They've been rivals for years, and now Trump's opening the door to him for a billion-dollar deal to "take over the moon".

The article discusses the evolving relationship between former U.S. President Donald Trump and Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon and owner of The Washington Post. During Trump’s first term, their relationship was openly adversarial, with Trump reportedly expressing hostility toward Bezos and his media outlet. However, this dynamic has shifted significantly in recent years. Trump has publicly engaged with Bezos, inviting him to private dinners and discussing space exploration initiatives, particularly those involving Bezos’ company Blue Origin. Under Trump’s second term, Blue Origin has secured several major government contracts, including a $2.4 billion contract for military and intelligence missions and a $188 million deal with NASA for lunar cargo delivery. Meanwhile, Elon Musk’s SpaceX has maintained strong ties with Trump, who supported Musk during the 2024 election campaign. This shift has led some within Bezos' circle to acknowledge the need to engage more closely with the administration, especially as Blue Origin seeks to compete in the growing government contracting sector. Amazon has also contributed financially to Trump’s inauguration fund and entered into a $40 million deal.
