Bezos on Trump: "I think he's a more mature, more disciplined [version] of himself than he was in his first term. Trump has lots of good ideas. He's been right about a lot of things. You have to give him credit where credit is due."

The hemp legalization has helped some farmers in my area but the Congressional Republicans want to take that away. I need another toke after reading Bezos’ bullshit.

...how anything The Failure has done benefits Bezos financially.
He'd be worth over a quarter-trillion if my dog was president.
If he thinks anything happening is better for his wealth, that is further evidence of hard drug issues.

Any president with an R after their name would have delivered that.
And, he probably owns a few of those congressional Rs, so The Failure was irrelevant

..... my billionaire tax cuts and no bid government contracts are paying off handsomely and lining my pockets with extra extra cash. All must be hunky dory with the middle and lower classes too.

The Golden Age of trDUMP is upon us - bask in the sunshine and endless riches coming your way. Money is falling out of the sky. God & Jeebuzz are so elated with their new Messiah they turned the money spigot on full blast to enrich us all.

Hilarious to refer to Trump as "mature" in any way, shape or form. Unless of course, Bezos is referring to Trump's age...

Hell right after Trump. Trump is the total opposite of mature! Bezos doesn’t seem to care how far Amazon has gone downhill after he left. He got his.

Even if he weren't calling reporters ugly and stupid and calling minorities "low IQ" individuals, his single "Quiet! Quiet, piggy" negates the "more mature" claim all by itself.

As far as discipline is concerned, how does that square with Trump's multiple middle-of-the-night tweetstorms followed by blatantly napping during meetings the next day?
