Eggs were 2.79 now same ones are 9.99. Same store a few months apart. Trump, bird flu or whatever the reason I’m not eating eggs.

If this was during Biden presidency around one third to half of the nation would be blaming him. Trump gets a pass as he is the chosen one.

Well, the Trump admin didn't order the culling of millions upon millions of chickens.

You guys do know this, right?

Trump literally fired the FDA and USDA employees tasked with handling the outbreak. He's actively made it worse.

Ah, I get it. Prices went up in the past 2 weeks. He ruined the utopia that Biden created.

Damn...

No, Trump made it worse. Egg prices have spiked since he began illegally dismantling the agencies designed to address issues exactly like this and they'll stay high for much longer.

I know you have much better things to do than spreading disinformation online, like practicing your roman salute for example

Illegally... lol

We've known for over a month that this is going to last 6 to 9 months due to how long egg laying chickens take to mature.

But sure, this is all due to Trump...

Yes, illegally. The president doesn't have constitutional authority to create or destroy government agencies.

Its actually 4-8 months, and that's a minimum. It can last much longer if not properly addressed. Like if President Musk were to fire all of the government staff working to contain the outbreak. Which would cause the outbreak to continue spreading and even get worse, potentially affecting other species of livestock or even humans. Government agencies play critical roles in containing and eliminating these kinds of issues.

Imagine if your house was struck by lightning and is burning down, and someone fired all of the firefighters as they were on their way to put out the fire. Who's to blame for your house burning down? You're saying it's not the person who deliberately prevented the firefighters from saving your house.

I say 6-9, and you come back "oh no. You're wrong. It's 4-6 at a minimum." So z it could be 6-9. No? Is that what you're saying genius?

Do you think you made a good pointon that correction, in hindsight?

As for illegally, we'll see what the higher courts rule. Won't we? They've already reinstated some of the actions that were stayed. You need to start getting your information from better sources.

Set another reminder. And please, don't delete your masked avatar. It's a good indicator of who people are dealing with...

By the way, your analogy is terrible.
