Now that Toys R Us" is closing down for good, should we blame Trump too ? 🎁 Maybe. Toys R Us us...

It sucks and it's a loss with these stores but you nailed it. They can't compete with ease of online shopping of Amazon and the like or the prices of Wal-mart and such.

Not sure kids are more mentally stimulated though. Not by smart phones and tablets anyway. Not as much as by toys.

The laws/rules allowing venture capitalists to saddle the company they're buying with the loan debt they've taken on for said purchase is what kills businesses already on the edge like Toys'R Us.

Don’t you know that everything that goes wrong is Trump’s fault even the things that happened before his presidency. Lol

kids will not be able to enjoy their parents taking them to toys are us anymore. i loved being taken to toys are us. the local talk radio show host talks about how generations of parents took their kids to toys are us. now the next generations of kids wont be able to experience it as the money hoarders closed it down. they shut down business after business. they shut the factories and told us that we don't need factories that we all can work in retail stores and fast food stores selling stuff to each other. now they are closing the retail and fast food stores so there will be no jobs at all. the hoovervilles will keep growing and growing .

Thanks Obama.

no. the kids are just not interested in toys like they use to be. and they cant compete with online retail. it was more expense to shop there than else where. they have been going down hill for a long time other toys stores have already gone out of business, it was just a matter of time before they followed suit.

Did you know that only does Toys R Us own a toy store for now, but they also own the largest ambulance service across USA, and they are privately selling that as well?
Who's to blame for the ambulances, and what's the excuse?

Toys weRe Us...Same here in the UK. They were not only competing with the online retailers but other non-specialist outlets such as supermarkets, which these days sell everything from Tiggers to TVs.

Much as I detest and distrust Trump I don't think you can lay the failure of Toys r Us on him . It's down to the managements failure to adapt to the changing nature of modern retailing

I can’t believe they’re closing

Toy R Us founder is now literally dead. He passed away today.

Amazon has made it too easy to shop any other way for most things. Reviews, previews, user photos, deals and in-depth information.

And thanks, Obama.

I am sure someone will find a way. It was also Trump' s fault that not everyone got to see the eclipse 🙄....silliness

I wouldn't blame Trump. Wal-Mart has been kicking their butts for some time.
