“Remarkable Reversal”: CNN Stunned as President Trump’s Prediction Proves True
Liberty Daily ^ | 05/14/2025 | Thomas English

CNN dismissed President Donald Trump’s claims about falling grocery prices just weeks before government data confirmed the sharpest monthly decline in food-at-home costs in nearly five years.

The latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) showed the food-at-home index dipping 0.4% in April — the steepest drop since September 2020 — with egg prices alone falling 12.7%, the biggest one-month plunge since 1984. Those numbers landed Tuesday, the same day CNN Business conceded the president’s previous claims about egg prices are “true now.”

Gas prices are the main indicator.

$3.45/dozen here. Down from about $6. Got a ways to go though.

$3.47 here down from over $6 at their high.

The delusional are always shocked when Truth crashes through the delusions.

What most people have failed to do is change their paradigm relative to prices.

Store-bought bacon? Haven’t bought it in 6 years because I like what I make at home better and it just so happens homemade is about half the cost anyway. And since I don’t care for woke entertainment, I have more than enough time to make it even if most of the process is waiting for the cure to do its magic.

And as for eggs.....never paid more than $5.00 to the lady down the street for 18. And having learned how to waterglass them, we keep about 6 dozen on hand. The side benefit being that they no longer have to take up fridge space.

"with egg prices alone falling 12.7%"

Not hard to report based on where they started.
