Amazon labeled “hostile” by White House because tariff fees are shown on purchases. Says they’re partnering with China. Update: Amazon backs down.

I usually use a courier service with an address in the US which is cheaper and faster than using the awful local mail service, but I'm gonna have to start using my actual address and hope for the best when ordering my chinese stuff :damn:

And it gets better 🤣 they’re so mad….of course they don’t want consumers to know that it’s Trump raising prices on them but companies absolutely should do what Amazon is doing

The White House @PressSec says this is a "hostile and political act" by Amazon

Surprised the orange tide is allowing his tool, Bezos, to do this.

Don’t think Bezos has much say in what Amazon does anymore

Wait for it... "Trump announced that Amazon will not be permitted to sponsor next year's egg roll"

All retailers should do the same. After all, it is not a tax placed by the retailer. Let's call it what it is.
It's a /search?q=#TrumpTax

Amazon: okay we'll show them.

I want MAGA to tell me ONE GOOD REASON why Amazon should not put Tariff rates on each product.

I also call on ALL online and offline stores to do the same.

- Grocery stores
- Convenient stores
- Restaurants
- Drug stores
- Etsy
- Ebay
- Shopify

Let's do it. Transparency is GOOD

BREAKING: The White House completely loses it over Amazon announcing that they will put a “tariff price” next to every item they sell, depicting how much of the price of that good is the result of Trump’s tariffs.

Karoline Leavitt says “This is a hostile and political act by Amazon. Why did Amazon do this… It’s not a surprise because Amazon has partnered with a Chinese propaganda arm.”

Americans have a right to know. It's not political. It's logical!

The same reason they don't put the profit margin on the products....

They will lose business.

@krassenstein
For being transparent or because Trump's tariffs are making their products unaffordable?

@SuckaFreeFool
They can do whatever they want.

However, explain why they didn't do that when inflation was out of freakingcontrol.

That was due to exorbitant unnecessary spending by the Biden administration, by the way.
That is 💯 undeniable.

@krassenstein
Because one man didn't singlehandedly cause inflation. Inflation was global and caused by supply and demand shocks. The trade war was sparked by our country only.

Is this the same @amazon that raises their prices a week before PRIME DAY so that they can then lower them back and show a discount during PRIME DAY? Yes for the people!

You still aren't answering my question? Why deflect to a completely unrelated topic?

@MrAustinRogers
BRIAN, WHY DIDN'T AMAZON PUT ON A "INFLATION LABEL" WHEN BIDEN RAISED INFLATION BY 40% IN 4 YEARS?

@krassenstein
Inflation was a global problem that was the result of supply and demand shocks from COVID. Tariffs are a direct result of Trump's idiotic trade policies.

Jeff is gonna make a play for richest Man.

Elon bread is mainly in electric cars. Amazon is terrible for the environment but people buy more of everything than they do electric cars so I think he will win.
Jeff is dabbling in electric vehicles with the funding of the Rivian vans he is using and his funding of this Slate EV company..
