Jeff Bezos uses Instagram to take an apparent swipe at a senior Trump official who accused him of ducking an important meeting
, in which he accused Bezos of dodging a conversation about Amazon's ongoing issue with counterfeit goods.
In the interview, Navarro described seeing Bezos last month at a dinner in Washington, DC, hosted by the Alfafa Club, an exclusive social club for politicians and executives. According to the Post, Navarro had been seeking a meeting with Bezos and decided to approach him to press for it. Bezos reportedly told Navarro to call Jay Carney, Amazon's senior vice president of global corporate affairs, who would set up a meeting.
Since the conversation, Amazon has offered to have senior Amazon executives meet with Navarro — and not Bezos himself — according to the Post. The entire situation, from the conversation at the dinner to the Post's report, appears to have rankled Bezos, who wrote this on Instagram: "Let's say you're at a big cocktail party and someone you don't know comes up to you while you're talking to your dad and girlfriend and asks for a meeting. Let's say this person is the kind of person who actually uses the word 'minions' to describe the people who work for you," Bezos wrote. "A) Yes, I'll definitely meet with you.D) Quietly resolve to become a shut-in.
