Liberal elites often looked down on Walmart customers, and they picture the typical Walmart shopper as a white, working class person usually from a small town or rural area though this isn't really accurate. Walmart is popular among people from all walks of life in every place I've lived, I don't see it as a black or Hispanic dominated place. If anything, unassimilated Mexicans tend to go to their own Mexican stores, same with blacks in the black community.
As for guns, I don't understand how Walmart corporate actually thinks that the killer in El Paso, a mentally unstable individual, would have just turned around and changed his mind if there was a sign advertising Walmart as a gun free zone......
The Confederate Flag may have not been intended to be a pro-slavery or Jim Crow symbol but it has certainly become one! So, I do tend to associate with such!
If one is being honest they'd associate it with democrats.
Well, of course they do....but WalMart actually went Face-to-Face in Bentonville with their American suppliers and told them outright that they would not renew with them unless they went to Asia.
I've heard these stories personally as I deal with various invention and innovation groups where members sell to them.
The ole I was there so I have credibility on this issue. lol The timeline on all these personal experiences gained from different jobs you have done, doesn't pass the sniff test. Your next statement doesn't pass the sniff test either.

So it's different - AND, besides, this thread is about WalMart. WalMart (Sam) promised to source American whenever he could. They threw that out the door. They are the #1 importer in the USA of Chinese containers. They forced the BIG companies (Rubbermaid, for example) to move overseas so they could say you a few dollars.
Rubbermaid has not moved overseas. They have been using raw materials from other countries for a long time.
"Majority are made domestically in Mogadore, OH (all your ordinary food storage, buckets and pails); Winfield KS (sheds, carts), Winchester, VA (commercial mop stations, large dumpsters), Jackson, MO (wire and laminated shelving and racks). Some smaller/low volume parts are sourced overseas (Malaysia)."

Quit making things up.
I pointed that out earlier to this poster. Apparently the truth doesn’t fit their narrative at the moment. Such is the lie most Trumpers choose to live within.
