Donald Trump tweeted Wednesday that "Amazon is doing great damage to tax paying retailers. Towns, cities and states throughout the U.S. are being hurt - many jobs being lost!"
For the second time in a month, Trump attacked Amazon over tax issues.
The retail industry has felt the impact of the so-called "Amazon-effect," with many retailers closing stores around the country.
According to Bloomberg, citing a Credit Suisse report, the number of retail stores estimated to close in 2017 are on pace to reach nearly 8,000. In 2016, that number was around 2,000 stores.
