The Tangerine Turnip causes beef prices to skyrocket

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

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



MAGAT Chorus: He was just kidding!
 
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.

Nice shot at your MISTRESS and the other MAGATs who have been blaming Biden for inflation for years. Well done! lol

US weekly #cattle slaughter for weekending 7/5, holiday week. YTD 2025 cattle slaughter down 945K head and beef production has fallen by 345 million pounds. Tight beef supplies = higher prices.

Are you trying to show us that Trump's deportation of workers in slaughterhouses is resulting in higher prices since there aren't enough workers to keep up with demand? I guess Trump is the reason for higher prices.


But when we look at the year compared to last year, we see a 6.4% drop in year to date totals as of July 21. That isn't the massive decrease that you claimed. Of course, if Trump's deportation means that there aren't enough workers that could result in ever higher prices.
 
Get all your sales in now after next week more prices will be going up and up IF Trump doesn't back track on his tariffs AGAIN.
There are always going to be a lot of sales... I just found Ground beef for 2.99 a pound ... Instead of that ridiculous panicking , why don't you encourage people to budget and shop sales? Like we've always done...
 
Newsweek’s Hugh Cameron reported that “ground beef prices across the U.S. continue to reach new highs, driven by shrinking cattle herds, with looming import restrictions threatening to push costs even higher.”

“According to government data released last week, the average price of a pound of 100 percent ground beef rose to $6.12 last month, up from $5.98 in May and $5.47 in June 2024,” Cameron reported. “Experts have said this trend shows no signs of slowing, meaning there may be upward pressure on prices through 2026 and beyond.”

Today's herds were reduced in size back in the Biden administration it takes 2-3 years to increase herd size.

  • Biological Lag: Cattle have a long gestation period (around 283 days or roughly 9 months). After birth, it takes time to raise calves to market weight and for heifers to mature and enter the breeding herd. It can take three years from the time a producer decides to retain a heifer calf until her offspring contribute to an increase in beef supplies.
 
Drought is associated with tariffs?

How does that work....exactly?
Beef prices have reached record highs: here's why that's the case
Tariffs are one of the reasons for (spiking beef prices).

"One of our biggest partners, Canada, theirs has increased because of tariffs," Burnstein said. "Now the Mexican side has increased."

Another reason? Cattle supply. According to the USDA, Herd Size is the lowest it's been in 74 years, with a sharp decline over the last five years. The USDA is attributing this to persistent droughts, raising the cost of feed for farmers

Because unlike you people can see what is happening,
AGAIN IF Trump finally does put his tariffs on and doesn't flip flop again prices of just about everything we buy will be going up and up
It is the American consumer that will be paying them not the exporting countries they are just going to pass his tariffs on to us.

Well, go ahead and panic then.... You made up your mind to do that a long time ago..... Fortunately, we have choices..... To do what I mentioned....
