Embrace, extend, and extinguish. Microsoft has spent like 4 years building up good will after destroying trust in them for the past 20. Trust is easily lost and is hard to earn.

Why do you think that? I think Amazon will get what they want - mainly a city to capitulate to their demands. I’ve talked to people in Pittsburgh and Atlanta and the majority wanted Amazon. I don’t think most people realize outside of tech
