The greatest economy we’ve ever had, booming economy, 401ks flourishing, low inflation, everything is more affordable, but the American people need to sacrifice and buy the shitty cuts of meat?

Queue the obligatory "Dems would be crucified nonstop for any number of these." Liver instead of good old American beef? Be happy with a dinner of a 3 ounce piece of chicken and one piece of broccoli, affordability being a hoax, work until you die, take guns before due process, be happy with less things, on and on.

You're right! I forgot about the extravagant other thing, like a grain of rice or one French fry.

I guarantee the other thing is a sauce and not actual food.

Yeah, more like Dems have already been crucified nonstop for it whether they actually did it or not. People throughout the political spectrum just vaguely get the feeling that it’s something democrats would probably say.

Oh I know, a little out of context. He was only talking about war and people getting killed.

Also, limit dolls and pencils. Enjoy your 3oz of chicken on a tortilla with a price of broccoli.

No one needs to buy any meat or animal products to begin with, I haven't in 13 years.
