Joe Scarborough visibly shocked after finding out what the price of butter is: ‘Is it wrapped in gold?’

MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough was visibly shocked when his wife and co-host Mika Brzezinski revealed how high the cost of butter has gotten in the last four years.

“A few weeks ago… somebody who was going to be voting for Kamala Harris came up to me and said ‘oh my God, Trump’s going to win… I go to the grocery store butter is over $3” the former Florida congressman said.

“I kinda laughed and I said well that’s kinda reductive isn’t it, I said it to myself,” Scarborough continued.

Fine demonstration of how out of touch these celebrities are with experiences and concerns of normal people.

They get everything delivered and they probably swipe once to pay the bill, without ever having looked at it.

“I’ve spent a couple of hours with Joe Biden, sitting, talking,” Scarborough said on “Morning Joe” on March 6, adding that the two spoke about the economy and inflation.

“I’ve said it for years now: he’s cogent. But I undersold him when I said he was cogent,” he added.

“He’s far beyond cogent. In fact, I think he’s better than he’s ever been intellectually, analytically.”


LOL, that can actually be a true statement.

House brand (generic) butter is $5.29 at my local grocer. Cost of living is lower here than where Joe’s colleagues live. Still much higher than it eas when Trump was POTUS.

I think Trump should gather the supermarket chain heads together along with the oil executives and ‘ask’ for a 10% price cut immediately. The payoff will assuredly happen with a robust market. By the time he takes office it will be all systems go.

What, is it framed in gold?”

No, Joe, it's framed in Bidenomics.

It isn't often such cluelessness is admitted on air by talking heads.

Mika knew the truth of the matter. Mika has been hiding the truth of the matter.

Unless they do a lot of entertaining, the grocery bill is probably the lowest expenditure in their household. It’s a big deal for us nobodies, however.

“It’s $7… I’m just saying it’s 7,” Brzezinski interrupted.

“Butter is $7… What, is it framed in gold?” Scarborough replied incredulously, with a look of shock on his face.

I suspect that, entertaining or not, their grocery bill is still the least expenditure in their home.

Scarborough sold his 7,826-square-foot house in New Canaan, CT for $3.69 million in 2017. He bought the home in 2011 for $4.6 million. Brzezinski has previously owned a home in Bronxville, New York, which she sold for $2.1 million in 2017 following her divorce from former husband James Patrick Hoffer. She sold a Georgetown, D.C. condo in 2017 for $985,000. She owns a $1.6-million mansion in Westchester County, which she purchased in 2016.
