It’s not even exaggerated, here’s some on sale eggs… Basic store brand too.
I reject your reality and substitute my own… MAGAntra
Nobody but old farts knows Mr. Magoo. MAGAt sounds like maggot.
I’m in my 30s and definitely know who Mr Magoo is. I think they used to rerun it on Cartoon Network when I was a kid.
I feel like using that quote as a “MAGAntra” is an insult to Adam Savage.
It’s frustrating cause even when republicans are complaining, they are already being hypocrites from the shit their politicians did last time.
It’s a vicious cycle fucking cycle of hypocrisy.
If anyone wants to print there own I made these a while back
This is blatantly false. Clearly MAGAts would never touch an econ 101 book because they’re too dumb to be able to read.
And they would 100% blame the current price on Biden. Or Obama
Yes, yes, and yes. This is exactly what I’m seeing happen.
Those right leaning folks who were most vocal about how Biden was at fault for the last time egg prices went up are now suddenly fully willing to blame it on bird flu and not worried about it because prices will come back down soon. And already the increasing rate of inflation isn’t the president’s fault, inflation is high all around the world, there’s little the president can actually do to control it, and it’s actually Biden’s fault. Funny how that works.
The price of eggs has nothing to do with the president. Bird flu is literally the explanation.
Over 41 million domestic birds have been culled in the past two months.
I mean. He is also taunting the NIH, CDC, and WHO. That’s gotta account for something, right?
He does have some control there. I’m sure bird flu containment would be a bit better handled without kneecapping the CDC.
Yeah buddy we all know this. We knew it then. We knew he was lying. He promised he would lower the prices of eggs day one. He’s a liar. But he made the promise, so as stupid as is I’m going to keep holding him to it. I’mma keep bitching.
It’s a good time to remind everyone that then-VP candidate couch fucker JD Vance stood in front of a display case of eggs saying that they were expensive as $4 when signs behind him clearly show the price of $2.99
I’m all for knocking down Vance for saying obviously non-factual shit, but this is a terrible example. He’s not looking at any pricetags there except the ones behind him on the right (his left), very briefly, which are all, actually, around $4. He’s shooting from the hip and uses the realistic price that came to mind and may even be the average price where he lives.
There’s lots better examples. This isn’t one.
Yeah man, the high profile person in a situation that was easy to rehearse and hard to fuck up definitely just misspoke in a way that affirmed his beliefs and spread misinformation to millions of Americans, strengthening his team’s claim to the throne.
It was totally benign and nothing negative happened recently that was directly tied to misinformation like this.
The dude legit said he will manufacture outrage as much as necessary. I’m not denying that.
He looks over his left immediately before he says that, where there are pricetags for $4/dozen. Even one for $5.
He’s not wrong, he’s not even hyperbolic.
If you’re looking for an example of misinformation…I guess you could call this that, but there are far more egregious examples.
I wouldn’t consider this an example of deliberate misinformation, though. I think it’s petty to say so, and I think that it hurts your cause if you’re saying “hurr durr he’s lying about eggs being $4/dozen” when there are literally $4 eggs behind him.
But he didn’t say “these eggs are $4 a dozen” did he? He said “the average price of eggs is $4 a dozen.”
A high profile person made an unsubstantiated claim in front of millions Americans and they ate it up. They believed what he said, not what he meant, even if it was a mistake
