This is personal shit between Trump and Bezos over Bezos using the Washington Post to go after Trump. (The Washington Post put 25 reporters on exclusive duty to do nothing but dig up dirt on Trump...led by Carl Bernstein).
During the campaign, Bob Woodward stated that they had 20 people or so exclusively on Trump. Trump was, as a candidate, relatively unknown. They had a lot of digging to do.

That does not mean they maintain that kind of coverage on him now.

They also had all the other candidates covered too.

That does NOT mean that you are wrong about the source of Trump's irritation with Bezos. It definitely could be the reason.

As Woodward stated at the time:

Quote:
He said that Bezos has urged the Post to run as many stories on Trump and the other candidates so that voters can't say they didn't know about the eventual president.

"He said, 'Look the job at the Washington Post has to be tell us everything about who the eventual nominee will be in both parties, 15 part, 16 part series, 20 part series, we want to look at every part of their lives and we're never going get the whole story of course but we can get the best attainable," said the famed reporter.
