tRUMP’s insane tariffs benefit NO ONE but hurt American consumers

CNN reports:

“Walmart said on April 15 it would increase prices because Trump’s tariffs were “too high,” particularly when it came to products made in China.

“We will do our best to keep our prices as low as possible. But given the magnitude of the tariffs, even at the reduced levels announced this week, we aren’t able to absorb all the pressure given the reality of narrow retail margins,” Walmart CEO Douglas McMillon said in an earnings call.

Price changes at Walmart will likely take effect by the end of May and prices will increase “much more” in June, the company’s chief financial officer John David Rainey, told CNBC.”

For the last few months Trump supporters have been saying prices haven’t gone up in their area. And maybe that is so but only because stores were selling their old stock
But I think that is about to change – Walmart probably has stores in every state in the US - so all Americans will be seeing big price increases thanks to Trump. Cheers!

To be sure, honest people will suffer, but there will be plenty of opportunities for collaborators with means to profit.
