Trump's taking credit for Walmart's price cuts. There's just one problem: Walmart is telling a very different story.

What WalMart doesn't understand is that no matter the actual facts now that the Anti-President has claimed credit his followers immediately believe it unquestioningly.

... . 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. ...

I wonder when, instead of taking false credit for what others do, Pres Trump will start taking true credit [blame?] for his own failures?

Idiots like lfthndcuck and fartfisher will act like Trump did it anyway.

Pseudo intellectual idiots like pedoringer will say while it wasn't at the request of Trump, it was because of his policies because *eh*.

Both groups will give credit where credit isn't due with different levels of cultish devotion.

"...lowering prices, by a lot, at my junta's request" sounds like socialism, not capitalism.

We're all glad that Dummkopf Trumpf is finally learning from NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D), the jagged pebble in the Republican Party and AIPAC's shoe.

"Ouch! Melanoma! Help me out of my compression socks and get this rock outta my foot! Gargh!"

"Do it yourself, Diaper Boy! Blech!"

Serious question: How many hours in an average day does Trump spend raging?
