Wed Sep 25 01:58:59 UTC 2024: ## Trump Blames Harris for High Egg Prices, Citing $5 Increase Since Biden Administration
**Washington, D.C.** – Former President Donald Trump has blamed Vice President Kamala Harris for the current high cost of eggs, claiming they are $5 more expensive now than they were when he was in office. In a campaign ad released on Tuesday, Trump stated that eggs were affordable under his presidency and have become drastically more expensive under the Biden administration.
Trump also claimed that salmon was priced at $4.99 per pound during his time in office. However, he offered no specific evidence to support these claims. The ad focuses on hammering the economic woes Americans are facing, blaming Democrats for inflation, particularly the rising cost of food.
While Trump cites a dramatic increase in egg prices, experts suggest that the underlying causes are more complex. Supply chain disruptions, avian flu outbreaks, and increased demand have all contributed to the rise in egg prices, according to industry analysts.
Despite these factors, Trump continues to pin the blame on Democrats, highlighting the issue in his campaign rhetoric. The extent to which this will resonate with voters remains to be seen.
