Republican US Presidential frontrunner Donald Trump, who also hosts the US version of The Apprentice, took to twitter to have a go at Amazon and founder and CEO Jeff Bezos.
It will come as no surprise that The Washington Post (owned by Bezos) had only just recently been critical of Trump’s policy and presidential bid.
Here’s what Trump said:
The @washingtonpost, which loses a fortune, is owned by @JeffBezos for purposes of keeping taxes down at his no profit company, @amazon.

The @washingtonpost loses money (a deduction) and gives owner @JeffBezos power to screw public on low taxation of @Amazon! Big tax shelter

If @amazon ever had to pay fair taxes, its stock would crash and it would crumble like a paper bag. The @washingtonpost scam is saving it!

Bezos, who is also involved with space rockets, replied to Trump on Twitter.
Finally trashed by @realDonaldTrump. Will still reserve him a seat on the Blue Origin rocket. #sendDonaldtospace https://t.co/9OypFoxZk3
