That kinda of happens when you lie to people about those poor soybean farmers and initiate a program within the USDA that focuses specifically on increasing export of food products out of the country. Over 8 billion in beef left the country in 2023, over 10 billion in 2024, they are even selling the cattle out the door despite saying we don't have enough due to "climate change" and "droughts". When you create that kind of demand, prices spike. If Trump had said, "your steak, potatoes and eggs" people would have paid better attention. Foreign Agricultural Services, USDA/FAS, go check it out, they are shipping increasingly more products all the time. If you take and average out those increases, it would come close to that three percent inflation rate Trump said we'd be hard pressed to get rid of. Really, why sell it to Americans tax free when there's a mountain of gold to be had in exports. Not to mention all the restaurants that are closing to open capacity on the grid for data centers. The more companies, businesses, restaurants they can force to shut works to their advantage also, and their billionaire investors.
