    Their costs go up because of the tariffs, he can’t expect them to lose profit at scale just to appease him. It would be a super bad business decision on Walmarts side if they do that.

      They literally can’t without getting sued by investors. Look at United Healthcare - they’re getting sued for lost profits because they couldn’t deny more claims after Luigi.

      I’ll be shocked if Walmart choses to “eat the cost” for tariffs.

      They don’t “eat the cost” so their employees don’t need food stamps, a program also on the chopping block. If they gut medicate/medicaid the Walmart pharmacy will also definitely feel that loss.
