    “The high price of eggs is in no way President Trump’s fault,” Kirk writes. “Almost all the increase took place during Biden’s final months in office.”

    This attempt at misdirection is so artfully sleazy I have to appreciate it. It should be taught in classes.

    It’s still misdirection, though. It doesn’t matter WHO was in office, or WHAT the price of eggs was. Trump campaigned on the promise to lower those prices.
