Trump screws his own voters with Thanksgiving disaster - Another Day - Brian Tyler Cohen [View all]

Brian comments on the conflicting narratives about Thanksgiving grocery costs in 2025 and how Trump's claims do not agree with reality.

Trump touts that Walmart's Thanksgiving meal costs 25% less than under Biden and presents this as evidence of economic improvement under his administration. However, the "cheaper" Walmart basket actually contains fewer items (15 vs. 21) and more store-brand products. The missing items include pecan pie, mini marshmallows, and sweet potatoes. Meanwhile, the Consumer Price Index shows grocery prices are up nearly 3% from last year.
