Some MAGA here SWORE to me that this egg thing was much better.

I wonder whose ass they had their heads inserted in?

Life is worse under Trump and rapidly, rapidly sliding down hill.

... despite President Donald Trump's predictions ...

Not just his predictions.

Pres Trump as said eggs prices are coming down.

Trump claims credit for falling egg prices but no relief for shoppers yet (March 13, 2025)
www.axios.com

... Trump on Wednesday took credit for falling prices, saying "we did a lot of things that got the cost of eggs down, very substantially."

But while wholesale prices have started to tick down, grocery shoppers are still paying more than ever for a dozen eggs. ...

The egg farmers are facing a conundrum.

I saw one reference that said 166 million hens have been ~culled.~

OK, aside from the diminished quantity of eggs that appear in the supermarkets, there also is a need for eggs to replace those 166 million hens. Hens don't grow on trees, they come from eggs.

So, the eggs farmers face a double hill to climb.

1) Providing eggs for consumers

2) Obtaining eggs needed to to grow the hens to satisfy (1).

"U.S. egg prices increased again last month to reach a new record-high of $6.23 per dozen despite President Donald Trump's predictions, a drop in wholesale prices and no egg farms having bird flu outbreaks."

OK, that was last month. Average pricing of eggs where I live are about $3.88/dozen, cheaper if you buy the 18 count. Looks like AP is using Hawaii or Alaska as their model for "average prices"

At least now I can get eggs. TJ's where I live didn't have eggs for almost two months.

But not I can buy at TJ's at $3.99 a dozen.

Eggs where $4.35 a dozen at the grocery store today. I sear to God most people on this site are insane, and never get out.

How could you not know egg prices fell off the cliff when RFK stopped the culling?

Now we found out autism will be over by September, and people want to paint swasticas on Elon's cars!

@#25 ... that's weird. ...

What is weird for me is the apparent focus of Pres Trump and Republicans upon the prices of eggs.

Trump promised to bring down egg prices on day one. Now, he's sharing articles telling people to shut up' about it (March 2025)
www.yahoo.com

There was a bird flu crisis.

Nearly 200 million hens were culled due to that crisis.

So, not only are there fewer hens laying eggs for consumers, there are also fewer hens laying eggs to grow into hens to lay eggs for consumers.

So, it is not weird to me.

Why is it weird to your current alias?
