Trump regime threatens Amazon for daring to inform customers of the cost breakdown of their purchases.

I guess the Trump regime is okay with taxing Americans but demands companies hide the tax from American consumers.

Apparently if you are American you are not allowed to know why the goods you purchase are going up and by how much.

I guess it is easier to lie and manipulate people if you hide the facts from them.

Easier to make up numbers when you threaten anyone who provides the actual numbers.

Funny how it's okay and beneficial for him to do it, but it's not okay for companies to tell the truth about what he's doing.

That's certainly not the mark of a dictator.

@LordShadowfire I would also not be surprised if Elon Musk would be giddy about using DOGE to try and tank Amazon in their little game of "richest man in the world".

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow who said he told the press secretary to say anything

PicturesOfABetterTomorrow · 41-45, M

@MarineBob Caroline Leavitt issued an official statement so unless you think the press secretary went rogue and is just making statements of their own accord it obviously came down from the president and any official statement made by the press secretary is by definition treated as policy.

@MarineBob apparently thinks that the press secretary is going to start writing letters independently of Trump's wishes. I'd say that's a great way to get fired by Trump.

@helenS Absolutely they can. Pass bills that screw over specific sectors, pull government contracts. People forget Amazon has major contracts from IT related services to the government to leasing data centres to the NSA.

They could make Amazon bleed.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Honestly, he doesn't even have to do all of that. It's been determined that he can decide who is a terrorist group or terrorist sympathizer, based on his own opinions.

Please send help.
