Trump says China and Walmart should ‘eat the tariffs’ instead of raising prices
neutralWorld Affairs
** President Trump is pushing back against Walmart’s warning that new tariffs on Chinese goods could hike prices for everyday items like groceries and baby products. Instead of passing costs to consumers, he says China and Walmart should absorb the financial hit themselves—effectively telling them to "eat the tariffs."
What This Mean: ** This isn’t just about corporate bottom lines—it’s a direct shot in the ongoing trade war, with real consequences for shoppers. If Walmart (and other retailers) can’t swallow the tariffs, prices on basics could climb, squeezing household budgets. Trump’s stance signals he’s digging in, but the fallout might land in Americans’ carts.
