The purpose of tariffs is to encourage national production by making foreign stuff more expensive for the consumer
N-NO WALMART SHOULD NOT MAKE FOREIGN STUFF MORE EXPENSIVE FOR THE CONSUMER
Trump wants both the prices to stay the same so it doesn't look like the economy is getting worse, and foreign goods to magically be less attractive to the American people.

Time for the hecking Waltons to show American & America some hecking love... and a thank you for making the family billionaires
are you just realizing now that he is retarded?
I used to think there was at least some overarching strategy here in terms of incentivizing domestic manufacturing but now that's completely gone out the window it's all just bewildering.
It’s to put a 10 cent tax on everything
Is Trump retarded?
Incorrect, Trump wants tarriff revenue for the federal govt or to entice corporations to bring back manufacturing so they don't have to pay them. It is only you retards who have been demoralized and gaslit by democrats who think that the tarriffs HAVE to be paid by the consumer. Decades of burger flippers arguing for 20+ dollar and hour wages defended by democrats and lefties as having no effect on the price of a Bic Mac but now the cost of American wages are an insurmountable barrier that will result in $3000+ iphones. The same people that made billions selling you cheap shit assembled by slaves with built in expiration dates are now telling you that they'll be forced to charge more if they make it here in order to maintain their record profits and instead of arguing that they should take a profit hit, raise the quality to justify the new price or go out of business if they can't compete without free labor you instead fold like laundry and demand things go back to the good old days of Mcwages that can't afford rent so you cope by buying a bunch of cheap shit that breaks in a week. Pathetic.
Yes the heckin corporino should eat the tariffs as punishment for all their price gouging over the last few years and because it's better for their country in the long term.
redditor calling the kettle nigger
they should take a profit hit
The whole system of capitalism is based on profit making.
That is what incentivizes people to 'work' in capitalism.
Are you saying Trump is anti-capitalist?
I never want to hear Conservatives argue they're champions of the "Free Market" ever again. What you're both arguing for is more government overreach in the private sector. Trump has mindfucked his base into supporting far-left economic policies somehow.
Walmart has massive government contracts and Trump can pull them if they want to play political games against him.
Get those dimes first, if anything else happens that’s just gravy
it was a race with two retards, the bigger retard lost but we still elected a retard either way
Why shouldn't Walmart force their Chinese suppliers to pay the extra hurdle for their product to enter the US?
Its just an attitude thing to instead insist on the consumer or even company to pay it.
Change the attitude and people will think your crazy for demanding the consumer pays the tariffs. But bullying consumers/buyers is Always the way to go.
Walmart is free to make their product unaffordable and go out of business, or they can take a hit and learn to compete without slave labor.
That's how tariffs usually go actually. In most cases the supply chain eats the losses to maintain market share. You can look up studies on tariffs you know.
You are a communist. Wal Mart is a job creator
It is good to enslave foreigners you leftist cuck
For who? Visajeets and niggers? Serve Americans or die.
It's not 1880 anymore, tariffs don't work.
Do Indians shit in the street?
There's nothing but whites employed at my small, local Wal Mart. Why do you hate white people?
You local walmart at Eglin? Doubtful.
Today’s Psyop and Kosher Think Tank Talking Point: Trump Tariffs and Leftists Defending Walmart.
Looking at this psy-op and all the others which are the vast majority of this place now. You can just feel the hand rubbers, cat ladies and faggots in the think tanks behind these psy-ops. They don’t know or understand their propaganda target audience, there’s a sneering character behind all of it where the people creating it project that they’re above you and they project they think you’re stupid. While this propaganda is lazy and retarded created by system raised low functioning psychological robots in academia who can’t creatively think outside of the box and have no idea what’s outside their psychological and societal prisons.

Typical leftist, can't argue with facts and logic or even answer a simple question
That's because blacks and browns get government gibs. White people are the ideal demographic for slave labor. It's the primary purpose of anti-white retroic and humilation rituals. Whites either check out and live on the streets, or work slave wages for McSheklestein until they're 80.
Yes. Democrats are more right-wing than MAGA bolshevik proletarian now.
He says while parroting leftist rhetoric like the idea that you can't find new and better jobs. If you gave a single shit about white people you would support reindustrialization 100% and stop sucking walshart's jewish cock.
Nothing is more retarded than /ptg/niggers pretending they care about slavery now
I'm not supporting Trump's tariffs, but I must say blaming Trump for higher prices when they didn't blame Bidenflation is clearly political on Walmart's end.
They're throwing shade at Trump when they didn't throw shade at Biden. Only one excuse for that.
Also, fuck Walmart. I hope Amazon and Temu eventually put them out of business. They deserve a taste of their own poison.
I remember that American farmers are hit hardest by the tariffs and immigration thing but that they think it's worth it because in the end it will benefit them.
So Trump is angry because he thinks Walmart isn't showing loyalty, not because he thinks this is going to be a problem.
Working is slavery
My god you communist cucks truly are just fucking lazy lmao
Nooooo you can't just work for a small business like Wal Mart you gotta move to cali and work for a tech giant!!!
No way in hell, cuck
He's leftist, so yes.
small business like Wal Mart
Eglin your bot is malfunctioning
If Trump is going to start biting at corporations for being greedy, I think that'd be funny. Will TDS reign supreme anyway?
Both parties spend like drunken sailors, Republicans only really comment on keeping government spending low, otherwise financing goals are uniparty and everyday Joe don't get a cut.
If anything, Trump is possibly trying to shift the burden of costs and tax payments to corporations while cutting government spending to show fiscal responsibility to encourage their compliance. After all, American corporations love America, right? You do want to make America great again by leaving an already destitute and depressed American consumer alone, right?
Pretty smart question that I've never seen anyone ask, why should Americans pay the tariffs? Why not the corporations? They made their wealth from people spending money at their stores, right? They can afford to suffer way better than the average American even if costs are higher. The reality probably won't be as peachy as I'd like, but it's unbelievably entertaining that the president of the US told the FEMA camp warehouses to eat tariffs that they probably never wanted.
He'll be watching.
Based Chinamen exposed the scam Globohomo corps have been pulling. That pair of Nike shoes sewn in China cost 5 bucks, they sell those Nike shows to niggers in the USA for 500 bucks. Globohomo corps are absolutely raping us and the sociopath jews in charge should be buckbroken. Luckily Trump has a MASSIVE ego so he'll choke the oligarchs where neolib "socialists" did nothing but give more failouts to Wall Street
How are they not a family run small business?
Yes, tariffs can be offset by anyone throughout the chain.
For decades Wal*Mart fucked smaller suppliers and American supplies, and all suppliers by forcing them to lower their prices or they were out.
Generally this fucked American companies.
Now China is their main supplier.
They still do it to them, but no one undercuts them, so shit stays in China.
Now INSTEAD of doing what they ALWAYS do, and push for the supplier to eat the cost...
instead... on behalf of CHYYYYNNNAAA....
They told Trump to remove the tariffs.
He rightly told them to FUCK OFF
Walmart is CHINA FIRST
The gall to not even do what you always do in order to suck China's dick and fuck America showcases the WalMart is fucking trash

We've all been taking a hit since covid being sucked dry while corporations like walmart experience exponential growth. They SHOULD swallow the tariff.
Why do people think corporations get to continue growing while the rest of the population is forced to shrink? We're all racing towards the bottom while they race towards the top. How about they at least compromise with no growth for a while.
