For all his claims of being a great businessman, Donald Trump is a chump compared to Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos. Bezos completely revolutionized the way we shop and helped make online commerce what it is today.
Bezos is also the owner of the Washington Post, and the newspaper has been highly critical of the Donald, even going to far as to suggest he may be guilty of tax evasion. As you might expect, this has not sat well with Trump, who took to Twitter yesterday to post these hateful tweets:
.@washingtonpost is going out of its way to tell failing candidates how to beat Donald Trump.The Post doesn’t get that I’m good at winning!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 7, 2015
The @washingtonpost, which loses a fortune, is owned by @JeffBezos for purposes of keeping taxes down at his no profit company, @amazon.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 7, 2015
The @washingtonpost loses money (a deduction) and gives owner @JeffBezos power to screw public on low taxation of @Amazon! Big tax shelter

Bezos responded to Trump–also via Twitter–and created what has now become a viral hashtag: #sendDonaldToSpace:
Finally trashed by @realDonaldTrump. Will still reserve him a seat on the Blue Origin rocket. #sendDonaldtospace https://t.co/9OypFoxZk3
— Jeff Bezos (@JeffBezos) December 7, 2015
Not long after this tweet, others on social media joined with Bezos on his idea to send Trump as far away for earth as possible:
Blue Origin was going to test with a chimp, but didn't want to risk harming an intelligent life form. #sendDonaldtospace

While one person made a very valid point regarding the idea:
We have too much trash already in space. Please don't #sendDonaldtospace https://t.co/4BGWWEkbVq

Looks like Trump just picked a fight with someone who knows how to use Twitter even better than he does. Scoreboard at the end of the first quarter: Bezos 1, Trump 0.
