The effects of the Biden Bird Flu are subsiding. The chart on the left showing the cost of eggs resembles a lawn chair being folded.Yet another one of bidens problems trump has fixed.Thank you, Donald J Trump https://www.newsweek.com/2025-eggs-prices-per-dozen-economy-donald-trump-2044401Chart Shows 2025 Egg Price Surge Wiped Out In Single WeekThe price of eggs has dropped from $7.22 per dozen, just a little less than the all-time high of $8.17 a few days before, to $4.90 in a single week, new data shows.Why It MattersEgg prices have skyrocketed to historic levels over the past year, with wholesalers recently paying more than $8 for a dozen eggs, compared to just $2 per dozen in previous years.The issue became a flashpoint issue during last year's presidential election as a symbol of the increasing financial hardship many Americans have been experiencing.A Gallup poll showed that voters overwhelmingly cited economic pressures as the key reason they voted for President Donald Trump in November.What To KnowThis year started with the price of eggs at $5.81 on January 3, moved up to $6.55 by January 23, $7.09 five days later, $7.52 by the end of the month and $8.76 at the start of February.By February 20, the price had shot up to $8.03, before hitting an all-time high of $8.17 on March 3. But then the price started dipping, down to $7.22 by March 6, $6.08 by March 10, $5.18 by March 12 and $4.9 on March 13.The surge in egg prices is the ongoing bird flu outbreak, which has decimated poultry stocks at farms across the country—more than 111 million birds—mostly egg-laying hens—were infected or culled between February 2022 and January 2025.Other issues that have affected prices include inflation, supply chain issues, transportation costs, and new state animal welfare regulationsTrump promised that he would tackle egg prices on "day one" of his administration but said in December 2024 that it was "hard to bring things down once they're up."
good americans stopped murdering chickens
>>1391857Egg prices have dropped because tRump keeps laying eggs
>>1391857>REEEE EGG PRICES TOO HIGH DIS TRUMPS FAULT>But Biden was the one who ordered 100 million chickens killed.>y-yeah well he had to! And Trump was the one freezing FDA so it's his fault that it's high!>But we only have data for January. They could be lower.>w-wuh... well they won't be!And here we are. I wonder what they'll blame Trump for next.
>>1391884This could've been dealt with 2 months ago if Trump didn't freeze those assets. You wanna know why the price is going down so hard? Because the CDC were finally able to start announcing they were developing proper treatments to deal with the outbreak.
>>1391885lol all the fucking excuses in the world. The price is going down and you're still bitching at Trump about something meaningless.
Trumptards are delusional
>>1391890>REEEEE!!!*Taps the calendar 3 times* 46 months and a week left to go for you leftists.
>>1391886>something meaningless>extending a massive price increase for two extra months because he had to go on about "government efficiency" Strange coincidence the moment the CDC got back the ability to start addressing the problem things finally calmed down.
>>1391893>the price goes down>REEEEEEEE WHY DIDN'T TRUMP DO IT SOOONER Shut the fuck up.
>>1391890What a coincidence so is Trump
>>1391896>>1391890>Biden raises cost of everything for four years>The economy is going great!>Trump lowers the price of eggs less than two months in office>WHY THE FUCK DID IT TAKE TRUMP SO LONG TO FIX THE ECONOMY HE BROKE???Talk about delusional.
>>1391895You know, if someone gets elected promising to fix things "day 1", maybe he should do that instead of delaying the solution at least two months.
>>1391898>WAAAAAAHHHHHHHHAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAA HE SAID HE'D FIX BIDEN'S MISTAKE- Ah! Ahem, I mean we had a perfect economy under Biden and all of you are just too dumb to understand how it works. Nobody's fooled with your bullshit anymore. You lost. Hard.
>>1391899please explain how freezing the CDC's funding made this happen faster. I'm so curious.
>>1391898Oh silly me, anon. How could I forget that Trump is a magic genie who can snap his fingers and change economic realities on the spot?
>>1391900Please explain why Biden couldn't do this in four years.Bonus question: please explain why you people kept trying to convince us that the economy was going great (muh stock market, muh unemployment, etc.) as we're struggling to afford basic necessities to survive (food, rent, gas, etc.).
>>1391857>Starts picking fights over random shit with decades-long alays >Erratic Taxation Attempts >At least the fucking egg prices go down Thats some braindead copium
>>1391857Oh, right. $5 a carton, the normal price.
Still seven bucks a carton in my state, so fuck him.
>>1391898>Ha! It took trump 1.5 months to fix one of bidens problems when Trump said it would only take a day! Checkmate, chuds!lol
>>1391902>Why couldn't Biden fix a problem that only started in the last month of his term in four yearsAre you genuinely retarded?
>>1391955A quick search shows that the latest bird flu epidemic started in 2022
>>1391960>https://www.cdc.gov/bird-flu/situation-summary/index.html>The current outbreak began in late March 2024 with the detection of H5N1 bird flu in dairy cows.Also, let's live in your world for a bit: amazing how Biden was able to keep egg prices normal for two years and Trump screwed it up so badly they skyrocketed to more than double the price in the first month.
>>1391960The current strain was first found in 2022, but it only reached the US in 2024 you retard.
>>1391969>Trump screwed it up so badly they skyrocketed to more than double the price in the first monthBut egg price is nearly tripled under Biden. Any gain from Trump is already gone and they're back down to biden's triple-price level.A little bit more time and they'll be back down to before Biden messed it up
>>1391972>egg price nearly tripled under BidenLiterally the thread image shows the tripling happened under Trump after he took office.
>>1391974NTA, US Bureau of Labor Statistics clearly shows it skyrocketing from Oct 2024, from $3.37 average to $5.90 in February.
>>13919843X3 does not equal 5 anon. See me after class.
>>1391890Delusion is required. No one in their right mind would ever think the way trumptards do.
>>1391987He's saying that it doubled in just 4 months of Biden, that's a 2.0x increase The thread image shows it going from 6 to 8 which is a 0.3x increaseI said that that in 2022 under Biden they tripled in cost, from 1.79 to 4.2. by the end of 2024 they still remained at about triple the cost, roughly 4.3 (maybe that's around 2.5x and not 3.0x) https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/APU0200708111They didn't triple under trump any way you cut it, bad math retard
>>1391987Sure thing Anon. I can't wait for you to explain, mathematically, how prices didn't rise dramatically from October to February. Just like I can't wait to bend you over a desk and see how many mathematical units I can fit inside your ass.
>>1391860tRump sinks the rotten eggs that he lays are golden
>>1391993There was an outbreak. Trump froze the ability to deal with it any more during his first two months. That's why the price went from a high but not unusual for circumstances $5-$6 to an unprecedented $8.
>>1392002>There was an outbreak.Ah ah ah. You're making excuses, not explaining mathematically how $5.90 isn't more than $3.37. Class is in session bitch. Explain how 3X3 does not equal 5.
>>1392002>Trump froze the ability to deal with it any more during his first two monthsHe hasn't even been here two months, the trend was already occurring before he took office and then sharply reversed after he took over and they are now lower in cost than when he took over.Why is this so hard for you?
>>1392003>No, no! It was good Trump made it so they couldn't address the outbreak! Everything he does is right and everything Biden did is wrong!You know correcting a mistake doesn't mean you didn't fuck up in the first place.The literal only reason the price isn't increasing is because the outbreaks stopped, which was effectively pure luck on Trump's part because he cancelled all means of prevention.
>Guys egg prices are down! Trump saved us!>Look at actual prices in supermarket>They're still sky high???
>>1392008>You know correcting a mistake doesn't mean you didn't fuck up in the first place.Like you fucked up by trying to be a smartass. Is 5 more than 3? Yes or no.
>>13920135 is more than 3. It also isn't 1.75.But please keep explaining how Trump freezing CDC research funds helped the situation at all.
Fantastic job President Trump. Briben caused this problem. Briben failed to fix the problem. President Trump, you succeeded where he failed. The entire nation is proud of your quick and effective work.
>>1392017>5 is more than 3.Good job. See? These after class sessions are making progress.>But please keep explaining how Trump freezing CDC research funds helped the situation at all.I never claimed he did or didn't, you goofy bitch. You're the retard who came in here saying>Literally the thread image shows the tripling happened under Trump after he took office.in response to >egg price nearly tripled under BidenWhich that anon is absolutely correct by the way, as I pointed out with>NTA, US Bureau of Labor Statistics clearly shows it skyrocketing from Oct 2024, from $3.37 average to $5.90 in February.But instead of taking your L and moving on, you decided to double down with>3X3 does not equal 5 anon. See me after class.... How'd that work out for you? Now bend over the desk and take your paddling.
Show the rest of Biden's term.
>>1392020Good post
>>1392025I told you to stop replying to me.
>>1392010In case you hadn't noticed, the Trumpbots on this board live in their own bubble world of distorted facts and Russian disinfo.
>>1392020...anon you realize you still said 3.37 to 5.90 was tripling.Also, Egg prices also tripled under Trump in 2020. It's not uncommon for an outbreak to happen that affects pricing. What is uncommon is suspending research grants amid said outbreak. Outside of that both sides have been giving way too much stock in how much of an effect the president has on this. Neither Trump nor Biden can control when a bird flu outbreak happens, and neither Trump nor Biden can control when the results of said flu fully subside.
>>1392035Not him but you're bad at damage controlhttps://www.nbcnews.com/politics/doge/usda-accidentally-fired-officials-bird-flu-rehire-rcna192716
>>1392035>anon you realize you still said 3.37 to 5.90 was triplingWho said this link to the post
>>1392037See, this is a prime example of what IS Trump's fault. Right now we haven't had a outbreak of flu in two weeks, because all the infected flocks have been culled and farmers have been careful since. However, we also have no defense against the next outbreak or any way to prevent further ones, which IS a fucking problem. It's not an active effect on prices (at least in terms of how high they are now) but it's effectively a ticking time bomb waiting to go off. And Trump is letting it sit there instead of taking steps to prevent it from going off.
>>1392010>The Biden economy is the best in decades!>Look at actual prices in stores>they're the highest they've ever been???
>>1392041>We haven't had an outbreak in 2 weeks!>But just trust me, 2 more weeks, it's going to happen and it'll be the big one. 2 weeks I hope you get culled next for being so diseased, a government really needs to do something to protect others from your illness
>>1392044Hey anon do you not buy insurance?>'Storm damage insurance', yeah, like that's ever gonna happen. I've been living here for months and it's never happened!
>>1392041I wonder how Elon firing the inspectors for bird flu and then hastily trying to replace them might have affected the stats.
>>1392045Wow it's just one wild tangent after another with you
>>1392046Well at face value firing those people seem to be correlated with a drop in egg prices, but I don't think that's what you were aiming for here
>>1392050I mean, if it is that raises a question; is the virus ACTUALLY gone or did new, incompetent inspectors miss it?
>>1392049You know ideally the government should be preparing for if another outbreak of this highly infectious strain appears, right? That's like, the whole job of the CDC? And this applies to like, every infectious disease on the planet?
>>1391885>CDC>treatments>trust the soience
>>1392079who are we supposed to trust, paid faggots like you who lie all day. back to facebook for more boomer baiting shill
>>1392052They were so well prepared this last time it literally didn't even matter if they existed at all
>>1391857RFK is allowing eggs from diseased chickens
>>1392082>This sudden house fire wasn't doused fast enough. Take away all funding from the Fire DepartmentAlmost like it takes time to develop means of treatment for a disease strain that only recently propped up.
>>1392100>Almost like it takes time to develop means of treatment for a disease strain that only recently propped up.They had like 2 years, this started in 2022. What the hell were they doing? Trump rolled out a vaccine for covid in like 9 months
>>1392124didn't get to the US until 2024 retard. Shockingly there's more than one disease active at a time and they tend to prioritize the ones in the country.
>>1392125>didn't get to the US until 2024You are lying.H5N1 appeared in 2020 with the first case in the US in 2022.
>>1392127US had a single human case that they weren't even sure was someone who got infected as much as someone who had the virus in their nose instead of their system. Either way, the guy was isolated and asymptomatic, and it wasn't until 2024 that outbreaks started happening in the poultry industry.
>>1392128>US had a single human case that they weren't even sure was someone who got infected as much as someone who had the virus in their nose instead of their system. Either way, the guy was isolated and asymptomatic, and it wasn't until 2024 that outbreaks started happening in the poultry industry.You're wrong as fuck do you even see if you're right before you make stuff up? https://www.cdc.gov/bird-flu/avian-timeline/2020s.html?CDC_AAref_Val=https://www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/timeline/avian-timeline-2020s.htmCommercial turkey farms February 2022
>>1392131There was the singular turkey farm outbreak in 2022 but from there on it was restricted to singular cases until it exploded to mini-pandemic territory in 2024. One infected flock doesn't garner the same level of concern as it sweeping over the entire industry. You may also remember a lot of industry resources still being a bit tied up with a certain OTHER virus that year.
>>1392131do you even use grammar? esl?
>>1392139You know when somebody points out you're wrong after they've demonstrated you're just making stuff up, you could take it a little more gracefully
projection o clock already?
>>1391955Post your hook nose, jewy jewington
>>1392143I wasn't aware of the 2022 case but this wasn't an actual rapidly-spreading concern until 2024. It doesn't seem to have been a massive flock either considering the CDC mentioning it in their timeline is pretty much the only mention of said infected flock online.
>>1392154It's amazing that Trump is the most pro-jewish president in history. He has Israeli settlements named after him in the Golan Heights.
>>1391857>"Day One">"er, I meant Day 50. Oops."Trump lied, chickens died.
Why even bother talking to lefties at this point? They lied endlessly about the Biden economy from every microphone they could reach. Egg prices are just some petty bullshit they can toss in Trump's face. It's not an actual stance. They resent losing on the economy, and they're mad they can't gaslight you into believing an obvious lie. They never actually cared about this, and they'll just ignore it now and move onto their next attack vector.
>>1392186>losing on the economy>Trump casually makes the DOW sink 3k in two weeks
>>1392186>Why even bother talking to lefties at this pointIf nobody calls out their lies they are just going to feel emboldened
>>1392187Yes, they lost the election because of the Biden economy. Exit polling clearly showed this.
>>1392191The problem with this is that Biden was in a shitty situation; it's post covid, there is no good outcome. No matter what you're not getting things back to pre-covid levels, and not getting back to pre-covid levels is going to be judged as a failure. The only thing you can do is prevent a recession, and in terms of that, he did well enough. Not amazing but we didn't hit a recession. The thing is, people are stupid and don't understand that. So they vote Trump in thinking he can magically improve the situation because "hey, Biden couldn't get us back to pre-covid!" not recognizing Trump's plans, no matter how charismatically or confidently he says them, are fucking stupid. And now they're all realizing that as every tariff threat sends the market into freefall and companies are facing massive uncertainty because of Trump not even being able to commit to tariffs all the way.
>>1392193if its so difficult whys Trump basically fixed the economy within a few weeks of taking office?
>>1392193Which think tank writes your material for you?
>>1392195He's right you know
>>1392193>every tariff threat sends the market into freefallSp500 is only down 3% there is no "freefall" as much as you'd like one to be. The market kneejerks even more than you tards, but what's different about it is that it actually recovers quickly, while you people remain terminally broken
>>1392196No, you are not.
>>1392193>The problem with this is that Biden was in a shitty situation; it's post covid, there is no good outcome. Right. Lie to win. None of them would say this until afterward. Gaslighting people into disbelieving what everyone already knew.
>>1391897but the price of eggs did not go down
>>1391890Trump could genuinely shit in their mouths and they would glad lap it up as Elon steals their wallet. Its odd how we got here.
>>1392194>fixedHow is it fixed?
>>1392197>No guys, losing 3k in about a month without any kind of worldwide catastrophe going on is completely normal! Look, it went slightly back up, we're basically fine!
>>1392194A reminder that it wasn't a week since the DOW went down 650 pts, dipshit
>>1392203>the price of eggs did not go downPlease see the chart
>>1392217It. Did. Not. Go. Down.
>>1392227Chanting that doesn't make it true. Please see the chart: https://tradingeconomics.com/commodity/eggs-usNovember 2024 levels right now. Prices are plummeting on eggs
>>1392235Look up the actual price of eggs in the store instead of a chart retard. If I went out right now to get eggs, they still cost $5-$8.
>>1392186I'm a lefty. Let me be honest with you. While you're right that democrats are going to hate Republicans regardless and Republicans hate democrats regardless and each will use whatever attack vector they can. The economy largely doesn't have anything to do with who is president. The economy is global, regardless who is president of the US, The price of oil is affected by policies in Canada, or the price of honey can go up or down because of weather in China. The price of eggs has nothing to do with Biden or trump. Trump is attempting to lower the price by cutting health regulations concerning eggs to increase the supply and thus lower prices. However, economically speaking, that isn't really lowering the price because you're not lowering apples for apples. The quality of the eggs are different which is information not captured by futures trading.Consider if the price of steel pipes are high. You flood the market with cheap Chinese steel piping that would otherwise be illegal. If you don't differentiate between cheap and quality steel piping new cheap Chinese piping is cheaper so it appears that the price of Chinese piping declined. However, if the price of the quality piping that was the initial piping that went up in price never goes down. The pipe of piping never went down. You're just replacing good piping with lower quality cheap piping for the same price as the previous expensive piping.
>>1392235Yes it does. Because the price of eggs did not go down. No matter how many times you think it didn't.
>>1392186>Why even bother talking to lefties at this point? They lied endlessly about the Biden economy from every microphone they could reach.Calling the kettle black, you fucking retard.
>>1392080>this retarded vaxxxhead actually believes in germ theory
>>1392253>If I went out right now to get eggs, they still cost $5-$8.Isn't that exactly what op image shows?
So when are we actually going to see that price drop? It’s been 8.50~ a dozen at my grocer for awhile, probably all month.
>>1392360I see them right now on walmart.com in my zip code for $5.50 for a 12 pack, 3 different brands
>>1392361Walmart's have been 5 for a dozen 8 for 18 eggs even at the peak price.
https://www.huffpost.com/entry/donald-trump-egg-prices_n_67ce541be4b0bf4ec79c2d01"Lowered the egg prices", though. What a retard.
Sorry I've been gone a couple of days. What I miss?>>1392035>...anon you realize you still said 3.37 to 5.90 was tripling.Oh really? Where did I say that? Quote me. Now.>Also, Egg prices also tripled under Trump in 2020.Holy flying goalposts Batman! We've gone back in time. I could've sworn we were on the 2024/2025 time frame. What the fuck does this have to do with the spike in egg prices starting in 2024?
>>1392262>The economy largely doesn't have anything to do with who is president. The economy is global, regardless who is president of the US, The price of oil is affected by policies in CanadaAbsolutely fucking incorrect, and I'm tired of hearing this cope from lefties like you saying >DURRRRRR DA PREZIDUNT DUN CONTRUL GAS PRICES DURRRRRRRWhen his FIRST DAY ONE actions were to attack domestic oil production - as he promised multiple times, before winning the election, that he was going to end fossil fuel companies.>shuts down keystone>halts development in Alaska>halts development in the gulf, until a judge smacked him and told him he couldn't do that>increased taxes, royalties and fees >increased EPA restrictions>increased COVID restrictions which affected transportation>pushed green energy deals that went nowhere>banned trade with RussiaAnd then when the prices got out of control he went on his knees to OPEC to beg them to increase production, only for them to laugh at him, so he had to grow crawling back to those same domestic oil companies he fucked over - just to get us back on the oil production trend we were already on pre-covid. Not that any of that stopped you from bitching about DURR RECORD PROFITS DURR and blaming them for the cost of oil - as if you're completely blind to the fact that Trump was the COMPLETE OPPOSITE in his first term and loosened restrictions on oil, which then led to the lowest prices along with the lowest cost of living in 2019.But yeah the president doesn't have any influence on the economy, right?
