Food Prices Have Dropped the Past Week. Promise Kept. Good Job, Mr. President!!

[Dante]

Eggs will get rid of the small decline.

Maybe Trump will go after the Eggs of immigrants so there will be no birthright citizenship claims?

It takes 8 months for a laying hen to begin laying eggs. It will probably take two to three years to replace the 100b mllion that were put down.
Egg prices will remain high until then.

But Trump promised!

In this case the one word is sufficient

Trump, do something. You prwomised!

The price of eggs is increasing due to significant bird flu outbreaks among egg-laying chickens12345. Prices have risen 28.1% in the past year, and the average price for a dozen large, grade A eggs was $3.20 in August1. In December, a dozen eggs cost $4.16 on average, marking an annual increase of about 37%2. In California, prices have reached $8.97, a 70% increase in the last month5.

Yes he did.

Forget the excuses. He said things after we all knew about the Bird Flu and chickens being put down


One Word: EGGS

Most hens will lay their first egg around 18 weeks of age and then lay an egg almost daily thereafter. Learn more about egg counts and what to expect from laying hens.

Consistent egg production is a sign of happy, healthy hens. Most hens will lay their first egg around 18 weeks of age and then lay an egg almost daily thereafter. In their first year, you can expect up to 250 eggs from high-producing, well-fed backyard chickens. Then, egg counts will naturally decrease each following year with hens entering egg retirement around years six or seven.

promised AFTER the chickens were put down

Between having to put down chickens and red states forcing them to carry the eggs to term ( ), it was going to be a hard promise to keep...

This is what Trump actually said on prices -

Trump says it will be 'hard' to bring grocery prices down. Here's why.

The pace of food price growth has already slowed dramatically over the past year.

That differs from information one read before but sounds reasonable. There are also different levels of production from different species.

"This is what Trump actually said on prices" - After the election.



In August 2024, then-candidate former President Donald Trump delivered a press conference surrounded by packaged foods, meats, produce, condiments, milk and eggs.

“When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day One,” he said at the time.

It was a pledge he repeated on the campaign trail, often followed by the phrase, “drill, baby, drill.” And to many voters, inflation was a justifiable target: Years of sharply rising prices had taken a toll on their hard-earned pay and their livelihoods.

But Day One has turned into Day Seven, and those eggs are getting even more expensive.

Despite a flurry of executive actions, Trump’s price-related promises have gone unfulfilled, Democratic lawmakers wrote in a letter addressed to the president.

“You have instead focused on mass deportations and pardoning January 6 attackers, including those who assaulted Capitol police officers,” according to the letter signed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren and 20 congressional Democrats. “Your sole action on costs was an executive order that contained only the barest mention of food prices, and not a single specific policy to reduce them.”

In fact, the lawmakers added, Trump appears to be “backtracking” on those promises,

Are groceries more expensive than last year? | USAFacts

Grocery store food prices increased 1.3% from September 2023 to September 2024, and increased 11% from 2021 to 2022 – the largest annual increase in 40 years.

usafacts.org

Several factors affect food prices, such as:

Supply chain challenges, including those related to COVID-19 and global relations such as the war in Ukraine

Inflation

Higher labor and transportation costs

Animal disease, such as the avian flu in 2022 which impacted egg and chicken prices

Extreme weather events which damage crops and affect animals
