In October 2019, Amazon sued the Pentagon, alleging that President Donald Trump had blocked the company from securing a $10 billion cloud-computing contract because of his animus toward The Washington Post and its owner Jeff Bezos—whom the US president derided as “Jeff Bozo.”
At the time, the dispute was just one example of the near-constant skirmishes between Trump’s White House and corporate America. But the episode left an enduring mark on Bezos, the Amazon founder and the world’s second-richest person.
Over the past year, Bezos has executed a sharp public reversal in his relationship with Trump—whom he previously criticised as a “threat to democracy”—that has surprised even longtime associates and has stunned the Post’s newsroom.
