Trump calls Walmart ‘patriotic’ for cutting beef prices — in a stark change of tune
The president hasn’t always approved of Walmart’s moves, having criticized the chain’s response to tariffs last year
President Donald Trump on Monday said Walmart would cut prices for ground beef and other items, saying the move was made in response to a “request” from his administration and calling the retailer “patriotic” for doing so.
A separate price-cut announcement from the big-box chain on Monday did not mention the government. The prices announced in that release went into effect last week, a company representative said.
