After calling Amazon owner Jeff Bezos’s impending divorce a “beauty” last week, President Trump switched his tone on Sunday night by propping up the National Enquirer’s coverage of Bezos’ divorce and suggesting that the tabloid’s reporting was “far more accurate” than the Washington Post, which Bezos owns.
