Ummm...you do know that line is going up, right? Not to mention this is STILL wholesale prices, not retail. I'm guessing you don't buy eggs wholesale, right?
Meanwhile, eggs are $4.49 at my local Meijer, which is down slightly and is to be expected due to Easter passing. I'm pretty confident that the retail prices, when released in a bit over a week, will show a decline in prices from trump's retail high in March. But that is completely attributable to the laws of supply and demand, not anything the orange pancake makeup wearing cult leader did.

That's a fuzzy interpretation of her tweet. Granted, it's disjointed as she links a story about transgender service members here too, but pretty sure she's not putting a recession solely on the price of eggs.

Damn, I thought you would take the bait in Post #2, not #3.
Going up? Yeah, a tiny bit.
You noticed where they were in March. That's not a normal market decline. Context, dude.

I know. I feel so guilty. Something about the price of eggs just gets his fingers drumming on the keyboard.
OTOH, it IS a timely political topic, even now. Every time it ticks up a tad, the Dems scream bloody murder. But every time it plunges like a boulder off a tall cliff, they ignore it.

Trump is kicking the Democrat party’s teeth in daily. They pick and choose any small win they can get and make the mole hill into a mountain. It’s what happens when your policies suck, the American people know they suck, and your party leaders are idiots like Bernie, AOC and the wannabe hood rat.
Apparently Tom doesn’t realize if the wholesale price drops, so will the retail price. That must have been the chapter after deductibles

Nor was the market increase from December of 2024 to March of 2025. It was due to the bird flu that skewed the supply side. That's how these things work. https://tradingeconomics.com/commodity/eggs-us

Interesting...it's almost like you've uncovered the science of the internet message board.
But well done...finishing it off with your standard logical fallacy.
And I'll remind you, again, that the retail prices DID NOT FALL off a cliff YET through March, the last published data. They were still going up.
But as I said above, they should show a decline when the April numbers are released in a week. Unless trumps ******* up of the economy with his tariff nonsense muck things up.

Almost. I haven't quite gotten there yet. Every day, I think about taking a break, but then he says something else that extends the depths of dumb.
And I'm not really sure why egg prices get him so riled up.
Sorta like Tanq and his due process for a wife beating, human smuggling gangbanger from El Salvador, who is also an illegal alien, and has had "due process" multiple times, with only a stay for a now non-existent gang.
The hills some die on almost always turn out to be fire ant hills.

Well done, making a complete ass of yourself trying to play sycophant to the local dishonest troll on something you don't know the first thing about. Silly sod.
So again, I'll educate your ignorant ass, with facts.
3A, you ask why I engage in such threads. This is why. Your pals can't help themselves and post ignorant **** like this which I easily debunk and make them look foolish. But hey...keep thinking everything I post is wrong. Would be nice if you had the stones to reply to guys like this and tell them they're wrong. Doesn't take much intelligence to know that retail prices don't follow wholesale prices on a 1:1 basis, nor at the exact same time...there's often lags due to supply issues as well as other factors like demand around holidays, etc.
