“The United States has reached out to Denmark…”
You know, the country the United States wants to invade and forcefully take land from.
America: The dumbest rocks in the sock drawer.
This is a joke right? Something from the Onion? Why would any country help out Trump now?
It sucks that this is happening.
Food staples becoming a cost-prohibitive thing, regardless of who’s elected, is extraordinarily bad. I wish people could get past their reflexive need to point fingers and root for the other team to fail over this, because I’d think that wanting people to be able to eat is something we could all agree on.
Unfortunately things need to get bad enough that Trump loses his base or we’ll be stuck in this shit forever. Best just to bite the bullet and brace for the shitty hopefully short term until he pushes the wrong person and everything comes crashing down on him. It’s the only way forward that may actually result in improvement as far as I can see.
I thought the US didn’t need anything from anyone else? Isn’t that what you said?
“You will become part of the US.”
two days later…
“Bro my egg prices are high, can you help a brotha out?”
I’m not saying we should…
But negative tariffs on eggs coming out of the USA and ridiculous tariffs on eggs going into the USA would tickle my funny bone
I would love to see NATO countries (besides the US) band together and say:
”We will come together to support our great ally, so long as she saves herself. Upon the acceptance of President Trump’s and Vice President Vance’s resignation, we will provide the aid that our friend needs."
Trump could, in fact, be the hero here. He could walk away from the presidency with a win. For added measure, these countries could write lofty and wonderful articles about Trump’s selflessness.
We know he won’t.
Aside: I’m not saying Mike Johnson would make a good president. But let’s take this one thing at a time.
“On this trade war that HE started…”
Ok… but then it’d be truth for once 😅
Get bent, United States!
Meanwhile, the egg department in my grocery store is absolutely full not a single carton sold.
Nobody’s paying eight bucks for a carton they can rot.
Meanwhile I bought a pack of chicken breasts at 267 a pound which is the normal price.
There’s no shortage of chickens, there’s no shortage of eggs
Government: Runs into crowd of friends while winging haymakers.
Friends: JFC what the hell dude!?
Government: Fuck you, now give me your house. … … … Can you spot me $50 until payday?
America is basically the scumbag Steve meme from the early Internet.
charge us more, seriously
Time to educate Trump in the fine art of export tariffs.
European nations, please say that you will export eggs only when the idiots are out of power.
As a true American, don’t help us with eggs, it’l hurt your country in the long run. Let us suffer so we can get our heads out of our asses and purge the nazis.
Ask Canada… oh, wait!
WOMP WOMP WOMP, EH?
Just picked up 2 dozen local eggs for $9.99CAD.
Fuck kinda pricey bud. Where abouts?
That’s about $3 USD per dozen. Maybe not as cheap as it used to be in America, but closer than it is now. And from a farmers market, no less.
Local farmers market in 'Berta.
Oh ya! The fancy ones. They’ll cost.
I get Farm eggs, local, at my Grover for 3.79 doz. I can get the regular big corporate ones for 2.99-3.99 depending on where/day/etc.
Ya farmer’s markets are kinda pricey, eh?
I go downtown to FreshCo and it’s $3 CAD per dozen, bud.
Better conditions for animals cost money. I’d rather no one eat eggs, but it’s an improvement. Infustrial faming is a travesty.
I’ll pay extra to tell the guy who gathered the eggs i appreciate him.
This is why we HAD allies. Had. To assist with the largesse we consume as Americans. You don’t get to swing your orange dick around at the world, offending and assaulting every ally, and then ask for help.
