Bezos Denies Musk’s Claim The Amazon Founder Predicted Trump Would Lose

Jeff Bezos is pushing back against Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s claim the Amazon founder predicted President-elect Trump would lose the 2024 presidential election.

“Just learned tonight at Mar-a-Lago that Jeff Bezos was telling everyone that @realDonaldTrump would lose for sure, so they should sell all their Tesla and SpaceX stock,” Musk wrote on his social media platform X in the early hours of Thursday morning.

“Nope. 100% not true,” Bezos replied.

“Well, then, I stand corrected,” Musk responded, with a laughing emoji.

Bezos, who owns The Washington Post, did not endorse either presidential candidate this year and sparked a revolt from staffers and subscribers of the newspaper after he halted the editorial board’s endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris, establishing a new policy of not issuing endorsements for presidential candidates.
