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?

I hope he blows out an Artery.
Quick Death, no one to Blame. Just Gone.

Ignominy in Death.

Any Takers?

How is this different than hundreds (if not thousands) of lies previously exposed, told by that revolting POS?

Trump "Executive Time" explained: Lie, sleep, lie, eat, lie, sleep, lie, ----, lie, sleep-----, rinse and repeat until nap time.

"Great news! I have just been informed that one of the biggest retailers in America, Best Buy, will be having a Black Friday sale this year! And as I promised, gas prices are down 1,600%. You're welcome! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

I think that was for his first term only.
I believe it's up to 39 lies a day now during his second term.

And .. according to the New York Times Obama was untruthful 18 times.
Not 18 a day.
18 times total.

"18 times total."
Mark of a weak leader!

If Trump ever told the truth, the whole truth, so help him Zeus, he'd spontaneously combust. I suppose that's why he lies all the time.

He's such a worthless bastard. Ain't worth a pot to piss in.

Trump takes credit for price cuts he had nothing to do with?
Like gas prices?
No wait ... ... he is a communist for that.
He's just a shameless shill all the other times he takes credit for proving he has nothing to do with.
