Trump needs a big win on this so he can shut the mainstream media up once and for all.
Egg prices just cracked a new record, and millions of Americans are feeling the impact at the checkout line.
According to fresh data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the average price for a dozen eggs in March jumped to $6.23—up from $5.90 in February. That’s the highest national average ever recorded.

🦠 Why Are Eggs So Expensive in 2025?
The cause? Avian flu outbreaks have devastated the egg supply across the country. Fewer hens mean fewer eggs—and higher prices.
But help may be on the way. The Trump Administration had already warned about a potential spike ahead of Easter and moved quickly to allow emergency egg imports to soften the blow.
💬 Trump: “We’re Bringing Prices Down—Biden Let This Happen”
Eggs have become a symbol of inflation, hitting families right in the wallet on something as basic as breakfast.
President Donald Trump—back in office and focused on fixing the economy—blasted Biden’s failures, saying Americans are still recovering from the price chaos created under the previous administration.
Trump highlighted recent wholesale egg price drops, promising that relief is on the way.
🥚 Why Haven’t Prices Dropped Yet?
While wholesale egg prices dropped in mid-March, that wasn’t enough time to move the needle on retail prices for the full month.
Grocery stores are often slow to pass savings down to consumers. Experts say the Easter holiday rush kept demand high, and that helped keep prices inflated at retail.
📉 “We could see prices fall soon, but not overnight,” said Dr. Jada Thompson, agricultural economist at the University of Arkansas.
📉 Overall Inflation Is Cooling — Thanks to Trump’s Economic Reset
The good news? Overall inflation is down.
Consumer prices rose just 2.4% in March compared to last year, according to the Consumer Price Index. That’s the lowest level since September—a major milestone for the Trump White House.
💼 Trump’s Tariffs: Fighting for American Workers, but Will Prices Rise Again?
President Trump rolled out a 10% baseline tariff on dozens of foreign competitors on April 2. There’s a temporary 90-day pause for some nations, but China still faces a massive 125% tariff.
Some economists worry tariffs could push prices up again—but others say it’s a smart trade move to protect American jobs and agriculture.
🇺🇸 White House: “Golden Age of America Is Underway”
Karoline Leavitt, Trump’s press secretary, posted on X:
“With inflation cooling and job growth on the rise, America is entering a new era of prosperity. President Trump is steadily reversing the economic harm left behind by the Biden administration.”
She added that prices are falling across the board, from car insurance to prescription drugs.
📆 What Happens Next?
More economic data is expected in the coming weeks, which should reveal whether the egg price drop at the wholesale level is finally reaching consumers.
For now, many families are keeping an eye on the grocery aisle—and hoping President Trump’s economic policies continue to crack down on inflation.
