With hamburger between 5 to 6 dollars a pound and rib eye steak 17 to 25 dollars a pound, Trump needs to bring prices down, which is America First.
How does that jibe with our tariff policy?

I don’t know where you live. But here in Woodstock, GA, our ground beef is 8 to $9 on sale to $10 to $14 regular price a pound, depending on grade. Steaks $14 to $20 on sale to $20 to $29 regular price.

93% lean hamburger at Walmart here (Knoxville area) is a few cents shy of $8/lb.
There’s more going on here than meets the eye. 5 years ago live cattle contracts were $1.06/lb., today they are $2.44/lb. The question is, “what else has contributed to such a huge runup in prices at the store?” The ranchers sure aren’t enjoying the benefit of these increased prices.
