They might as well bring out some Bronzo spokescreature to literally give the finger to the part of his base that actually thought he was going to give them cheap eggs.
Because, what are they going to do about it?
But I was told by dumbass “conservatives” that having a phone (or a TV or whatever electronic pos) meant historic levels of wealth and income inequality were A-OK. Surely, those people couldn’t have been just lying to me…on the Internet. Who would do such a thing?
The largest private employer in the United States is Wal-Mart. I can assure you that cheap prices are 100% part of the American dream.
And it’s a dream because you have to be asleep to believe it. Walmart loves running anyone else out of town by keeping price slow and the store as unprofitable until no competition is around. Then after that’s out they’ll raise prices because the fuck you gonna do about it?
Same company that has training for its workers on how to apply for food stamps.
Agree to disagree, but they most definitely were a part of his campaign promises.
This is insane. They could have kept playing MAGA like a fiddle, but he had to open his mouth. The people who believe in trump, that I have interacted with, think that low prices are part of the plan that will happen alongside the racism. I am expecting orange boy to say the secretary didn’t actually mean that.
It just indicates that Trump doesn’t care what they think any more. He’s no longer trying to please voters. They have done their job and where he’s taking the USA, there won’t be voters. Besides, he knows they’ll always be with him when it comes to hurting people they don’t like. Expensive eggs won’t change their bigotry.
But it will disenfranchise all the people who voted for him because “cheaper eggs”. Like I was saying, those people thought it was in the plan until the secretary put that out. People are currently suffering because of the cost of living, hearing that quote will be a direct slap in their face after selling their morals for cheaper goods. We still have yet to see the damage/damage control.
The media will successfully deflect blame away from Trump’s government. These people are eager to believe any story except that they’ve been hoodwinked.
Didn’t Elon already tweet that Joe Biden ordered 150 million chickens to be killed in order to raise egg prices?
These people have the memory of a goldfish, they’ll buy it.
I am not really talking about the fanatics. Nothing that happens will sway their faith in their god king.
Trump never said he would lower prices. Trump has always said higher prices are better. Oceania has always been at war with Eurasia.
But it is what people believe.

Don’t worry, they’ll just move the goalposts for him when he can’t lower prices and starts saying this too.
So how are those eggs doing? - a concerned Canadian
My girls lay them faster than we can eat them, so we give them away for free because fuck charging for food.
We have neighbors that do the same. We’ve had to re-gift a few or redirect them to other neighbors, because we don’t eat very many eggs at all. It’s certainly a nice gesture, though.
Legend.
I can’t wait we solve world hunger permanently.
About $9/dozen where I am, if there are any even left on the shelf.
I know some other regions of the US are already over $1/egg.
About 11 dollars usd for 18 eggs in WA for me which is prob around 14 ish CAD
Edit: oops they’re actually 18 count which is not a dozen
And to think, the Boston Tea Party was over the modern equivalent of a $1.40 per pound tax on tea.
Cost of tea had very little to do with the Boston Tea Party.
After taxes on the tea were applied it was still the cheapest tea had ever been in the colonies
Then higher salaries are. What’s he doing about that? Nothing. His American dream is using you as a foot rest while you kneel on all fours.
You have to be able to afford the American Dream if you want a piece.
These MAGA people that believe America needs to be building, making, and growing its own products are so hypocritical. They say this as they buy products from all over the world.
Also as their Lord and Savior Elon Musk imports cheap H1B labor in from all over to undercut American employees, lol
Nothing only that but as their leader tries to shutdown the chip act that would have brought over chip manufacturing to Arizona.
Neither are convicted criminals as presidents part of the american dream…
Affordable goods that aren’t cheap Chinese garbage are a part of the American dream though.

The American Dream is home ownership and comfortably supporting a family - not like he’s doing anything to make that more accessible either.
