Summary

Trump recently shared a provocative column on Truth Social titled “Shut Up About Egg Prices — Trump Is Saving Consumers Millions,” written by conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

This comes despite Trump’s campaign promises to reduce grocery costs “immediately” and “on Day 1.” Egg prices have soared to record highs, averaging $4.95/dozen in January and exceeding $10/dozen in some regions, leading to purchase limits and shortages.

While bird flu has significantly impacted prices by killing millions of chickens since 2022, Trump has shifted from his campaign stance, recently telling Fox News “Inflation is back” but claiming “I had nothing to do with it” after just weeks in office.

    I was watching some jubilee youtube content (do not recommend) but the number one thing i have to say about conservatives is they suffer from some crazy form of indignation. Like, these were recorded pre-election and one guy was outright furious that kamala was campaigning as if project 2025 was trumps plan. Never mind it’s plain to see that would be their plan. Never mind that is exactly what we are seeing today. This same guy, if I stopped him on the street today would be mad about something entirely different and never even take a second to recognize how massively wrong he was. Jus’ out there being indignant about some other meaningless gop grievance.
