Is Jeff Bezos Hinting At A Political Career With The Democratic Party?

Jeff Bezos has been beefing with Democratic leadership on Twitter recently about issues ranging from the failed disinformation board to quelling inflation, which could point to Bezos running for a position in the Democratic Party. Bezos is marketing himself as a fake populist rich guy who wants to help the middle class, which is an obvious lie since we all know Bezos just wants to protect his own money and influence. Cenk Uygur, Jayar Jackson, and Ben Carollo discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 6-8 pm ET. http://youtube.com/theyoungturks/live

“Jeff Bezos is getting nervous. You can tell because he’s going on Twitter more, the universal activity of those who are channeling their restlessness in an unhealthy way. This should make the rest of us nervous, too. This is a big, flashing warning sign that America’s richest union-buster is about to throw himself more forcefully into politics – an inevitability that could have many bad outcomes, but only one good one.

For the past week, the centi-billionaire Amazon founder has been firing off tweets not about his typical, anodyne interests – improved penis-shaped rocket design, luxury head wax – but rather about his policy opinions. Though Bezos (or whichever PR drone drafts his tweets) writes with the bloodlessness of a man who has attended too many management consulting meetings, it is easy to imagine the seething anger that must have been present in order to prompt him to produce them in the first place. On May 13, he criticized one of Joe Biden’s economic pronouncements, tweeting that “Raising corp taxes is fine to discuss. Taming inflation is critical to discuss. Mushing them together is just misdirection.”
