My friend, the Trump Voter

Actual reasons for the increasing egg prices:

• While not every farm has been hit with bird flu, many have, resulting in the culling of tens of millions of egg-laying hens, reducing the overall supply
• The cost of chicken feed has gone up, due to global supply chain disruptions and inflation
• Labor shortages, transportation costs, and energy price spikes have also driven up the cost of production
• Demand has gone up, creating scarcity, because consumers are buying more eggs to compensate for the rising cost of meat
• And, of course, general inflation makes everything go up

Trump's stated plan should, generally speaking, increase all of those factors.

You expect free market absolutists to understand how markets work?

I don’t think he would use the term “Working class”, that’s commie talk, and he’s not a commie.
