The Tangerine Turnip causes beef prices to skyrocket

Cypress said:
Beef prices are the new egg prices. They’re soaring

First it was eggs, now it’s beef.

The last time Americans likely noticed spiking prices at the grocery store was when eggs reached record-highs. Since then, egg prices have fallen after the deadly avian flu outbreak was contained and producers built back supply.

Now, beef prices are hitting records, rising almost 9% since January, according to the Department of Agriculture, and retailing for $9.26 a pound. June’s consumer price index showed steak and ground beef prices are up 12.4% and 10.3%, respectively, over the last year.

Trump promised he'd lower grocery prices. Obviously another Trump lie. Sad.

Trump pledged to bring down food prices on Day One.​

Trump now says bringing down grocery prices, as he promised, will be 'very hard'

President-elect Donald Trump campaigned relentlessly on grocery prices in the 2024 race. Now, he says lowering costs will be "very hard."

Beef is a three year pipeline.....and the massive declines in the herds started about five years ago...this is not Trumps fault.
 
I jam Trump pretty much every day, but some of these claims blaming Trump are moronic.....its hard to believe that the people who say these things actually believe them.....this is narrative war aimed at the Modern Morons....so dumb and brainwashed that they will believe anything.

Trump is clearly showing the strain as he loses on every front, once again betrayed by his life long problem of over optimism.

Massive declines?

Cattle & Beef - Sector at a Glance | Economic Research Service

www.ers.usda.gov www.ers.usda.gov

2016 - 30.2 million head
2019 - 31.6 million head
2022 - 30.0 million head
2024 - 28 million head.

I didn't realize a change of 8% is massive.
Does that make Trump's tax cut for billionaires massive? Does that make Trump's cut to medicare massive? Does that make Trump's increase in deficits due to the big beautiful bill massive?

It's incredible how much beef costs now. Fortunately it's not a big part of our diet but still. How do young families afford to feed their kids? You used to be able to get a sirloin steak on sale for $6/lb. Now it's over $11/lb. Meijer had ground chuck on sale for $6/lb yesterday.

Good old Trump, so much winning. Not.

The MAGA morons don't care as long as he keeps attacking those left of Alt-Right. They are fueled by hate, bile and lies about anyone who dares to disagree with them.
