Trump Says Walmart Will Lower Prices on Many Products
Trump said Walmart will lower grocery prices at his administration’s request, including nearly 15% on ground beef, as affordability remains a top voter concern.
- On Monday, President Donald Trump announced that Walmart will lower grocery prices following an administration request to celebrate the U.S.' 250th anniversary, with customers seeing savings on meat, produce, and soda.
- Trump previously criticized Walmart for "blaming" his trade policies, urging the company in May 2025 to "EAT THE TARIFFS" rather than raising prices for consumers.
- Walmart said one pound of 73% ground beef will drop to $5.94 from $6.74, a decline of about 12%; Sam's Club Member's Mark 88/12 ground beef decreases 3% to $5.97 per pound.
- Trump praised Walmart on Truth Social as "stepping up in a big and bold way," urging other Retailers to follow, while linking the move to his broader efforts lowering gas and prescription drug prices.
- Affordability remains a major issue for voters heading into the 2026 midterms, with inflation at a 3-year high and official data showing ground beef prices about 70% higher than January 2021.
