“Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough was visibly shocked when his spouse and co-host Mika Brzezinski revealed how excessive the price of butter has gotten within the final 4 years.
“A few weeks ago… somebody who was going to be voting for Kamala Harris came up to me and said ‘oh my God, Trump’s going to win… I go to the grocery store butter is over $3” the previous Florida congressman mentioned.
“I kinda laughed and I said well that’s kinda reductive isn’t it, I said it to myself,” Scarborough continued.
“It’s $7… I’m just saying it’s 7,” Brzezinski interrupted.
“Butter is $7… What, is it framed in gold?” Scarborough replied incredulously, with a glance of shock on his face.
“It’s seven bucks…. it depends where you go,” Brzezinski acknowledged somberly.
A chart displaying NBC exit ballot knowledge displaying that 46% of Individuals really feel that their financial state of affairs is worse than it was 4 years in the past appeared on display as Scarborough continued to lament the nation’s battle with inflation.
“If you look at the cost of groceries, if you look at the cost of gas, if you look at the cost of things compared to four years ago it was a very simple answer for working class Americans,” Scarborough mentioned.
“Yeah!” Brzezinski shot again.
