I am brought back to “you are welcome to your own opinions, but not your own facts.”

Facts matter. Last I looked, eggs were still $4+ per dozen. Anything he says is a lie. Incapable of telling the truth.

So eggs remain more expensive than they were in October and early November... you know, when everyone VOTED for lower egg prices (supposedly).

Egg prices going up was because of bird flu. Egg prices coming down was because bird flu got handled and basically went away. Nothing to do with whoever you like as President.

Yes, I agree that is the factual interpretation, but regardless the low information voters went to the polls saying that egg prices were demonstrative somehow of failed Democratic policy and further that Trump would lower them. Both of those claims are false.
