A funny (see: sad and disappointing but not surprising ) part but not certainly the only funny part:

Boebert said she was “extremely disappointed in the bias” of reporter Ryan Warner’s questions about a third of the way through the interview, and she later battled with him over climate change and water, saying “there’s certainly a reason” she doesn’t “listen to CPR news.”

    She’s not wrong, she’s lying. And her lie resonates with the perceived reality of many viewers, who aren’t going to check egg prices to make up their mind.
    They’re just gonna get the warm fuzzy feeling that Brobert will do something about them.

      I’ve heard the magabrained who actually do go shopping for things like eggs claim ridiculously absurd numbers, or nod along to some other magabrain who is claiming absurdly high prices. They definitely know better, but they’ll go along with it anyway.

      And then there was that “JD” Vance standing right in front of a sign for egg prices, lying about the price of eggs.

      They are brazen liars.

        I used to work at a grocery store. I knew the prices of pretty much everything because I would ring everything up and do corrections at customer service. Prices are absolutely still way higher than pre pandemic. I’d say 30% more at least, with some items in particular having doubled.

        That has nothing to do with democrats though. Supply shock in Covid, bird flu for eggs in particular and then straight up greed / monopolistic grocery stores are the reasons we’re seeing higher prices. The Republicans will do absolutely nothing to fix these issues, but use high grocery prices as a dog whistle to rile up their base who are too uninformed about how anything works, and just eat that shit up. You can listen to any earnings call to hear these chucklefucks gloat about how they are working to find price (figuring out just how much they can squeeze out of people) while also having record earnings.
