Trump regime propaganda Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said at a press briefing Monday that falling egg prices show the administration is working quickly and diligently to solve America’s affordability crisis. “Wholesale egg prices, they continue to fall. A dozen eggs are now $3.10 cheaper since January 24. That’s a 47% decrease overall,” Leavitt said. But if you haven’t noticed lower egg prices at the grocery store, you’re not alone! The reason is a key word Leavitt included: “wholesale.” Those are the prices distributors buy from farmers or middlemen. Consumer prices, which is what you’re charged at the grocery store, aren’t falling – they’re rising. For the third straight week, wholesale egg prices fell to $4.15 per dozen, according to the US Department of Agriculture, a 30% decrease from the week before when prices were $6.85 a dozen. But the average RETAIL price for consumers is $5.90 per dozen eggs, up $0.94 from last month, the USDA notes. Of course eventually they MUST fall as more egg-laying hens become available and the avian flu subsides... Its very hard to make a maga understand that trump didnt wave his magic wind and the prices of eggs went down. They dont get simple math, more chickens, means more eggs and top of that less demand from consumers. Of course prices would go down, but hey they just want give trump credit for everything in the world. Seriously how insane does a person have to be to actually think of trump as some god like creature? If trump went on tv and told magas to take out their guns and shoot themselves, i would guess 85 percent of them would do it.
