The Official "Damned Trump" Thread: Phase II

[Rev. Rye]

President Trump on Saturday lambasted Walmart over its decision to raise prices this week due to the high costs associated with the Trump administration’s trade war.

“Walmart should STOP trying to blame Tariffs as the reason for raising prices throughout the chain,” the president wrote on Truth Social. “Walmart made BILLIONS OF DOLLARS last year, far more than expected.”

“Between Walmart and China they should, as is said, ‘EAT THE TARIFFS,’ and not charge valued customers ANYTHING,” he added. “I’ll be watching, and so will your customers!!!”

"Shut up and lose profit due to my stupid policies!"

Nice to know that Dumbass didn’t think through the most basic shit about how businesses would respond to tariffs before he decided to break the world economy. Then again, given that this was a man who, at one point, single-handedly lost two cents of every dollar lost by an American business, his lack of understanding of the most basic aspects of business makes sense.
