White House Rages After Embarrassing Trump Story Exposed

[Zorro]

The White House has gone into full defense mode after Donald Trump was found taking credit for price cuts that had nothing to do with him.

On Monday, the 80-year-old president posted on Truth Social that Walmart would be “lowering prices, by a lot, at my Administration’s request,” including cutting the cost of beef by 15 percent as part of the country’s 250th birthday celebrations.

Trump took a victory lap, praising the announcement as a “huge deal” for millions of Americans suffering through a cost-of-living crisis. The president’s second term has been dogged by high food prices, despite Trump making lowering them a central pledge of his 2024 campaign.

However, a Walmart spokesperson told The Bulwark that the company’s price cuts had already been in place at its stores for a week before Trump tried to suggest he had convinced the country’s biggest retailer to implement them.

[Buddyzbuddy]

3. All I have to say is, OCTOGENARIAN! 80 is too specific.

Just a thought. Even better, the demented octogenarian Rapist accused minor fetishist predator.

4. You know when you're having a horrible cold and can't sleep, coughing...

5. '...cutting the cost of beef by 15 percent as part of the country's 250th birthday celebrations'

Or in reality, as part of the 4th of July weekend specials they have EVERY YEAR.

He did the same thing last Thanksgiving, and in addition to being cheaper he didn't mention their customary Thanksgiving dinner special also contained disproportionately fewer items than the year before.

6. Yah, but I'm paying 50 cents more per gallon today than 3 days ago

Walmart will be increasing their prices again real soon.

I can't wait to pop that cork and guzzle that champagne.
Lets go Barry!

7. "Donald Trump was found taking credit for price cuts that had nothing to do with him."

He HAS to take credit for things that have nothing to do with him. He hasn't done a single thing for which he could be credited.

[Dr. T]

8. Will the main stream media notice?

Maybe. Will they report it? Not a chance.

Same with Dimwit Donnie's glaring gaffes during the NATO meeting. MSM treated them like they never happened. Sanewashing. Lying through ommision.

[NoMoreRepugs]

9. Whatever he says the MAGATS and FauxSnooze will parrot. They've created

an alternate reality that the the rest of us have to cope with.

[mdbl]

11. Most of them are now paid not to notice.

[OldBaldy1701E]

12. Well, taking victory laps for things that one did not have much to do with is a common occurrence here in the US.

So, what else is new, indeed.

[FakeNoose]

14. So you say, but I don't remember Obama or Biden ever doing such a thing

[JohnnyRingo]

13. ...and Dollar General has a buy four bottles of Mt Dew for $6 deal!

Thank you Mr. President. That would never have happened without your leadership. hahaha

[Qutzupalotl]

16. Let the gullible believe Trump controls prices.

They’ll blame him when they rise again.

In truth, he does control them to an extent—raising prices via tariffs, incompetence, and starting unnecessary wars.

[Wonder Why]

17. Does that mean that he didn't win WW2?

[Martin68]

18. We already know this is what Trump does every time, and we also know his supporters won't care.

[live love laugh]

19. I can't believe Walmart didn't cover for him the way Republicans subsidize Walmart minimum wages.
