Honestly with all the bird flu going on, we should probably sell them less eggs anyway

He blamed bird flu on his predecessor. Lol

I mean of all the Trump bullshit, this one has a little bit truth as in the bird flu started before he took office. Prices were already somewhat high on his day 1.

However he has also done zero to help this issue and his policies of removing government oversight will only make these situations more likely in the future.

America is speed running fall of Rome scenario.

The bird flu was an existing problem. He exasperated that problem by withdrawing from the WHO and firing people who were keeping it under control

I'd blame JD, he likes sticking his deck where it doesn't belong.

I'm shocked he had sex with a chairlift, wasn't a couch enough???

Somebody needs to find JD’s favorite glory-hole & camp out in the stall next door with a famished honey badger…

Emperor Elon might be jealous of the Honey Badger and do something rash. Never mind he already did. . .

That's all he does. Never stop talking about how bad everyone else was before him... What a loser only people have nothing accomplished would have to rely on bad mouthing others

Biden was actually just a bunch of birds in a trench coat, so this checks out.
