Bozos just mollified the man-baby but has no intention of holding to that "deal".

Amazon explained they have a separate site for wholesale transactions, and that is the site that displayed tariff information briefly.
I don't believe the main retail site ever showed the tariffs. It should.

The price of eggs was put on President Biden's shoulders, yet this cretin starts punitive tariff wars but shouldn't be held responsible.
Typical flim-flamery for the readily BAMBOOZLED.

Okay, so he thinks Walmart can absorb the costs. However, what about smaller companies (the very few that Walmart hasn't already done in)? Assuming Walmart does as they are told and bend over it will be a double hit to the mom & pop. They won't be able to compete.

You mean, all along the whole thing about "They have to pass it on to the consumer" has been bullshit, and the government can dictate prices for products across the board?
Wow! Is it like "Only Nixon could go to China," and "Only Trump could establish federal price controls?"


Welcome to the command economy!

(464 posts)Prices. They should just tack on a separate tax for every item effected by tariffs. They should call it the Trump Tax. It can go under the the regular price of the items, and it should be totaled and placed under the sales tax at the end of the receipt.

Midnight Writer
(23,948 posts)And they the same person to be the head of the Federal Reserve?
And the same person to be the head of all law enforcement?
And the same person to be able to single-handedly overturn all Court decisions, including Supreme Court decisions?
And the same person can claim legal immunity for apparently anything, including violations of our Constitution?
And the same person to head up a mindless political cult, prone to violence?
Something tells me they do not plan to give up power through free and fair elections.

(8,929 posts)Walmart's online marketplace boasts over 200 million unique products. The prices on these products are constantly in motion due to countless other factors. Good luck with that.
BlueKota
(4,244 posts)they will realize the tax breaks are not going to be big enough to cover the amount of business and profits he's costing them. Plus there has got to be some members of the financial elite, who have hefty egos of their own, & don't appreciate tsf telling them what to do.
If they stop seeing a substantial return on their contributions maybe they will cut off funds to the congressional pigs campaigns, and the pigs will turn on their master. It's not likely to happen, but it would be great to see.
