The 2024 election was full of some really weird moments.

There was Trump on stage dancing to Ave Maria and YMCA for a half an hour.

There was Hulk Hogan ripping his shirt off at the R&C.

There was J.D. Vance's extremely awkward donut order.

Just everything. Yeah, I mean a lot of glazed here, some sprinkle stuff.

Somebody's sending rolls. just whatever makes sense.

We all, unfortunately, remember those moments.

But equally weird, and maybe less remembered and actually fairly significant,

was the day in August when Donald Trump held a press conference

standing next to a table of groceries.

Let's go over some big facts and some very substantial truths about where we stand as a country

because we're a failing nation.

There were boxes of honey bunches of oats on the table and Maxwell House coffee,

but there was also bacon and sausage and two gallons of milk. It was definitely strange.

Bacon and sausage and milk do not belong outside for several hours in the month of August.

But the point Trump was trying to make was very clear.

Cereals are up 26 percent. Bread is up 24 butter is up 37%, baby formula is up 30%, and many items are up at much higher

rates than that.

Groceries, basic groceries, had gotten too damn expensive, and bringing down their costs would

be the focus of Trump's administration.

A vote for Trump means your groceries will be cheaper. So many people mention, I go in.

So many people mention groceries. That beautiful but simple word groceries.
