President Donald Trump said Saturday that Walmart should “eat tariffs” rather than condemn the obligations imposed by his managers on imports due to increased retailers’ prices.

Specialized outdoor retailer REI Co-op is set to continue expanding across the US, with plans to open three new stores by the end of summer.
The location offers outdoor recreational gear and apparel, as well as a full-service bicycle shop. According to a press release that first announced the location, the shops in cold weather have seasonal skiing and snowboarding shops.
The location has been chosen as a city near the outdoor recreational landmark, Vice President of REI’s Stores Mary-Farrell Tarbox said in a press release.
“City with new stores represents a community that serves as a gateway to some of the country’s most incredible natural locations, and our members are places that they currently live or love to play outside,” says Tarbox.
