He said he would bring down prices on day 1. What happened?
Also there's this, from NBC News:
On the campaign trail, Donald Trump vowed to quickly end the war in Ukraine. He’d do it in “24 hours” after taking the oath, he said, or even before his inauguration.
He said "starting on day 1". And it was something he said last summer, not realizing that a panicky Biden administration would kill massive amounts of chickens for no good reason.
shareBoth of your statements are false or purposely incomplete:
In August 2024, then-candidate former President Donald Trump delivered a press conference surrounded by packaged foods, meats, produce, condiments, milk and eggs.
“When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day One,” he said at the time.
Avian influenza, also known as bird flu, was first detected in 1878 in Italy. However, the first known outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) occurred in 1996 in Guangdong Province, China, with the H5N1 strain. This outbreak spread rapidly to other countries in Asia and beyond. Since then, there have been multiple outbreaks of avian influenza around the world, with the most recent occurring in 2022.
You are really one of the worst liars (easiest to debunk) on here. I wonder why you still post? (masochist?)
Oh, and the price of eggs has actually gone up since his inauguration!
Not to mention he didn't just say it was eggs or even groceries he'd stop inflation for.
He'd put an end to inflation and put his tariffs in place, and do them both quickly. He did some of his tariffs, but inflation is ticking up again. Shock.
You yourself provided the exact quote that verifies what I said. Are you familiar with English syntax? "Starting" on day 1 doesn't mean a switch is magically pressed and the prices drop that very day; it means that beginning on that day steps will commence to bring prices down. You seem to have a very childish notion about how things are accomplished in the real world, the kind that thinks "make it go away!" is a reasonable approach to problem solving. Adults understand that the wheels of progress turn slowly.
As for your Wiki copy-and-paste about Avian flu? So what? Was a massive cull of American poultry the proper response to the current strain of bird flu? Again, no. Again, it's the "make it go away!!" response that children engage in. The people in charge during the Biden administration are simpletons, first-order thinkers. Incapable of considering the carry on effects of destroying a vital food source. In the last 15 months, there have been a grand total of 67 human cases of avian flu with one death. That's 0.0000002 percent of the population that have even tested positive. And for that the Biden team ran around demanding the wholesale slaughter of fowl. Bringing the price of eggs back down requires the replacement of all those hens. Are you aware of basic biology and the time involved in doing so? It sounds like you're not.
Nope! He said it would take one day to end the Ukraine war and lower inflation.
You're Trump’s sucker 🤣
And just today Trump made more progress with Putin and ending the Ukraine conflict than Dementia Joe could manage in three years. More winning.
🤣🤣
You're dumb. Biden was trying to weaken Russia while funding the U.S. Military Industrial Complex which he did. Russia had to beg North Korea and China for help and Russia's military and economy are much weaker. Meanwhile the US replaced outdated military hardware with new. You're completely clueless about politics 🤣😂🤣
Trump is only helping Putin since both hate the U.S..
All Trump has done is given the murderous tyrant a chance for political kudos after years in the wilderness. Is this really going to be any more of a success than Trump's failure with North Korea last time round? And even if a deal is eventually struck, who is going to believe Putin's word, going on his past record?
shareAnd the alternative is? Has it not sunk in that even with the full weight of the Zionist Occupied Global American Empire against it, Russia won't be capitulating ever? Zelensky won't be marching triumphantly into Moscow. Are you one of those ghouls who wants the meat grinder to continue in perpetuity because...Putler?
Tell us, enlightened one, how this ends without Russian agreement¿
Remember, these are all the same imbeciles and shills complaining about the wars while supporting them at the same time.
You will not get an honest or straight answer from them ... And they will certainly not provide a practical solution to ending those wars.
No solution will be good enough for them as long as it is implemented by Trump.
Yup, three weeks in office and already ended both wars. More winning.
Promises Made, Promises Kept.
Trump is making progress in reaching a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine. You people started this war by voting for Brandon you have no room to bitch about Trump not cleaning up your mess as fast as you allegedly would want him to.
shareHe's Deplorable!
shareStarting on day one.
Biden had years to fix the inflation and end the wars. Thanks for admitting that Biden caused both. You're a sucker indeed.
He said he would put policies into place on day 1 that would lead to the price of eggs going down. You people spent 4 years fucking up the economy and you have no room to complain about Trump not cleaning up your mess fast enough. Just sit down, shut your mouth and stay out of Trump’s way. You don’t matter.
shareYou lie for the orange turd. The idjit could not articulate such a sophisticated sentence. And you lie about Biden too. From Econofact.org:
The average unemployment rate during the Biden Administration (February 2021 through May 2024) was 4.1%, with the highest rates of over 6% from February 2021 to April 2021. The unemployment rate remained below 4% in the 27 months from February 2022 through April 2024. This is the longest stretch of sub-4% unemployment since the end of the 1960s.
And get yourself educated on the stock market so you don't sound like your master ("a moron," as the 4-star general once pronounced).

In 2020, former President Donald Trump warned that the historic stock market boom on his watch would implode if voters replaced him with Joe Biden.
“If you want your 401k’s and stocks…to disintegrate and disappear, vote for the Radical Left Do Nothing Democrats and Corrupt Joe Biden,” Trump tweeted in July 2020.
It was an ominous warning from a president who, more than his predecessors, obsessed over market gains and viewed them as a real-time barometer of his success.
In reality, with Biden in the White House, the US stock market not only preserved those Trump-era gains, but generated even more massive ones for millions of Americans’ 401(k) plans, nest eggs and college savings plans.
The S&P 500, the gold-standard market index of 500 US stocks, has posted a compound annual growth rate of 14.1% from Biden’s November 2020 election through Thursday’s closing bell, according to veteran market strategist Sam Stovall of CFRA Research.
The market returns under Biden are the second best in modern history going back to 1945, Stovall found. The only stronger performance was during the booming dotcom days under former President Bill Clinton during the 1990s.

First learn to construct a response in proper English.
Secondly, The stock market did implode under Brandon. Yes at some points in went up but it was still an incredibly weak stock market and after it crashes it going up doesn’t mean a whole lot you idiot.
Everything under the Brandon/Kamala regime was worse than it was under Trump. He’s back to clean up your mess and the fact that you are bitching and moaning barely even a month into his presidency that he hasn’t’ cleaned up your mess fast enough is utterly pathetic. You’re in the back seat for now, learn your place. We won, you lost, get over it and seek help for your TDS.
You've got bad resources (Fox, by any chance?). Here's a summary from Morningstar (note the time qualifier, "since he took office")
U.S. stocks closed out Joe Biden's era on a high note as the president bids farewell to the White House.
The 46th president of the United States is bringing his time at the White House to a close with the S&P 500 SPX up over 55% since he took office on Jan. 20, 2021. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA advanced more than 39% over the same period, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite COMP jumped nearly 46%, according to Dow Jones Market Data.
Now STFU and stop lying (obviously you're the one with TDS, lol!)
No actually I’m citing the actual stock market and my memory. The stock market tanked big time under Brandon and now seems to be going up under Trump but you can’t make any kind of overarching judgment based on a few days. And lol every time the far left fake news peddles their lies and disinformation it’s always Fox that sets the record straight. Get out of your cult and start using your actual head.
share"Your memory"--lol. Typical deplorable.
shareYou’re just making up your own fantasies. You can’t cope with the fact that we kicked your asses last November and it turns out Trump is actually getting stuff done and reversing the damage that you fuckers inflicted upon us. If you’re a crazy libtard then that’s fine, but one thing I can’t stand is liars.
shareHey! Our resident "tRump" infant is looking to be taken seriously. Dream on widdle fella.
shareTrump has only been in office for three weeks while Biden had 4 years to fix the inflation but made it worse, and yet, you didn’t complain about it.
Your post is a concession that Biden caused a four year mess that Trump is trying to fix.
Your post demonstrates hypocrisy.
Your post proves that you are a true cult follower who expects someone to create a miracle at the wave of their hand even if it’s your opposition.
Your post is confirmation that TDSers like you lack the discernment to recognize sarcasm and hyperbole unless it suits your narrative.
TDS sufferers like you cannot admit that tRump has done nothing about food prices, not even addressed the issue, not once! (though he talked about it plenty while campaigning) Meanwhile his dementia is getting worse, leading him to make ridiculous claims about Panama, Greenland, Canada, and now Gaza. He has to let a substitute do the talking now in what passes for a press conference. His only policy goal is another tax break for the wealthy. He's looking worse and worse, physically. Will J D be able to do the job in a year or two? (My take is, he can't do any worse!)
shareThanks for confirming everything from my previous reply. Well done 👏
shareWhat happened was nothing. That's what and why should anything happen in one day like you assume?? How gullible are you?? I'm willing to bet that for all of this crying over the price of eggs, that you don't even buy them nor eat them and are just bitching about it because it's Trump, right?? I saw a dozen eggs for $4.50. Seems reasonable to me. How fucking cheap are you??
shareThese posts are boring and gay. Without Russia Russia Russia, you guys are just pissing into the wind.
shareSo you think the orange buffoon is not simpatico with Putin? From Cnn:
"Europe fears Trump-Putin ‘dirty deal’ as Ukraine scrambles for a seat at the table"
And you've already forgotten the damaging conclusions of the Mueller Report:
The investigation produced 37 indictments; seven guilty pleas or convictions; and compelling evidence that the president obstructed justice on multiple occasions. Mueller also uncovered and referred 14 criminal matters to other components of the Department of Justice.
Trump associates repeatedly lied to investigators about their contacts with Russians, and President Trump refused to answer questions about his efforts to impede federal proceedings and influence the testimony of witnesses.
A statement signed by over 1,000 former federal prosecutors concluded that if any other American engaged in the same efforts to impede federal proceedings the way Trump did, they would likely be indicted for multiple charges of obstruction of justice.
How's that pee in your face? 🤣😂
shareEgg prices are due to the Avian Flu, and not Inflation. Ive posted this repeatedly on this board. But you guys want to ignore the facts so that you can blame Trump for it. Well guess what? the prices are starting to come down, so I hope you are prepared to start kissing his ass. If you are going to blame him, you must give him credit for lowering the prices.
shareThose idiots are too deranged to give Trump the credit for anything. No cure for their TDS.
shareWhat they don't realize is that they are setting themselves up for failure by trying to assign blame to him. Since the price is not affected by inflation, but the avian flu, the price is guaranteed to drop once it passes, and it's already happening. Egglands Best are down to 3.49 in my area. So they are either going to have credit Trump for this, since they blamed him for it. Or they will more likely switch it up and say what I've been saying all along, that Trump doesn't deserve credit or blame, because it not related to any policy. but that would mean the premise of topics like this one were wrong, or just made in bad faith.
sharetRump promised to bring down prices on "day one." That's what people will remember--he failed (he's had almost 4 weeks now, "day one" x 28!
shareOh goody! More infantile "tRump" drivel from our resident child! Pathetic. You ever notice that even the fringe kook leftists here don't use htat idiotic moniker? Even they are more mature than you.
Enjoy Romper Room.
