The lie...
"When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on day one. We will drill, baby, drill. That’s going to bring down prices of everything!" ~Donald Trump
"When I take office, I will swiftly reduce prices starting from day one." ~Donald Trump
The reality...
"Walmart and Target workers are sharing pics of price increases amid Trump’s trade war."
"I've been doing price change everyday for the past four months or so, and seeing everything going up all at once is really making me sad," said a Target worker in late May.
"I just feel terrible putting all these ridiculously high prices up."
"What the actual F?" posted one Walmart worker, alongside a screenshot showing 5,000 price changes that day alone. Another worker responded wryly: "Slow day?"
"I work in Toys and we had about 600 price changes in the last couple days, EVERYTHING went up."
"Most things went up $4, but the bigger toys like RCs and hover boards jumped a whole $40-50. It's f***ing crazy."
"Kevin Cook, a Virginia-based tech entrepreneur and Walmart customer, likewise said that a doll he bought for his daughter had gone up 42% from $59 to $84 since he bought it."
"Other examples reported by Business Insider and Buzzfeed News, posted by both workers and customers, showed a dinosaur toy rising 38% from $39.92 to $55;
a fishing reel jumping 45% from $57.37 to $83.26; a tablet computer climbing 23% from $79 to $97; and a roll of tape more than doubling from $4.24 to $9.94."
Promises made...promises broken...and the MAGAs cheer!
