The article discusses the discrepancies between President Trump's claims about the economy, particularly regarding grocery prices, and the actual rising costs. It emphasizes the need for accountability from political leaders, regardless of their party affiliation. Specifically, the prices of eggs and gas have increased significantly, contradicting the administration's narrative of price reductions. With the national average for eggs climbing and a general rise in living costs, the author urges readers to critically assess the economic situation rather than accept political statements at face value.
Now, I'd like to add an amendment to the margin: 'Calling out the gaslighting.' Because, if you didn't know, our 78-year-old commander in chief has been claiming 'groceries are down' in price and that tags on eggs, specifically, have dropped '87 percent.' One look at your latest re-stock receipt, I'm sure, is likely to tell a different story.
Regardless of who is sitting in the Oval Office - whether they pledge to lower grocery prices and end wars on day one or not - I think we can all agree that holding candidates-turned-presidents accountable for their promises is important.
Perhaps a larger necessity than eggs, the price of gas has seen a month-over-month increase as well. For all the commuters out there, your pockets have likely felt a little lighter as the US Energy Information Administration reports March gas prices were about $3.223 on average.
Who knew 2025 would be marked as the year we all learned EXACTLY how often we use eggs? My local store's price seemingly refuses to dip below $8.99 per carton of 12, but the national average jumped from $5.90 in February to $6.23 in March.
