Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Monday, April 07, 2025

Towns near the Canadian border are suffering. From Bellingham, Washington, to Calais, Maine, the United States has dozens of communities that are not so much linked to Canada's economy as interwoven with it. Gas stations in these places rely on business from Canadian commuters. Ski resorts and water parks rely on Canadian tourists. Manufacturing firms rely on Canadian industrial inputs. Farms rely on Canadian feed. Hotels rely Canadian business conferences.

Texas: $4 here for Walmart brand eggs

Congrats on bringing down the cost of eggs to somewhere NEAR normal.

You are the type who expects a reward for cleaning up your own mess, aren't you?

That's good news.

But the high price of eggs was due mostly (mainly?) to the culling of chickens due to the spread of bird flu.

The results of Pres Trump's tariffs are only now beginning to be felt.

Trump has been making an effort to get foreign producers to ship us more eggs, because egg prices shamed him.

Imports that he is now slapping tariffs on.

He's stupid; you're stupid.

I don't know why you're going to the trouble of flaking for Trump's economy...

Well I do actually...

But things will almost certainly get worse and all your efforts to prop up the man will be in vain.

Just enjoy the pain Trump is now promising you.
