#MAGAFLATION - $12.99 dozen eggs (Page 26)

[JD50]

Should have read my reply to the first halfwit that responded.

You lied about the price of gas and got called out on it. No one cares what you paid for something after using coupons, you know this.

 

[JD50]

I just paid $0 for eggs (after using AMEX reward points to cover my grocery bill), hur dur tHanKs tRuMp

 

[Indus]

You don't know shit. LOL
Nobody cares what you think as you said "it matters Not".

Ok so we don't know shit.

At least explain in your own words.. why have people turned to Trump again?

An Anti Vaxxer in charge of vaccines
A russian agent in charge of national intelligence
An oil exec in charge of green energy
A person wanting to destroy social security in charge of social security

What was so terrible? Give us 5 reasons why people were willing to put wolves in charge of the hen house..

 

[manly]

This whole thread is a little silly. I don't want to defend or accuse anyone, but his post is just about as useful as the original post. We cannot discern any impact Trump has had on inflation prior to his assuming office. Both the OP and Greenman's post are silly.

Yup, silly being a euphemism for dumb.

They didn't get the results that the Democrats were expected to deliver During the Biden / Harris term. Joe is done and not able to do the job in a second term. The DNC screwed the pooch and gave it to Kamala to save them and she is/was just an empty pantsuit with no message and a lot of money to blow. She couldn't even buy an election. One Billion + Dollars gone in the wind and still in debt for 20 million.

An Anti Vaxxer in charge of vaccines.

He has said he isn't anti-vaccine he only wants the true data out so people can make informed choices. He stated he will not ban any vaccines.

A russian agent in charge of national intelligence.

Tulsi Gabbard is no more a Russian Agent than you are. This statement is laughable.

An oil exec in charge of green energy.

He would be in charge of all energy. He has stated that the US need to expand and utilize all forms of energy. We are not able to shift to all green energy at the moment and anyone with two or more brain cells knows this.

A person wanting to destroy social security in charge of social security.

Who are you referring to specifically in this question? You do realize that the SSA in an Independant agency since 1995 and are no longer under the HHS.

https://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/ssb/v58n1/v58n1p57.pdf

The new legislation officially separates the Social Security Administration (SSA) horn the Department of Health and Human Services (HBS), effective March 3 1, 1995, and restores the SSA to its original status as an independent Federal agency. (Since 1939, SSA has operated under the direction of a “parent” agency.)

Well my 8 pack of sparkling water from Safeway in their house brand, was $4.99 today when last time I bought it last week it was $3.99.

Thanks Trump for making my groceries cheaper.

What Incel can eat 5 dozen eggs?

I use 6 a day, but only one yolk. Add in the eggs my family eats and 5 dozen goes fast

 

[nakedfrog]

Pcgeek absolutely voted for Trump. I don’t buy he didn’t. Not that it matters 😁

Regardless of whether or not he voted for him, he's 100% in on running interference for him.

 

[QueBert]

The Krogers gas thing's kinda bullshit, it's .10 a gallon for normal people. To save a buck requires you to spend $1,000. So I'd have to spend $12,000 so I can save a buck a gallon on my 12 gallon car? LOL

And I'd guess any family big enough to spend thousands of dollars a month at Krogers would probably have a Costco or Sams Club membership.

I'm not running interference for anyone. I only speak my mind in here.
You say that like my tiny input on this forum has any kind of impact on anyone.

 

[DAPUNISHER]

I have never found eggs to be filling. Quite the opposite really.

Hard boiled are the most filling if eating eggs alone. I often turn dinner from Friday and Saturday into a next day brunch frittata. Some type of Mexican, Cuban, Caribbean, southwest, or other ethnic food night? Some kind of BBQ? Steaks? Pork chops or tenderloin? All become a brunch frittata, because eggs let you stretch things out and transform the flavors. Love to put sunny side up eggs on top of dishes too. Then there is incorporating them into various dishes as well. As the old industry ads pushed back in the day - Sing that jingle! The incredible edible egg!

It also boggles my mind that, when faced with price pressures, people apparently never look for an alternative. The spice eggs must flow hatch

Price pressure? Like $7 for 18 pasture raised is pressure? They need to GTFO with that bullshit.

Every Friday should be 4X points (here in L.A.). So you might be able to clear 1000 points by spending $250 in a month. There might be some other points strategies, but I don't use Ralphs Fuel rewards anymore. A long time ago, the quantity limit was fairly high (maybe 50 gals? That's really high, so maybe less) so if you were clever, you could bring two cars to the same pump. Do one big transaction to maximize the savings.

As if it wasn't obvious, claiming to have gotten gas for $1.61/gal is mainly a troll post. There is a gas price thread in ATOT and he's bragged for a while how cheap his net cost is for fuel. Obviously he's never thanked Joe Biden for that.

We only go to kroger for things that are really on sale (like our bill will be only about half of what it was before the sale) most of our shopping is at Aldi, stocking up once a month or so at Costco business etc.

 

[hal2kilo]

Bacon jumped a buck at Costco. 3lb pack went from $16.99 to $17.99 in a week. It had gotten back down to $14.99 a month or 2 before that.

If the price goes to zero for mineral water (which I love) will you blame Trump or Obama?

 

[Moonbeam]

I for one am just glad that after years of saying that you can't judge Trump until his cases are adjudicated by the courts that even when the courts DO adjudicate them and find Trump liable/guilty @Greenman decides he never cared what the courts thought to begin with.

Greenman: Innocent until proven guilty!

Courts: Ok - proven guilty.

Greenman: No, not like that. That doesn't count either

I grew up listening to my Father say that a fool convinced against his will is of the same opinion still. Of course when he said that he was usually implying that the fool was me.

Perhaps because of this and similar, I learned early on to attribute ignorant pigheadedness to its real source. Having to face the possibility that one’s own stupidity is the source of one’s own misery certainly ought to remove the inclination to believe in the justification of the right to blame others giving one some important sense of humility.

I think that without some sense of real and open self questioning one won’t develop an attitude of self reflection because of the lack of a sense of possibilities beyond reflexive an autonomic denial, a need to exert egotistical certainty, and thus the self can never be seen as the fault of anything. A fool convinced against his will never see the foolishness of his or her ego.

Will you god damned Egg Heads knock it off with the math. I don't eat eggs. I eat beef. How much meat do you think I could buy if all you assholes could afford it. Once you dumb clucks let your eggs get cold they're not turning into chickens no matter how many times you count them. You can't tell the difference between a chicken coop and a nut house around here.

I heard the CEO of Trump Steaks is going to run the Agriculture Dept. Thank God for small mercies.

I am going to be delighted to live to see you proven right but it will mean I will have to question my own sanity because the evidence that Trump will be a national disaster seem intuitively obvious to me. But clearly you feel the same way. I'm curious then, what will prove to you it's your view and not mine that is mistaken. You probably believe you thinking is evidenced based, and should alter according to additional data, right? What would could Trump do that would convince you you've made a mistake? Are their any bridges that would be too far?

Of course I knew it was a troll post, but MAGAs see shit like this and run with it. There was a big thread on Reddit with some MAGAs showing 2017 and recent recipes of the same shit proving they pay 400% more at Walmart now for what they bought while Trump was in office. Assuming the images weren't AI, they managed to find some super oddball 1 off shit that went from around $100 to almost $400. But they treat it like that's how it is across the board.

Honesty and intelligence aren't strong points when it comes to MAGA.

Are you sure about that? Do you think that businesses are going to wait until the Tarrifs are put in place by Trump, to start charging more, requiring them to upfront the extra cost of products and supplies? The only way businesses wait to raise prices is when they have no forwarning that it's going to happen. A good example is businesses who primarily pay minimum wage, they raise prices up to 3 months before the new minimum wage goes into effect, so they can get ahead of the cost, and impact on their business, rather than behind it. The same holds true here. It's exactly why consumers are rushing to buy certain products. Prepreation for higher prices that are garanteed to be coming if Trump follows thru with his Tarrifs.

I have no regrets...
After his second campaign I decided he has too much baggage to receive my vote again.

Well I could be wrong. It is just how I see it. I'm not alone as 76 million plus voters agree the Democrats don't have a plan or a message.
