Why would anyone believe in the economy? Federal workers are being fired, grants are being cancelled, private sector jobs will be affected. Not to mention tariffs and the rest of the world hates us and will not want to spend here. Confidence in this economy is in the sewer.
I’ve been watching Bloomberg and CNBC most of the day. The one word I haven’t heard is “boycott”. Just a bunch of nonsense about forward looking guidance and possible tariffs. Media is in lock-step with the Dump(ster) admin.
The maga zombies who sold their souls for a dozen eggs are in for a nasty surprise.
I couldn’t care less for their fate.
I don’t eat eggs lol.
Humans are so weak in the USA.
The Waltons do support Tibetan Art, which is cool.
I know this personally.
My local store is not bad…
Prefer Costco.
My neighborhood started a community garden, and drives to farms to pick up produce and meats for each other. Some of us are learning to love without excess. It’s a slow process with a lot of learning to do, but I’d rather drive 2 hours to next town over than step foot in Walmart again.
Walmart is the closest place for me to shop in my rural area, but I'll drive the extra miles to a business that isn't intimidated by the Trump/Musk cabal.
I am fully aware of the worst case scenario. I am choosing to believe that the American people won’t simply accept being taken over by a dictator forever. This will just lead to civil war.
Nah we’re just not shopping there because their values don’t align with ours. Plus the pharmacy there no longer works with Good RX making prescriptions much higher.
Uhm, maybe 86ing the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion as part of their protocol was a BAD idea. Along with prices not lowered, tariffs out the whazoooo, and we all know they pay their employees 💩‼️
I hope and pray that things go severely south for companies like Walmart, Target and others who kissed Trumps rear end and shelved all DEI policies. They are an embarrassment and I refuse to shop at these stores any longer.
Who gives a rats ass about Walmart! They supported Trump too. Now if ppl go elsewhere or don’t spend that’s on Trump! And FU CNN for being so weak and cowardly in all your framing of these stories
Perhaps as a media source, you could have seen this coming. Perhaps, you could have spoken about Project 2025. Perhaps, you could boycott White House Press Briefings and support the Associated Press. Headlines like this are what I expected with a dictatorship. Maybe you should have too.
Have you heard what is planned by the free people of the world on 28th February? This is led by the Canadians. Were possible people will avoid buying US-made products and services. This is true democracy and purchasing power. We now live in a Global economy. Think about it?
Unfortunately, Walmart makes their profits off the backs of their already impoverished employees. With WIC on Trump’s chopping block, their employees will be standing in line at the soup kitchens we’ll have to build soon.
We started with GreedFlation prices higher, smaller amounts for more money. What did they think would happen. As usual retail and manufacturers are always shortsighted, wanting more money now. Now people are afraid of what's coming financially to them. TrumpFlation, TrumpFascism!
The DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) Walmart did that to themselves.. Walmart stands with Trump and a lot of us stand with companies that acknowledge DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion)
I can attest to a dramatic change in mood the past couple of weeks. I am in travel. After the election magats were bragging and so optimistic. Now they are canceling trips or downgrading, and not boasting. It is going to be a bumpy ride.
No one has money to eat. Everyone is fired🤷 maga wants people to sell themselves & children out on street for money like sex tourism in Bangkok. Instead of the fleecing of America it's the whoring of America, return to slavery
Books on slavery never helped me get a job, stop job exploitation, stop consumer discrimination or stop racial abuse physical or mental. Just just gave books & had holidays & kept treating us like shit. No country has ever intervened 2 tried & stop the human rights abuses against us. Thanks a lot👎
Orange Julius threatening the whole world with idiotic tariffs will hurt Americans most of all. America’s trade with the countries of the world was why their economy was so amazing. Now China is moving in replacing America as the open economy ? Smart Donnie, jobs are next dummy
Is it the global reciprocal tarrifs, the 200k fired Federal workforce, or the destruction of the constitional powers of the underlying laws that govern all american commerce that's got the American consuer a little freaked out?
Slower sales at Walmart might hint at tightening consumer budgets. If even the retail giant is feeling the pinch, it raises concerns about overall spending power. Might be time for everyone to keep a closer eye on those wallets!
Didn’t Trump say in 2020 that if Joe Biden is elected that Biden will cause a recession, but it didn’t? Seems like karma since Trump is actually causing a recession.

Not 24hr news.
@cnn.com can fuck right off.
Either we have less Americans, Americans eat less, or costs are becoming prohibitive.
You know #1 and 2 aren't doing it. Hey #GOP, what happened to Trump fixing everything day 1?
Will you be next?
The people put this evil in power. Time to take responsibility and purge the poison.
We saw how this goes. History repeats when we don't learn the lesson.
Speak up & act out.
Here is one small way.
There will be a Depression era that rivals the previous one.
Not even Funderal Dir will profit since most won't have $ for those coffins
