Trump Explains The Word ‘Groceries’ to United Arab Emirates
President Donald Trump felt compelled to explain the term “groceries” to the UAE President — Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan — during a live broadcast of a conversation between the two global leaders.
Trump reiterated many points he’s made during political rallies and speeches to other Arab leaders. This moment stood out because the US President seemed obligated to describe what he called an “old-fashioned term” — groceries.
“Costs are way down, groceries are way,” Trump began. “They have a term grocery. It’s an old term, but it means basically what you’re buying: food. It is a pretty accurate term, but it’s an old-fashioned sound, but groceries are down,”
Trump never described who the “they” is that has the term groceries because it’s a widely used term for anyone who, you know, shops for groceries.
“Costs are down, eggs are down,” he continued to ramble in a notably low-energy tone. “They were, first week they were hitting me with eggs were up 200% and now they are down to a number that is amazing with down 97, 98% from where they were. And everybody, they said, you won’t have eggs for Easter. Well, everybody had eggs for Easter at a very reasonable price.”
It’s not clear who in the UAE was interested in the US egg prices, but that did not deter Trump from continuing, bringing up an even more bizarre topic: the White House Easter Egg roll.
“At the White House, we had our little Easter egg roll and hundreds of thousands of eggs purchased,” he continued on his tangent. “They said, You have to go out and buy plastic eggs. That didn’t work out. So we’ve done a real job.”
He concluded by blasting the previous Biden administration and expressing great praise and almost fealty to the UAE president in a manner that it had been any other president, there would be outrage on conservative media outlets.
