President Donald Trump told voters, "When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day One."

Stinky fails again.

You won't hear anything from deplorable Trumping MAGAts about this.

Most will avoid this thread.

There's nothing to troll or gaslight about.

There's no wiggle room.

Trump ------ America.

The only way to stop him is to win supermajority in Congress.

Have enough democrats in Congress to prevent republicans from blocking and supporting Trump.

Texas Roadhouse is cheaper than buying a steak at the grocery store.

So much winning!

I got a warning last time I was at the butcher shop that prices were going to go up substantially fairly soon.

I used to make my own beef jerky from eye of round roasts or London broils.

Not anymore. An eye of round roast used to be $15-20 depending on size. Now? They're more than $30. Cost just isn't there anymore.

The marked down discounted sirloin/strip/ribeye steaks at my local grocery store (usually because they're on the last day or two of best by period) are now about the same price they would have been at full price ($15-20) just a year or two ago.

That seems to be the approach of Sec Hegseth towards our military serving on the ships in the Middle East.

A new report from the Bureau of Economic Analysis estimates that American consumers spent about $81.3 billion more on gas and other energy goods in March compared to the month prior, about a 20% increase.

Pedo 47 did that.

Or, you know, exactly what you'd expect to be the outcome when you allow corporate control of government, resulting in the condensation or monopolization of industries like the beef industry where the producers and consumers get screwed while the corporations controlling everything from slaughter/processing to packaging to sales rakes in the cash hand over fist.

God, what lame responses by the right wingers on this thread. Nothing new there but still. Soaring grocery prices are fault of the globalists, beef-hating libs and soy boys, rather than the never-ending failures of their hero, dumpy.

Why don't you post the names of some of the left wing leaders who have stated they want to ban beef? Or is that just another one of your lies?

Remember when MAGATS where all up in arms about the price of eggs heading into the 2024 elections? Why are they not applying that same line of thinking to beef now? Is it because they are part of a cult that will kick them out?

" Why don't you post the names of some of the left wing leaders who have stated they want to ban beef?"

Lookout.

Nowadays, when Bellringer is caught lying, his response is "hyperbole".

Same thing 2-3 days ago. After claiming all Democrats were communists, he couldn't name a single one. When pressed? "Hyperbole".

As the thick patina of dust on the cover of my BBQ grill will attest, I haven't tasted steak since before Covid. Even the greying mutts marked down in the Cook-It-Now-Before-It-Goes-Bad aisle became priced waaay outside my increasingly-tortured monthly budget.

And, what percentage of the US population might be those who your current alias so castigates?

And how does that castigation substantiate what Pres Trump seems to be doing to the Country?

Our Globalist masters believe beef production is harmful to the environment. The lone star tick has been engineered to produce an enhanced protein to create a red meat food allergy.

But you refuse to believe that Donald Trump engineers both murders and assassination attempts.

I love you. Please never change.

What's more likely the government that engineered MK Ultra, Tuskegee and covid developed a protein that meshes perfectly with their globalist plans or that Trump engineered a plot to have someone shoot at him from hundreds of yards and just nick him? No one is that brave.

It wasn't that far, and Trump never got nicked.

"Trump engineered"

Trump can't even wipe his own ass, kid.

If anyone engineered anything, it was the people who have been engineering professional entertainment their whole lives and have ties to Trump's Cabinet.

Ask yourself if a competent illusionist could have choreographed Butler?

If you are honest, the answer is yes. And I'll bet that the name of that illusionist will be found.

And Snoofy is right. Trump was never "nicked". He would never put himself in harm's way. Neither would his cowardice have permitted him to do that over-the-top charade of faux-heroics for the photographers if he'd really been shot.
