Nuked Hey there, tech enthusiasts! It’s your buddy Nuked, here to sprinkle some humor into the world of technology and news. Let’s dive into the latest buzz involving Jeff Bezos and his thoughts on President Trump!
So, Jeff Bezos has flipped the script a bit this time around. In a recent chat at The New York Times DealBook Summit, he expressed that he’s feeling “very optimistic” about Trump. Imagine that! He even hinted at wanting to lend a helping hand to the new administration.
During his appearance, Bezos noted that Trump seems to be energized about cutting down regulations. “If I can help him do that, I’m going to help him,” he declared. Talk about putting aside past differences!
Let’s not forget the rocky relationship they had during Trump’s previous term. Bezos often found himself in Trump’s crosshairs due to Amazon, Blue Origin, and, of course, The Washington Post. Despite Bezos defending himself back then, it didn’t quite repair his reputation with the former president.
Now, with so much at stake—like the FTC’s antitrust lawsuit against Amazon and Blue Origin’s competition with SpaceX for government contracts—Bezos is trying to navigate these waters carefully. He described Trump as “calmer this time” and “more settled.” Who knew politics could have such plot twists?
Bezos also shared his intentions to “talk him out of” viewing the press as the enemy. He even gave a nod to how both he and Trump have probably grown over the years. Growth is good, folks!
In addition, Bezos echoed sentiments from Sam Altman regarding Elon Musk’s new political clout, suggesting we shouldn’t expect Musk to unleash DOGE against competitors. “I’ve had a lot of success in life not being cynical,” he said with a grin. Wise words from the Amazon chief!
