1. Worthy of some "I did that!" stickers

Trump eggs should be labeled with similar attribution.

[Roy Rolling]

32. The big picture

[bucolic_frolic]

36. "2-3-4" would have been an unassailable campaign slogan to run on. "Two! Three! Four!"

Harris campaign was fighting demons.

"Two! Three! Four! We want four more!"

[Jit423]

38. The billionaire-Trump-CEOs held the prices as high as they could to this day. They will drop them by tomorrow.

It's still Biden's economy until tomorrow. I would start with where things are before noon today because there were some price drops this past week.

[Think. Again.]

2. Great post!

This should be posted everywhere so anyone can easily see the damage trump will be doing in real time.

[TheRickles]

5. But will the data that will come out of the Trump agencies be reliable?

[Ruby the Liberal]

9. Exactly

Great point. Paul Krugman warned about that in his final NYT column.

[Lonestarblue]

17. No. Data will be manipulated to benefit Trump.

[DENVERPOPS]

19. That is precisely

why he is exclusively appointing "ass lickers" that will regurgitate anything and everything Trump directs them to do.............

Look at what DeSantis did with reporting Covid Deaths in Florida, along with many other RED states like Texas, etc etc

[3catwoman3]

28. The old saw, "Lies, damned lies...

...and statistics" comes to mind.

[lark]

3. Thanks for this info. I've bookmarked this to show to review tcf's calamitous destruction of our economy

Worst asshole in the world and he will be our president as of tomorrow. I'm freaking sick and so disappointed and worried!

[livetohike]

4. Bookmarked. Thanks for posting this. n/t

[A HERETIC I AM]

6. Eggs in the southeast are about to get a bit more expensive

Because of the bird flu and chicken movement and processing being shut down. I imagine that applies to egg operations as well.

[CousinIT]

7. Bookmarked. I have an entire notes file on this. Added this info as well.

Thank you.

[Ruby the Liberal]

8. Thank you! Adding National Debt $36.4T (current)

https://www.usdebtclock.org/

The coming unfunded tax cuts for the wealthy will send that one soaring.

[Silent Type]

10. I remember a GOPer ahole I worked with did the same thing when Clinton was elected. I guess it feels good, but

doesn't really make much difference in the scheme of things.

[lastlib]

11. Price of gas in my hometown is $2.759/gal.

I will throw a heart attack if The Felon doesn't send it through the roof.

[RainCaster]

24. It's $3.79 where I live

I wonder what it will rise to under Hair Fuhrer...

[Exp]

12. Thank YOU! Rec Rec Rec! nt

[peggysue2]

13. We need to keep and remember these stats as the dark years proceed

Because the excuses will fly and the coming Administration will attempt to flush the past and its significance down a memory hole.

Bookmark, save and be ready with facts.

[BoRaGard]

14. Nice economy. Be a real shame if a bunch of G.O.P. Billionaire Bros. screwed it over.

[petronius]

15. Weekly U.S. Regular All Formulations Retail Gasoline Prices (1/13/25) $3.043 / gal

Just to add another one that often comes up...

[NameAlreadyTaken]

16. The price of eggs?

That was all that mattered on November 5th.

[aggiesal]

18. Bookmarking, so I can throw it in the face of any MAGAt telling me that Pendejo45's ...

is a better economy.

Unfortunately, this might happen a lot.

[PennRalphie]

20. The economy is booming.

I’ve been saying this for months. Everywhere you go, everything is full. Restaurants, concerts, airplanes, cruise ships, hotels, malls. Everyone has money thanks to Biden/Harris and they’re spending it. But the focus was on a dozen eggs. People spending thousands to see a concert, but the shiny object was 6.00 eggs.

[calimary]

21. Hey, could we have a separate DU page to keep a running tally?

I’m betting things will fall apart as the Orange One gets focused on the care and feeding of his ego.

[isitreal]

22. Cheapest eggs in Colorado 7.5 for 12

At kings Soopers a dozen of thier cheapest eggs are 7.5 right now. Our chickens have been hit hard by bird flue.
Just wait we are a mutation or 2 away from this becoming infectious to humans. Moderna was just given $15OM? to developers a vaccine.. just in case.. I say about time when you look at what is going on with the dairy herds and the immigrant workers doing the close contact to take care of them. Just what we need with the orange guy and the anti vaccine lawyer that thinks he is a medical expert in vaccines.

[ReRe]

31. I believe I have seen a couple instances of Bird Flu already here in the U.S. n/t

[swong19104]

23. The problem is

that we have no assurance that the numbers going forward will have any validity. Once Trump puts political appointees in place, these numbers will be whatever they want them to be.

[liberalla]

25. Good info! Thanks!

Kick

[moondust]

26. An avalanche of bullshit is forming.

All the little toadies will fudge and invent the numbers to serve him. OR ELSE!

29. Thank you. Bookmarked immediately.

Could be interesting. Or, by four years from now, could be painfully obvious.

[SheltieLover]

30. Bookmarked. Doz eggs in TN $4.69 Aldis

I am going to put this info in my files and watch what changes during this moronic clown's Presidency. I expect trouble.
