Speaking with reporters today in the White House briefing room, Trump press secretary Karoline Leavitt said to reporters, "I will not speak to the president's relationships with Jeff Bezos, but I will tell you that this is certainly a hostile and political act by Amazon."...

Leavitt accused Amazon of being a "China-aligned company," in what I would call one of her rare missteps since taking on PressSec duties earlier this year.

The White House would have been better advised to follow Napoleon's advice to his generals at the Battle of Austerlitz, when the opposing Austrian and Russian forces began falling into his trap: "Gentlemen, let us wait a little; when your enemy is executing a false movement, never interrupt him."

Today would have been a good day for the White House to watch quietly—and say nothing.

And what is Amazon's false movement? Amazon said today that the company plans to break out tariffs as part of the prices displayed on its website...

...

If Amazon thinks displaying tariffs will hurt Trump politically, Newsmax's Rob Schmitt has a different idea:

"This will backfire. Amazon buys Chinese trash for $0.70 cents. Pays $0.50 tariff. Sells to you for $18 plus $0.50. Customer realizes they're buying Chinese trash."

Indeed.

Not only that, but displaying the import tax—that's what a tariff is—will achieve something I've been demanding for years that Amazon would do: be upfront about where their goods come from.

Goods made in Communist China—possibly by slave labor—will show a 145% tariff, making them easy to identify. "Thank you, no." Taiwan and a 10% tariff? "Maybe, maybe not." US-made and with zero tariff? "Man, I wish they'd bring back that One Click button!"... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
