I find it interesting that Trump, who boasted during the campaign that "it just makes me smart" when confronted with the fact that he has evaded taxes for 20 years, is now busy attacking Jeff Bezos and Amazon with fake facts about the need to pay one's fair share of taxes. For example, Trump wrongly tweets that Amazon pays zero when they actually pay about $1 billion per year.
I wonder if it because:
a) Trump is again using the presidency to take care of his own financial interests (he owns a lot of retail space that has been dropping in value very fast as Amazon beats his tenants in the retail game), or
b) he's ticked off that Bezos' personal wealth dwarfs his by nearly 40 times, or
c) both of the above.
