Chuck roast was 9.99/lb at Costco last week.

Chuck.


That’s a product unlikely to be affected by tariffs. Why so high?


Beef from Brazil, same place your coffee likely comes from. 50 % tariff for American shoppers.


It’s far more complicated than that. Yes, it’s fun to blame Trump for everything but there is a rats nest of problems with the beef industry, globally and in the US. The tariffs are the icing.

Stop drinking coffee.


Should we also stop eating? What a dumb thing to say.

Where do you think most of the beef Americans eat comes from?


Domestic cattle.

We buy Folgers and a can that used to be $8 is now $14.

For 22oz? I paid $16.99


Safeway had them for $12.99 the other day if you bought 5 or more. You bet I did.

He is such a fool.


Those trillions from tariffs are coming from Americans wallets!

Especially mine because I can't function without my morning coffee.

I don't know how Trump is personally profiting from the tariffs but I know he is. Half of that $7 increase, $3.50, is going directly into his pocket.

This is going to put small coffee shops/ cafes and small coffee roasters out of business. Trumps tariffs are a tax on the people.


Many small businesses are closing because of these tariffs.

Wait a second! Trump has been very clear about these things:
Tariffs benefit American shoppers.
Climate change is a con job.

So, it can’t possibly be the tariffs and no way it can be the “con” of a drought!

What is it??

We are paying for Trumps groceries so it's cheap to him. Let them eat cake!

So? I never buy coffee outside the house and now I’ll still pay more.
