Because meat is so expensive people won't be able to afford to buy it, so fewer people eating meat - and that's a 'good thing', right?

Gotta stay one step ahead of events to spin them.
ummmm, you don't have to wait. Plenty of leftist celebrating this would help the planet, and articles on "ways to eat less meat since it's expensive"

Liar. His homespun "Scranton Joe" stories are BS. You live in the White House. You don't sit around a kitchen table talking about the grocery store and what's going on down at the mill. ... and last but not least you don't have friends. You've ruined the country, you're a mean old man, you're afraid of everything and walk your dog on the beach wearing a mask so NO, none of that happened.

Son, senile and phony are no way to go through life.
Every president has done this sort of thing...they try to appear as 'the guy next door" (just another peasant).


Remember when Obama invited some Joe Schmo to 'have a beer at the whitehouse'? Yeah, those kinds of things, they do them for the optics.

Biden use to drive one, or was that the ship he navigated?

Donald must be complaining.

I Gor a bet that commodity food prices are going up this year, primarily because of erratic climate.

Gas is up.
Lumber is up. Again after dropping in the fall.
Steel is way up.
Most people don't buy these things directly on a regular basis.

PS I called her an elite because she is a friend of the Bidens.

Congrats, consider yourself lucky. But just because you have low prices doesn't mean the entire country is that way. In my state, I'm feeling the hit.



- A lb of ground beef goes for 3.99 - 4.99/lb
- 4-Pack of chicken thighs and drumsticks - 4.99 -5.99/lb
- 2-Pack of chicken breasts - 7.99 - 8.99/lb
- "Family value" packages of drumsticks, thighs, and leg quarters - 8.99 - 9.99


Speaking of pasta sauce, the store near my apartment was all out of it last Friday. They're pasta section was half empty. Veggies were doing well but are now taking a hit again. Sure, you can still find deals, especially on generic brands, but to shrug this off when it's an actual thing is a tad bit ignorant.
