Trump’s fallacious attacks on Amazon are more of the same. When he feels threatened, he attacks. Trump is not concerned that those attacks have absolutely no basis in fact, but that is of no concern to him or to his supporters. “Trumpies” choose to be ignorant; they expect him to offer them ‘alternative facts,’ and he never disappoints them.

Contrary to Trump’s claim, the Post Office does make money from their contract with Amazon. I have no doubt that they receive a discounted rate, but that’s standard. The same situation occurred when I worked for the Decennial Census. We had a huge contract with Fed-Ex.

The real reason Trump has been attacking Amazon is the fact that Jeff Bezos also owns the Washington Post which has revealed multiple stories about criminal actions committed by himself and his circle of sinners.

I am proud to say that as I write this Mr. Bezos has not reacted to Trump’s falsehoods. This is more harmful to his ego than when his fake hair flies up in the wind.

Let me be totally honest here; I don’t think that I can stand four years of Trump. He has become an even more disgusting dirty old man since he was gifted the Electoral College by Vladimir Putin and Robert Mercer. Every day I wake up hoping that our national nightmare is over and Trump will no longer be embarrassing our nation from the White House.

Like most other Americans I sincerely miss President Obama. I miss his ability to speak clearly and intelligently to the American people. I miss his ability to accept advice from an extremely qualified cabinet and close advisers which resulted in good decisions for our nation’s people. I miss his compassion and his patriotism.

Every day I wake up and realize that we have a moron and a wannabee dictator watching television in the West Wing.

Let’s help him retire early. Remove all Republicans from office in November and he will become a whimpering bully with no power.
