Trump throws Amazon under the delivery truck in debate over U.S. Postal Service econmics - GeekWire

Panzer was shaken out of his kitty bed this afternoon by thunder and lightning coming from the Catosphere. Jumping into the Panzermobile, our brave kitty pilot headed into the storm. Following all the noise took him to the GeekWire site. There he discovered a post about President Trump, the postal service and Amazon was causing all the ruckus.

The post by Todd Bishop says U.S. President Trump has stated again he wants the United States Postal Service (USPS) to start charging Amazon more money to deliver the company's packages. Amazon has a contract with USPS to deliver the company's packages. According to federal regulations, if the money collected from Amazon's contract doesn't cover USPS's costs for delivery, the contract will be cancelled. The contract hasn't been cancelled, so USPS must already be charging Amazon the correct amount to deliver the company's packages.
Can somebody explain it to me?

Panzer says, "It makes no sense to me."
