I don't know what game this article is playing. > But Jeff Bezos, the Amazon founder and space pioneer, is a businessman, like any other, trying to make his way in the era of Donald Trump. He's not just any businessman, he's a billionaire who runs gigantic operations that depend on getting a healthy slice of federal and DoD dollars, so the author is either starting from a falsehood or is uninformed. To the rest of us, Bezos' game is clear. He's trying to thread through a multidimensional needle's eye. First, he's trying to appease Trump to get a share of DoD money. Second, he's trying to compete with fellow oligarch Elon Musk. Third, Bezos has to compete in such a way that there's not a popular movement against oligarchs as a class. Tough constraints. Wouldn't want to have to figure that out myself.
