In Trump’s America, Walmart Pays Their Workers a Decent Rate

Day by day, the evidence that President Donald Trump is living up to his prediction that he would be the “greatest jobs president” in history is growing stronger and stronger. Since the first day of his administration, he has put lie to the idea that it would be a mistake to put a successful businessman in the White House, just as we knew he would. Unemployment rates are the lowest they’ve been in years, companies are slowly but surely moving their operations back to the United States, and the recently-passed tax reform bill is already having an enormous impact on the economy. Oh, and did we forget to mention it: Wall Street is seeing some of the biggest numbers its ever seen.

Things are looking bright, and they’re about to get a whole lot brighter for employees of the nation’s largest retailer.

Walmart announced this week that they would be increasing the starting wage rate for all new associates to $11 an hour. Additionally, the company said they would be expanding maternity leave benefits and handing out a cash bonus of up to $1,000 to many of their hourly associates. “The company is also creating a new benefit to assist associates with adoption expenses,” Walmart said in a press release. “The combined wage and benefit changes with benefit the company’s more than one million U.S. hourly associates.”

In a statement conveying the new initiatives, Walmart president and CEO Doug McMillon left no question as to why his company was making these moves.

“We are early in the stages of assessing the opportunities tax reform creates for us to invest in our customers and associates and to further strengthen our business, all of which should benefit our shareholders,” McMillon said. “However, some guiding themes are clear and consistent with how we’ve been investing — lower prices for customers, better wages and training for associates and investments in the future of our company, including in technology. Tax reform gives us the opportunity to be more competitive globally and to accelerate plans for the U.S.”

We don’t care if Robert Mueller proves that Trump and Putin took a 7-day Caribbean cruise together in the middle of the 2016 campaign; if Republicans can run on a winning economy that voters can feel in their household budgets…there’s no stopping the Trump Train. As James Carville said so long ago, it’s the economy, stupid. So far, every indication has it that Trump is going to do what Obama couldn’t – bring us all the way back from the recession…and maybe well beyond.

    We needed a successful business to encourage our economy to grow. Also, a person that wasn’t an insider, plus couldn’t be “bought.”
    If this POTUS can’t bring America, as I knew it, back, it can’t be done. I just hope our government hasn’t brought us too far down for him to do that before the next elections at the end of 2018. Then in 2020, another Democratic president could take away our momentum.
    So, we aren’t home free yet, but I am believing!

    Just imagine what could be accomplished if the entire Republican congress would support President Trump. We know the Marxist democrats hate America and will never take action to actually help the country. They haven’t in decades.

    Finally, we have a president in the mold of president Reagan. NOT LIKE THAT ‘COMMUNITY ORGANIZER’, THAT BANKRUPTED OUR
    CHILDREN. I WONDER IF THOSE FOOLS WHO VOTED FOR THE ONE WHO WOULD MAKE THE OCEAN RISE. TWO TIME LOSERS. DID ANYONE LEAVE
    AS PROMISED?. LET ME SEE, FAT SLOB ROSIE, ETC.

    Time for Congress to just ignore the Democraps and just get things done. Who cares about getting along with the Democraps. We need to do what they did just ram everything through. That would happen if it wasn’t for the spineless RINOS in Congress.
    Trump needs to not sign DACA back in. Get the border secured and enforce the laws that keeps people from overstaying their VISAS.
    Now for the DACA recipients that’s serving in our military, and there’s only about 900. They should be allowed to to get legal status and be the first to get citizenship. I believe they’ve earned it. All the others need to go back and do it the right way.

      Republicans have ignored & defied the Democrats consistently for years. The problem for them occurs when the Republicans disagree amongst themselves about what to do, such as when the Conservative Caucus insists on one thing & moderate Republicans want something else, or when a bill requires 60 votes in the Senate for passage. Then they need votes from Democrats, & that requires the art of persuasion & finesse that politicians these days aren’t accustomed to doing.

    In Trump’s America Walmart also closed 63 Sam’s Clubs and cut 10,000 jobs on the same day? Was this also what Trump predicted?

      How many good paying jobs did you ne-gro create? All he did was add regulations to strangle growth.
      I’ll remind you of his GDP.

      We have the final nail in the coffin of President Obama’s economic reign. Not only is the average annual growth rate of just 1.48% during Obama’s business cycle the weakest of any expansion since at least 1949, he has just become the only President to have not had even one year of 3% GDP growth.

      An average annual GDP growth of 1.48% during Obama’s two terms.

      Sam’s club was a loser business being put out of business by amazon and on line ordering. Sam’s club was against on line ordering and that was their down fall. Walmart is expanding while it closes a lot of Sam’s clubs and keeping others for warehousing and distribution. plans that were under way during Obama’s rein of terror on our economy.

      Maybe those stores were in bad areas and not doing so good. Maybe the area was full of crime and violence . Everything is not Trumps fault. The democrats were against any tax cut. But most people even if they know they are wrong still think they are right. Even if they have never studied American history they still think they know it all. I don’t know it all and I don’t want to know it all but I know enough to see Trump is doing the best he can and He is making good on most of His promises.

    Hell of a lot easier to pay a sub-standard wage when you cut thousands of jobs. Notice you failed to report that little nugget, and none of Trump’s supporters seem to want to acknowledge it. Hmm…wonder why?

    • dpg01 January 13, 2018 at 3:50 pm Reply

      The decision to close the stores was probably made during the long brutally failed obama imposter presidency. It takes much planning and agonizing to do so. The wage increase given due to the tax cut our Great President Trump managed to get done would be easily arrived at with a simple calculator.

        Yeah, I’m sure that’s EXACTLY the way it all went down…

      GW62, when I started work it was 40 cents/hr., and since many have few skills or knowledge, even $9 was a good hourly rate along with other benefits offered by Walmart. Get informed.

        You need to go work there for a while. Thank God you don’t decide what I make at Walmart. I don’t care what you do for a living I am just glad I don’t know you.

    Paying $11.00 per hr. for jobs that a monkey can do isn’t the answer pay them the entry level rate and offer them skill training so they can justify higher wages.

    • CRLH January 13, 2018 at 9:38 pm Reply

      jim, the employees have opportunities that other stores do not offer. And a monkey really couldn’t do their job, so I guess you could not do the job either.

      We had a monkey for President for 8 years and he fu–ked up everything.

    I shopped at local Super Walmart and employees are stunned, especially those who have many years working in Walmart. One is going to use whatever bonus she gets to take family on a good vacation, and others are still wondering if it is really true. Walmart has been a good store to work with as to possibilities or rising in positions, and other benefits.

    My sil works for Walmart – has for about ten years. They may have given a new starting wage of $11 an hour to new hires but they haven’t done anything for long term employees. She’s making the same as some 18 year old who can’t open a cash register yet.

  10. Gene Moser January 18, 2018 at 1:45 pm Reply

    New hires now come in at $11 an hour. My SIL has worked for Walmart for some ten years and gets $11 an hour. Is that fair?

    WE AMERICANS MUST FORCE TRUMP TO REMOVE ALL 40 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS FROM THIS COUNTRY BEFORE THE NEXT ELKECTION BECAUSE 6-8 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS VOTED IN THE 2016 ELECTION AND IF YOU DON’T BELIEVE THIS THEN WHY DID OVER 30 STATES NOT LET THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION AUDIT THE VOTING RECORDS THAT WOULD PROVE IT ???????? IF THE NEW COMMUNIST PARTY FORMERLY DEMO-RATS GET BACK IN POWER THE CONSTITUTION AND BILL OF RIGHTS WILL DISAPPEAR AND SOCIALISM/COMMUNISM WILL BE THE LAW OF THE LAND AND SO WILL SHARIA LAW BY THE MUSLIM CULT (NOT A RELIGION) ANY GROUP OF PEOPLE THAT WORSHIP A BOOK THAT TEACHES IT CHILDREN THAT ITS OK TO LIE TO THE INFIDEL AND IF THEY DO NOT CONVERT TO ISLAM SMOTE THEM IN THE NECK, THAT MY FRIENDS IS NOT A RELIGION ITS A CULT OF HATE AND DECEIT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I work at Walmart, there’s things that Wal-Mart has done and they haven’t told people about. In 2016 they took away our paid holidays and vacations. Last year they raised the hourly wage up to 10.00 dollars an hour, but only for the new hires giving them more money an hour than some that had been there for a couple years. Also I heard they were going to have the department managers work another department. [ For years department managers had to help in other departments.] I guess maybe they’ll have to work more than one department on a regular basis? They’re doing away with zone manager position.Wal-Mart is part of the satanic agenda, thats why they’ve been doing what they have. Trump has’t done any of this the satanist have. [The demoncraps, ect, ect. Walmart puts such a work load on the workers, it’s mind boggling, Oh I forgot to mention in 2016 when they gave the new hires the most money, they cut our raise per year to less than half for every year, I thought they’ll save a lot of money on that alone.GOD said you reap what you sew, so just keep sewing good seeds, because eventually they’ll all return to you.

    Oh boy hope you enjoy the crazy down turn coming your way in a couple of years after all the deregulating and destruction of safe guards put in place to prevent another 2008 downturn. president shithole trump and his repug politicians are doing the same thing Bush did during his time in office. And once those crazy interest rates start rising lots of Americans will lose their jobs and homes etc. Won’t that be fun. Yup enjoy the downhill crash coming your way.
