    He is know telling walmart that they shouldnt raise prices and instead just eat the price of his tariffs. He wants companies to lose money, in order to save himself from his awful and terrible tariff policy.  Trump has no business telling business how to run their companies.  Putin does this exact shit in russia.  These corporations better start realizing they made a huge mistake with don the con and do something about it, before trump is able to just with draw money from your accounts when he wants, like putin can do.

     

    This is no longer a free country, when you have a leader that is trying to control every aspect of our society.

    To all the maga morons across the country, just shut your mouths and go back under your rocks to never be seen and heard from again.  The damages that all of you have done to OUR COUNTRY so many years to repair if it even can be.  SICKENING ALL OF YOU CREATED THIS MONSTER THAT YOU ALL CALL YOUR ORANGE GOD

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-warns-walmart-dont-raise-155519849.html

     

    and believe me i truly hate all these corporations robbing us, but i dont believe a President has any business running his mouth in any persons business like this.  This is all so trump can say, see i did all these tariffs and prices didnt go up.  STOP BAILING THIS ORANGE CLOWN OUT ON A DAILY BASIS.  Chickenshit bezos should have told him to pound salt, but he chickened out.  BULLIES WILL KEEP BULLYING UNTIL YOU WORK UP THE GUTS TO KNOCK THEM ON THEIR ASSES

    Yeah! No president has any business telling business how to run their companies! an_roll_laugh

     

    President Biden blasted corporate “price gouging” more forcefully this week than ever before. 

    • President Biden criticized companies that have failed to bring prices down even as inflation eases.
    • Let me be clear: To any corporation that has not brought their prices back down — even as inflation has come down, even supply chains have been rebuilt — it's time to stop the price gouging — giving the American consumer a break." 
    • Biden launches strike force to tell business how to run their companies.

     Biden on gasoline prices;

    We haven’t seen the lower prices reflected at the pump though. Meanwhile, oil and gas companies are still making record profits — billions of dollars in profit,” the president said Monday.  

    “My message is simple. To the companies running gas stations and setting those prices at the pump: Bring down the prices you’re charging at the pump to reflect the cost you pay for the product.”

    Do it now,” Biden said. “Do it now. Not a month from now — do it now.”

    @UNIMAN

     really another typical trump supporter who doesnt see the difference.  Yes biden blasted them, difference is trump is threatening companies, huge difference there.  If this is the country you truly want to live in, congrats.  But since everybody now knows with 100 percent certainty that you only come here is to troll and start trouble.  So i dont care what your responses are. Save your time replying to my posts, i could care less what you write, cause trump could never do nothing wrong in your sheep eyes. bye 

    He did this shit with amazon, made them not post tariff prices.  trump is piece of crap bully, but in truth hes sissy punk.  Hes no different then diddy, uses power to intimidate people.  Without all their people around them, they are scared little wimps.

    Biden created a damn STRIKE FORCE to target corps and telling gas stations "Do it now!". 

    Trump just told Walmart to absorb the cost after they warned increases were coming. Walmart should do what Walmart wants to do.

    Biden created a damn STRIKE FORCE to target corps and telling gas stations "Do it now!". 

    Trump just told Walmart to absorb the cost after they warned increases were coming. Walmart should do what Walmart wants to do.

    Made Amazon not post tariff prices??  

    “This was never approved and not going to happen,” an Amazon spokesperson said.

    Well i wasnt in that camp.  My father had Parkinson's so i could easily see biden wasnt there and going downhill. I never once said he was sharp as a tack.  The people all around him could have easily seen that as close to him as they were and whos at the most fault is bidens whole family for not having him drop out of the race and in fact should have stepped down from being President at some point.  By him staying in, it cost democrats a chance for a primary and the ability for anybody to use the campaign war chest except for harris. Bad moves all around.  Am sure its tough on every President when its time to leave the office, they are addicted to the power and everybody ass kissing them.  Just look how far trump tried to go to remain in power.

    Difference between me and a maga is that i will say what the truth is and not just cover for somebody just because they are in my party.  A maga will never do the same.

    Yeah.....it's no wonder they wanted to conceal all that. This will end up being the biggest political scandal in history.

    Amnesty international warns that Trump administration  has embraced authoritarian tactics to weaponize government to advance an anti-rights agenda. Undermining press freedom. Attacking rights of immigrants and LGBTQ people. Forcing closures of DEI programs. Purging government information. Suppressing right to protest. Threatening universities and law firms. Eroding rule of law. Sabotaging norms and institutions. Fostering a climate of fear and division. Now CIVICUS has added U.S. to list of countries with failing freedoms.

    let's not forget, Joe forced a shit contract down the throats of the railroad workers who had all the leverage in that negotiation.  Joe forced the union man to accept concessions, so the "economy" didn't shut down

     

    then all of a sudden in the year leading up to his hopeful re-election bid, Joe pleaded with those same railroad companies to give those workers what they originally went on strike for.  It really was a head scratcher because one of the best things Joe did as president in my eyes was when he bailed out the pension funds for the Teamsters.  Some on here will disagree with me here but all the banks and the airlines all got their government bailouts for what?  So, the CEOs could get their 20 mill bonus.  

    You have to wonder why Trump never invested with Madoff when every other dick and jane threw their life savings at that scumbag.  The teamsters retirement fund was lazy and put all their eggs in a madoff basket... and lost bigtime.  not Trump tho, he lost his money the old fashion way

    To get to the top in any business, in any industry you have to screw people over along the way.  Bernie Sanders is now trying to teach this to that bonehead prodigy AOC

    Trump creates these tariffs, which is gonna cost all of us with higher pirces, even all you magas and now trump wants walmart and companies to eat the cost. Wait a minute i thought the USA was a capitalist country with a free market of supply and demand that republicans believed in.  Now they want to control what companies charge and how much profit they should allowed to make. So the companies and all the shareholders of these companies should absorb trumps tariffs costs and not the maga morons who voted for higher prices. If walmarts profits go down, so does the value of the stock for stock holders.  Really come on magas tell me why a shareholder has to lose their money to pay for trumps tariffs.  Come on explain that to me in your maga way.

    Truth is republicans and the magas are in a cult they just cant seem to escape from and will accept anything their orange idol does to them.

    have you checked Walmart stock before this post? it's up $30 from last May.  yup was $64 5/17/24 and currently at $98.  should we even see what % profit that is??

    bad example, Walmart is printing money and that's why Trump called them out over the drama of tariffs that put their stockholders in jeopardy an_violin

    let's find another company that's down on hard times because it's not Walmart peace_5

    just looked back 5 years to 5/2020 and Walmart stock was $42 a share.  If you invested in Walmart at the beginning of covid shutdowns you more than doubled your $$

    No way you were ever a democrat, not the way you defend trumper every chance you get.  Show me where i wrote walmart was hurting for money?  Also i will be the first to say all the corporations are ripping us off and getting huge tax breaks to boot. My point was no President democrat or republican should be telling corporations what to do. Thats there business to run, not don the con.  Did any President tell don the con, how much he should sell his buildings for? or how much he charges at his golf courses. 

    If walmart is making huge bucks, thats what our capitalist country does but now all the republicans and magas want the companies to eat the tariff cost because of some very dumb businessman who couldnt even keep 1 casino open.  You really think some investor who owns a million shares of walmart stock, want to make less profits because some stupid ass president says so and because soup can thinks walmart as done pretty good and dont need to make bigger profits.  Well news flash for you, thats not for you or the President to decide.  The consumer decides if they want to keep shopping at walmart.  But warning a company not to raise prices and eat the cost, thats straight out of dictatorship 101.

    I know one thing, i gotta stop replying back to the posters who come here just to troll people and cause trouble. Would be great if covers had a block feature, then all the magas could have their own secret club where they discuss their undying love for the most corrupt President in our history.

    Soup Can question for you, only requires a yes or no answer thats it.  Should any President tell a corporation how much profit they should make. 

    I say no and i hate all these monster corporations.

    So when is trump gonna start having all the trump merchandise he sells made in the USA instead of china?  Their are awesome companies that could make all of his shit, especially the baseball caps.  Why does he have them made over seas then?  For bigger profits thats why.  Thats what i call a solid hypocrite, do as i say not as i do.

    Trump getting mad at bruce sprinsteen because the guy bashed him. Trump called the Boss a jerk and talent less.  Why exactly does trump play talent less bruces songs at his rallies, singing and dancing to them?  Once again cause hes a giant hypocrite.  Woulod love to see one time a maga call the orange douche out for being a hypocrite, but that will never happen. Trumpy had to stop playing those songs he hated so much, when he was ordered to stop Don the con always breaking laws

    Should any President tell a corporation how much profit they should make."

    NO

    Show me where i wrote walmart was hurting for money?   

    in post #1 it's the 5th word, so the basis of this thread is Trump/Walmart

    in post #16 "If walmarts profits go down, so does the value of the stock for stock holders."  

    I had to post the stock prices after reading this, there is nothing but upside for Walmart stockholders even with tariffs

    I was raised a moderate Democrat, I still have those beliefs so when a party changes, not all the voters are sheep to the change.  I will never blindly follow anyone which now makes me Independant.  Said it many a time I am not republican or Maga, but I am thrown into that category because I disagree with the nonsense the Dems are putting out.  If I can find any levelheaded Liberal who has substance of a post that doesn't have any TDS or just vial hate of anyone then I will praise that.  

    Everyone has to understand that every breath this man takes is put on notice, so in that meaning how many of us posting here could ever run for political office let lone president?  

    none of us can

    Trump isn't controlling Walmart by telling them to eat it just as Joe wasn't controlling gas stations by saying "Do it now". 

    And again, where's the threat? You just make shit up, tell others to shutup and crawl under a rock then complain there are troublemakers in the room.

    You know, I'm still on the fence about that. Although Joe got really slow I still have it in the back of my mind that playing stupid with Hur was a strategy the Biden team used. And it came too easy. Biden knew he had classified docs as he shared them with his book writer who destroyed the audio tapes. Betcha Biden was sharp in those audio tapes. And maybe some docs in those tapes were destroyed? And believe the Penn Center docs only became public because too many people knew, otherwise they would have been discretely removed. The whole thing smells.

    more maga bullshit from the guy who admits hes here to troll people.

    Yes he warned amazon and he has warned walmart.  If you dont understand what his warnings mean, then your living in a coma.  So please carry on with your troll answers on everything. Amazing how bezos got a call from trump and 30 minutes later he reversed the move amazon was gonna do.  Please tell me why exactly consumers shouldnt get to see how much they are paying for the traiffs on the products they are buying.  Come on spin master explain why we shouldnt see that?  Its because your orange idol doesnt want us to see that because he will become an even bigger fool. But hey keep defending this man on everything he does.
