He can’t believe the cost of butter! (Yeah, I did.) It looks as though people’s assumptions about those who inhabit the establishment propaganda media are true — they are out of touch with the struggles of everyday Americans.

In a “Morning Joe” segment on Thursday where they were speaking about President-elect Donald Trump’s election victory over Vice President Kamala Harris, the topic of the cost of butter came up as co-host Joe Scarborough was giving an anecdote. That's when his wife, co-host Mika Brzezinski, chimed in with a wake-up call for her hubby.

“A few weeks ago, three weeks ago, somebody who was going to be voting for Kamala Harris came up to me and said, ‘Oh, my God! Trump’s going to win.’ I go, ‘Why is that?’ He goes, ‘I just, I went to the grocery store, butter’s over $3.’ I kinda laughed and I said, ‘Well, that’s kind of reductive, isn’t it?’ Said it to myself. To him, I smiled and I said, ‘Good point!’ But, everything we’re hearing —“

That’s when Brzezinski piped up.

“It’s $7,” she said.

“What’s that?” Scarborough said puzzled.

“I’m just saying,” Brzezinski followed up. “It’s seven.”

“Butter is $7?!” Scarborough incredulously asked.

“Yeah,” his wife said like it was a no-brainer.

“What, is it framed in gold?” Scarborough said bewildered.

 

Obviously, it doesn't matter what kind of butter you’re buying. Some can be as low as $3, and some butter can get a little pricey.

For context, I prefer Kerrygold butter, which is currently $5.99 for two sticks at my local grocery store. So, that’s $3 a stick. Before President Joe Biden took office, the same package cost around $4, a whole dollar less per stick.

You might want to rejoin the real world, Joe, and realize that the policies of the people you blindly follow have done this to the country and the REAL people that reside within it.
