Trump has been ramping up his attacks against Amazon in recent weeks. During his Tuesday night campaign rally in Phoenix, Trump called The Post "a lobbying tool for Amazon, OK." The Post is owned by Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos.
Last week, Trump tweeted that Amazon is "doing great damage to tax paying retailers."
"Towns, cities and states throughout the U.S. are being hurt - many jobs being lost!" he wrote.
He's repeatedly tweeted about the "Amazon Washington Post" and the "AmazonWashingtonPost" while blasting coverage in the publication.
"The #AmazonWashingtonPost, sometimes referred to as the guardian of Amazon not paying internet taxes (which they should) is FAKE NEWS!" he tweeted in late June.
