California Governor Gavin Newsom has mocked Donald Trump over the president's promise to "immediately" lower food costs once back in the White House. Newsom sent Trump a reminder of his campaign promise to batter rising food costs, after the president was grilled about record-high beef prices. "How can anybody afford that?" Trump asked. "When I win, I will immediately bring prices down." According to the Department of Agriculture's Economic Research Service, the average cost of ground beef in July 2025 hit $6.25 a pound, topping the previous record of $6.12 set in June, which itself marked the first time prices ever breached $6. Overall, beef and veal prices were 11.3 percent higher in July 2025 than they were in July 2024 under the Biden administration. |
