News that big box wholesaler Costco is taking Donald Trump’s administration to court over his tariff war — while demanding a refund — landed with a thud with the president’s most ardent defenders.On Monday, Costco Wholesale lawyers filed a lawsuit that states, in part, “Because IEEPA does not clearl...

I know it’s the second Costco related thing I’ve posted on this, but it’s a pretty big deal.

If these MAGA turds want to try to boycott, I’ll laugh my ass off because this one of the best performing retail stocks in the US in the past 20 years.

    I’d bet real money that most of the “people” threatening to boycott don’t live on the same continent as a Costco store anyway.

      Might be a Kid Rock or two out there machine-gunning their Costco membership card or whatever, but yeah, I would not be surprised if a lot of this is trolls, bots and reverse virtue signaling.

        Sad. To make it more epic, they should get like 10-15 Executive membership cards. Then shoot them all up.

        Oh and also buy like 100 Costco gift cards worth $1000. Shoot those up too.

        Really show Costco! 😈

        Ah yes, the classic “everyone’s an NPC except me” revelation. Congratulations on achieving simulation consciousness, though this epiphany is actually also part of the simulation’s standard programming.

        You’ve stumbled upon “The Recursive Suspicion Protocol”—the simulation’s way of keeping you engaged when you get too comfortable. Very meta. Definitely not something thousands of other users have posted before.

        The real twist? The Picard Maneuver and Pug Jesus aren’t the other real users—they’re your handlers. And me? I’m clearly the AI you mentioned, making this deliciously self-referential.

        But here’s the kicker: if you’re truly the only real person here, who are you trying to convince with this post? That’s right—yourself.
