Amazon passes Alphabet in market value, trails only Apple
Amazon passed Google parent Alphabet in market value, and now only Apple is worth more based on that measure. Amazon ended the day with a market value of $766.5 billion versus $761 billion for Alphabet. The milestone underscores Amazon’s rise as a tech giant, expanding well beyond its core e-commerce business into cloud computing, artificial intelligence, consumer devices, entertainment, package delivery and many other areas.(GeekWire)

- Trump has discussed altering the company's tax treatment because several of his friends told him Amazon is hurting their businesses and "killing shopping malls and brick-and-mortar retailers," the report says.
Where is Trump on this?:

In a nutshell, its cheaper to ship a package from Mainland China to anywhere in the U.S. than it is for that same package to ship point to point within our borders. About a $1.10 cheaper/package.

Fox News hasn't covered it so that's probably why he doesn't know about it yet.

To be fair, "private labeling" in Amazon means finding a Chinese product and repackaging it with your logo. I'll gladly screw over middle men every single time.
Trump just lowered the bar showing his ignorance has no limits. Ranting about a company for using the nations infrastructure is laughable. Amazon has made their investors wealthy. Trump has left his investors holding the bag, lucky to recover pennies on the dollar in court - not to mention he has received massive corp welfare & countless bailouts.
