privileges of the con artist and pathological liar known as Donald J. Trump, Bezos said in a statement about his fellow billionaire.
Bezos statement explained how all known internet protocol (IP) addresses connected to Trump, his offices, and his residences would be blocked by Amazon. ..........
