Jill Biden: Companies Are Lowering Prices Due to Market and Because Joe Told Them to
Breitbart ^ | 05/30/2024 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 05/30/2024 6:27:54 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Wednesday’s broadcast of ABC’s “The View,” First Lady Jill Biden argued that companies like Target and Walmart are lowering prices because President Joe Biden told them to and he’ll continue to tell CEOs to lower their prices, but also stated that other companies like McDonald’s brought down their prices because “they’re responding to you” the customer, but “We can’t have this corporate greed.”

Biden said, “[I]t’s what Joe is doing. So, you’re right, inflation is down. But recently, he’s been meeting with CEOs of the major companies like Target and Walmart and grocery stores to say, you have to bring down these prices, and they’ve responded. They’ve responded, yes, it was just in The New York Times last week. So, he’s going to continue doing this, talking to CEOs, and, look, you probably heard last week, the head of McDonald’s said, we’re going to bring the prices down on the meals, and then, I think it was Burger King that said, okay, we’re going to do it too, because they’re responding to you. We can’t have this corporate greed. We have to get control of it. And so, Joe is working on that every single day, Joy, every day.”

Corporations and Government are in bed together. It’s all Kabuki Theater.

So, was Biden actually the one meeting with them, or was it perhaps Merrick Garland, sharing with the CEOs that he knew where their skeletons were buried?

Who are we to argue with a doctor?

Ever since the court case appeared that had a CoVID patient respond to IVM (ivermectin), denied further IVM by hospital, patient resumes dying; family gets 2nd Rx for IVM, patient recovers, hospital denies further IVM, patient dies. Was posted here at FR with 'Ivermectin' in the title. Well, since then, I have NO respect because someone is a 'physician' or 'Dr.'. The medical 'profession' is no longer. It has become a 'killing field' under Biden.

But recently, he’s been meeting with CEOs of the major companies like Target and Walmart and grocery stores to say, you have to bring down these prices, and they’ve responded.

I'm pretty sure SOMEBODY has talked with Walmart - they've been taking a few items and marking them down a SMALL bit and then puting "Lower Price" stickers up (in many aisles of the grocery part). But it's not enough and not even back down to levels where they were before that idiot FJB was installed.

If Circus Tent Jill said this, then yeah, probably did 'talk' to them. As in, "We'll hound you and sue you and charge you with every crime we can if you don't and make sure the public sees you lowering them because of me."

Obama was bad, but this putz and his beach bunny wife take the cake. No class, no finesse, no competency and no clue. Just the mad obsession to stay in power at any cost.

I think they’ve been scheduled for June and they are only lasting for a short time. This will just be a campaign prop for Joe Biden. “He’s taking on the Evil Corporations”

If you want clear ice cubes, you must have hot water fed in, not cold.

P.S. Hot water also freezes faster than cold water.

Jill wants as much of the gravy train as she can get before Joe croaks. Then again, leftists live a long time. She might be disappointed.

Yeah.... Jill knows prices at Walmart, Target, and McDonals because she shops there so frequently....

I will bet that upholstered chomo enabling adulteress has never stepped foot in a Walmart, let alone eaten at McDonalds.

What does she even mean when she says Walmart Target are lowering prices? Did everything they sell suddenly get reduced? Obviously not. What is she even talking about?

If Walmart etc. are lowering prices of some things, it’s because those things aren’t selling so they are forced to lower them. If lots of things aren’t selling it suggests we are going into a recession.
