Average egg prices around here never reached anywhere near $8.15. The peak was probably $5.99.

Kroger is selling a dozen large white eggs for $4.59 right now, which is only $0.40 less than the highest price I previously observed. Their more upscale Simple Truth brand is selling for $5.99, which ties the previous highest price I observed.

Trump suggesting he may invade Greenland using military force doesn't bother you from a morality standpoint? His exact quote is use of military force "is not off the table". Does that also mean he'd consider ordering a violent attack on Denmark?

Trump is the most vile person ever elected President. That's saying something, because both LBJ and Nixon were disgusting human beings.

I suspect you are fine with street abductions and imprisonment of visa-bearing college students by masked thug federal "law enforcement" officers without any sort of due process.
Trump is too stupid to know what "reciprocal" means.

If military force is used it would trigger a response from NATO forces. Does he even understand this? He would be responsible for starting World War 3

The article was talking about wholesale prices for eggs. It does take a bit for the retail prices to reflect wholesale prices.

Whether or not someone who is not a United States citizen is entitled to due process, especially if they are believed to be a threat and involved with terrorist groups, is up for debate.

Writing a viewpoint in a college newspaper that aligns with much of the rest of the world and doing a sit-in protest is not terrorism.

Ha... turns out it was all just practice for Trump's Schutzstaffel with those white van abductions when folks were spirited away in Portland during the BLM dustups. Welcome to the lead up for the main event...

It's merely the way he negotiates.

Everyone would be much better off if they took a look at what he accomplishes more so than what he says.

It wasn't so long ago that everybody on the left said they needed to pass legislation to solve the border problem. Now the problem is solved. No legislation needed. Just the new president.

I don't consider inhumane abductions of college students here on visas an "accomplishment."

I also don't consider disgusting verbal threats to peaceful nations a desirable negotiating tactic.
