Amazon founder and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos congratulates Trump on a "decisive victory"

“No country has much opportunity. I wish Donald Trump every success in leading and uniting the America we all love, Bezos wrote in X.

Before this presidential election, the Washington Post refused to endorse one candidate for the first time in decades. The publication has always supported Democratic candidates, and this time the staff has already prepared an article in support of Harris, but Bezos ordered not to publish it. This led to conflicts within the team and massive replies from readers.
