      Who voted for this guy initially?

      Everything you read about him is he is as incompetent as one could be in every regard.

      Well this is eggsceptionally bad. The economy is doing well but these republicans are hatching plans to just lie in order to pander to the misconception that things are bad. And in this post truth social media world, these lies will spread like wildfire online. It’s clear that social media isn’t all it’s cracked up to be

      It would be something if he were caught telling the truth. Now that would be news.

      It’s just one egg, how much could it cost, 10 dollars?

    6. Under40Curmudgeon on

      “I’d like a dozen eggs. What have you got? A lot of Grade A large? Okay, good. How about a few extra large, you know…whatever makes sense.”

      EDIT: Tweaked it slightly to include the “okay, good.” Thank you for catching that!

      Lying about the price of a dozen eggs while holding a crate of 2.5 dozen eggs. So much wrong here lmao.

      He lies all day every day, he hates trump, so he holds his nose in a chase for power. He repeats every lie, makes up his own, anything to kiss trump’s ass.

      > prior to Kamala Harris taking office, eggs cost less than $1.50 a dozen

      These people are the worst. Price gouging started, evolved and became the new norm during COVID; under Trump’s watch.

      Eggs are up now because there’s another round of Avian Flu wiping out our laying hens, just like a couple years ago. There was also the little problem of egg producers colluding to raise prices artificially, the subject of some federal criminal action the last I heard. What would help stabilize egg prices? Pass laws that force egg producers to implement preventative measures to reduce Avian Flu outbreaks in the first place, that would help.

      Also, gas prices are falling dramatically despite Saudi Arabia’s efforts to keep them propped up, wonder why Vance didn’t mention that?

    13. howldetroit on

      tldr: he’s standing in front of clearly-marked $2.99 eggs saying they cost $4 here. fucking doofus.

    14. TheyCallMeSlyFox on

      *When Joe and Kamala took office, eggs cost $1.50 per dozen. Today, because of their policies (?) the (two dozen, but who’s counting? Obviously not me!) eggs I’m holding in my hand cost $4!*

      – J.D. Vance (I’m assuming)

    15. TheyCallMeSlyFox on

      As a reminder, when Joe and Kamala took office, paying $1.50 for a dozen eggs could’ve cost you your life amid the multiple-thousand deaths per day Delta COVID surge… Because J.D.’s running mate, UV enema-in-chief, had so badly bungled the response to a once-in-a-century pandemic.

      Now, after 4 years of Joe and Kamala righting the ship, the only danger you have to face in getting eggs are asshole politicians doing bad-faith performance art in front of the cooler.

      Vance is an actor, paid for by Trump to stay on script. He is simply a puppet paid to mimic Trump. He is not allowed to think on his own. He had some pretty big promises made by Trump for him and a big job for his wife if Trump is elected and now finds himself in a real jam. Trump will lose by a large margin and JD is going to have an uphill battle furthering his political career when Trump loses this one. The promise of the pot of gold at the end of the Trump rainbow just isnt looking too good for JD. We was picked for the position because he is easily manipulated by fame and influence.

    18. greywar777 on

      What sort of incompetent team allows this? not only is he bad at his job here, but his team is obviously incompetent.

    19. Captain_Aware4503 on

      Let’s not forget Kroger was caught admitting they inflated egg prices, not because suppliers charged them more, but because they wanted to make more profit. In other words price gouging.

    20. ranchoparksteve on

      “Two dozen eggs cost double what a dozen cost just yesterday.”

    22. Trpepper on

      Obama won debates by making up numbers, why is it that nobody ever called him out for that?

      Let me explain. When Obama made up a number in a debate, it was always an UNDERSTATEMENT. When you rhetorically understate a problem, you force the opposition to do research to prove you wrong. They will find you were wrong, but won’t dare correct you. When you Overstate, you will get corrected, and you will lose. Republicans will never understand this.

      dude was playing egg inc before someone told him the camera is rolling

    25. Celeres517 on

      Setting aside the fact that Vance can’t seem to do anything in public beyond metaphorically slamming his own dick in a car door, eggs are a less than ideal example for making this kind of point because they are such a price stratified product. A full grocery store will have $2 to $3 a dozen eggs, as well as $8 to $10 a dozen eggs, depending on how frou frou you want to be about it.

      To some extent, I think this is *precisely why* they prove so attractive for Trumpers on a crusade to talk about high inflation. About a year ago I had an identical back and forth with some rando who also was trying to use eggs to illustrate their point, and it very quickly became apparent that they were basing their assertions on $7 a dozen cage-free organic eggs.

    26. medic914 on

      Didn’t know Kamala also controls the price of eggs in Canada as well

    27. rubberduckie5678 on

      Vance cares so little about farmers – HIS VOTERS- that he can’t be bothered to learn the truth about why egg prices are high right now. Vance cares so little about economics to learn the truth about how supply and demand works.

      This could have been an opportunity to recognize farmers, recognize the pain of high prices, and blame Biden for not doing enough to help mitigate the effects of avian flu.* In other words, to look like an informed leader who cares. Instead, he lies. What an incompetent moron.

      *not much to be done given factory farming, but still…

      Just short of saying “when Donald Trump was president a dozen eggs were like a dollar and the chickens were happy and laid more eggs so you got a bakers dozen. More often than not the extra egg would also have an extra yoke because we were lucky to have Donald Trump in office. Since Kamala became dictator eggs are up to 4 dollars per egg and the immigrants started stealing that 13th egg which made the chickens sad. Now they no longer lay eggs with an extra yolk and America is down and out on its luck. Not only that they started breaking onto houses and pecking holes into couches, specifically my couch. Thanks Obama”

    30. foffl on

      If he has to make up prices to get the media to report on his fake made up prices, well that’s just what he’ll do.

    31. No-Patience3862 on

      When egg prices go up (currently due to avian flu wiping out hens) why on earth doesn’t the government flood news outlets with the actual reason?! Preemptively educate consumers knowing it will be the current government blamed for the cost increase if they don’t. To be in power these days means being on defense even when it’s not your fault. Just do it. 

    32. Relevant_Ad_8406 on

      Bird flu made prices go up in addition to inflation and gas prices. Democrats tend to add more government to help fund programs to keep our food supply safe. This guy, next thing you know he is going to blame the democrats for the distraction with the hurricane coming towards the south . I visited the area last year, looks like a natural buffer off looks like a natural buffer of pine trees are being removed for unrestricted development . It’s all a manipulation with “This Guy.”

    34. Hi_Im_Ken_Adams on

      I’m surprised he doesn’t call selling eggs “chicken-abortions”.

    35. vacuous_comment on

      He does not care about the lies. He does not care if he is caught.

    37. copingstoic on

      Why can’t his handlers stop this guy from visiting stores? Any store. Jesus, it is awful.

    38. Basserist71 on

      Could you imagine what would happen if these clowns were elected to the presidency and vice presidency? No checks, no balances. Just pure idiots.

    40. linengirlsummer on

      This fucker wants to just run out the clock. We have 6 weeks to election, and he can’t present any kind of plan or promise or message, just constant shit stirring and lying. It’s the chaos strategy to wear people out.

    41. awwaygirl on

      The funniest part about all this is that he’s caught lying by the freaking SIGN behind him. Whoever set up that shot for the media / cameras might be a plant. LOL

    42. copingstoic on

      I would really like to see him visit a furniture store and choose couches. May be that’s next.
