In an earnings call today Walmart is announcing that it is raising prices due to The Very Stable Genius’ stupid tariffs. The only people surprised by this are the MAGA morons who believe that Trump is some great businessman and who eagerly swallow his lies.
Oh but wait—I was told over and over again that it is other countries that pay the tariffs. Trump swore billions of dollars would “come pouring into our country”. Hahahaha yeah nope. Tariffs are a tax that WE as consumers pay. Walmart itself is saying this is a direct result of the tariffs.

And he doesn’t even know this is happening because he’s over getting bribes from enemies of Israel who’ll tell him to shut up when they start using our weapons that we sold them on Israel.
This is a story that us old folks tell: Walmart, when Sam Walton was alive, prided itself (and became the monster it is today) on “made in USA” products. These days, even their “made in America” tags are made in China.

I remember the first Walmart stores all had a huge banner when a person stepped inside, it said “Made in America!”
Those days are gone.

@NJChicaa my problem with Amazon is solved now let's hope that things won/t be too bad with Walmart. However, I got to see first hand the changes on Amazon, I wanted to order 8 cans of Hormel chili for $16 and Amazon said the price had changed to $20 needless to say I do not need this chili at this time,

Some people are saying prices haven't been changing much . . . but oh, just everyone wait - it's comin'. If Walmart is raising prices, you bet prices everywhere are going to up. Anyone still think we're gonna see lower prices soon? Good luck with that one . . . $ky high prices.
