      Bezos kissed Trump’s ass by financing and producing a movie about his wife and by attending his inauguration, among many other monetary means and media influence. He threw a shit ton behind Trump specifically to buy influence and favors to benefit and enrich Amazon and himself. And yet here he is with Amazon being directly harmed by Trump’s actions… therefore, he’s a sucker.

        Oh. Thanks. I don’t normally use that vernacular and considered it a lollipop, so I got confused and was wondering if it had anything to do with Inception’s pinwheel to whatever due to the similar style.

          I’d call that style of big spiraled candy a lollipop too. I only call the smaller candies on a stick that fit in you mouth a sucker. But I got what they were going for.

            Indeed, i went with it because the only useable images I was finding for ‘sucker’ were enough on the phallic side to be annoying.
