How huge will that be when they kick in?

Nobody can predict that for certain. It won't apply to every branch the same manner, at the same time or in the same intensity ... just think of 🍊's demenaor, then you get the overall picture.

Finally, something that won't have any impact on Americans.

Bahaha. So true.

The cult doesn't eat vegetables, so they probably won't notice.

I'm not sure redrawing Texas maps can overcome people's unbending rule on who's to blame for the most recent inflation.

The word tariffs sounded beautiful to MAGA until they found out who really pays for them...

Farmers voted for this? Farm labor shortages. Farm labor costs up 100%+. Farm equipment & fertilizer costs up 10%-25% from tariffs. Farm profit margins for fresh foods have tanked. Many people won't be able to afford fresh foods soon - if they're even available in your area. Canned & frozen next.

Stock up on food at Costco if possible. Costco memberships pay their profits so prices are always fixed at a very low markup over their cost. Other places like Amazon and Walmart are marking things way up because they can get away with it. Albertsons owns Safeway now and prices are high there too.

Bug Rich farmers get big fat checks from the Rapist in Chief: They know who butters their bread.. bsky.app/profile/ogre...

That's all gone in Trump's BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL. The farmers are crying for bailouts now but Trump even cancelled the bailouts and incentives Biden had already approved for them.

Answering the question, "how do Trump's immigration people sleep at night?" bsky.app/profile/blab...

last century had hoovervilles, this century is going to have donald gardens

I'm going to have to order more packs of 'Trump did that' stickers. I sprinkle those everywhere.

What will get worse is the inventory. Pretty soon those shelves will be empty.

Here in Pa. there are large sections of empty shelves on a regular basis.

Yup. It’s inevitable.

Here in Michigan, noticed they were shifting items around to fill space. And it’s still summer.

Yeah, that’s what stores do when they run out of something. They don’t want their customers to think they’ve run out of something. Only, this will get harder and harder to do with fruits and vegetables.

Now Trump's Hannibal Lecter delusions make sense! Isn't this how that movie got started? www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UPD...

You got this from FOX news?

WE THE PEOPLE SUPPORT OUR IMMIGRANTS 🇺🇸💙🇺🇸

wait till are mass shortages cause only partial crops will be picked due to lack of workers. Veggies gonna double in price. think President McDs cares about farming or veggies?

The Orange Idiot Rump’s new “numbers” people are going to announce that grocery prices only went up .09%, or some equally ridiculous, BS number. And the MAGAts will believe him, even as they empty their bank accounts at the grocery store every week…..

we need a general strike asap. and leadership. and demands.

yes most people don't realize: bsky.app/profile/ogre...

I think they will bankrupt the farms. Purchase some and force concentration camp prisoners to work them. They will begin building their own camps soon also. Aka Auschwitz.

“Do you like anal, Danny? Imagine this “plane” inside…” external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%...

It's already a reality here in FL, and now DeSatan is planning a second concentration camp in N FL.

Yes, they plan to bankrupt our farmers. 😢 www.snopes.com/news/2024/10...

I think they plan on bankrupting the entire country. That's the only way these blanket tariffs make sense. Because you can't tell me that the 🍊💩 motherfucker doesn't know who pays them. Even he isn't that fucking dumb. He just thinks that WE are.

The ick just keeps getting ickier.

JD is owned by billionaire cabal (eg, PayPal mafia) wanting their warped vision of new world order; JD is a useful idiot, conditioned, programmed, paid for, elected Manchurian candidate (waiting in wings).

Been thinking a lot lately about stuff: I recently found out my end is in sight. He has no idea who he is or what he believes in, as evidenced by his 4 name changes, for example. So many of us care so much what others think we never learn to self reflect. I found this today.

It’s not just about being black. bsky.app/profile/moon...

And this information was readily available before the election! Funny how these “I did my own research” idiots still voted for this!

They didn't research shit. While my brother in law is a nice person, he's not the brightest bulb in the pack. He actually believed Trump when he said he had nothing to do with Project 2025. SURPRISE!!!! 🤦‍♀️

There was a comedian on YouTube who was challenged by a Trump voter. When he asked her why she voted for Trump, she said because she couldn't vote for Biden because it was reported that he cheated on his wife with much younger women. I kid you not. These people are lost.

I can't even with those wilfully blind idiots.

Your brother in law was lying.

Or deluded.

If pressed to choose between lying or deluded, I'm going with deluded because I know he's on the Fox News tit. I think he's brainwashed like a lot of MAGAS are.

I have a bunch in my family too! It breaks my heart and I wait daily for them to snap out of it

I hate to say it, but I think the only way it will happen is for them to be affected personally by Trump's bullshit "policies." That actually seems to be working overall. I've never seen his approval rating this low before.

I feel bad about “hoping” they feel those consequences However, I have suffered such anguish watching them behave like zombies Most of my family cut me loose because of my support for Obama, so 🤷‍♀️

Don't feel bad. It's tough love that they need.

Don’t feel bad when shitty fucking humans get to experience the direct impact of their shitty fucking values We should celebrate

🫂

Financial times a month or so ago did an article on this where there are 50 identified concentration camps in the US with more to come. Mostly likely those people will be used as forced labor. Same as the camps in Germany/poland etc before they became extermination camps

Christians love concentration/death camps. We are a Christian nation now I hear. The death toll will be beyond belief.

Unfortunately I feel that is the ultimate goal if allowed to happen. Too many Americans still living in denial of what the true goal is even though it’s spelled out in project 2025 and Curtis Yarvin and Theil have made no secrets either.

At the end you need to import all your fod and because of all this tariffs it will costs that it is cheaper to eat gold

Jesus. This won’t end well. Unsustainable. This is the food supply.

It sure is, prep for hard times ahead, the complaints are a waste of hot air. Find community and support each other.

Potato, tomatoes milk. Everything that is on the farm, corn. Any of it is gonna go sky high and that's what he's wanting so that he can control the economy. We don't have nothing and he has it all that's his plan!

BUT.. what about TOFU??

Values news! I didn't expect that level of increase. Hope, like Newsom says, it makes more Americans wake up.

Theyre not deporting the workforce. Theyre kidnapping and holding them hostage. Selling them off for labour is the next step. Since they'll not be paid, we should expect less expensive produce....right?

How about the price of them effing eggs now, you dumb fuck MAGAs.

Trump has removed way less immigrants than Biden. Many of the people who pick food are migrant workers and many of them haven't been deported. I live in an agricultural area and see busses of them driven past my house. The price inflation is corporate gouging. Also, fuck trump and ice and such.

I’ll grow them in my garden and can them my self!

In addition to paying more, you'll likely notice a drop in variety/selection too, since suppliers will only be focussing on the most profitable harvests.

A bag of yellow potatoes at Walmart Wenztville today is almost $8 before tax.

Rising prices first. Food shortages coming...

Come on America, where’s all complaining & accountability now, you’ve been lied to, on a daily basis. Promises made, Promises NOT KEPT! Let’s see some sustained outrage!

Well, Donnie2Dolls doesn’t eat vegetables, so…..

Peruvian blueberry season

A friend who works in retail said they anticipate 1500 price changes a week for the foreseeable future. They sell Halloween crap too, but only about a third of what they normally order. They’re only selling inventory that was purchased before the tariffs—they don’t think consumers will pay ⬆️⬆️⬆️$

My daughter and I decided to take a trip to home decor, I love to just take the electric wheelchair and look at the Halloween stuff, it my little bit of joy in all this dark going on! They had a lot surprising to me

Did you know that Donald invented the word “Groceries”?

So much worse. People really don’t understand how much migrant labor provides all of the food - veggies and meat.

I’m so thankful for those who plant and pick our food and hate the disposable manner in which they’re being treated. I’m grateful also I’m super glad I was able to plant my first garden in 15(?) years. (Next year, fewer tomatoes and zucchini 😅)

No, not fewer next year.

It’s a great opportunity to support your local farms and farmers markets where applicable. Prices are practically the same now.

Good point. And probably a LOT healthier for us, too.

Unless your farmers are all MAGA like around me...I will pass on by

We have a mix here but definitely heavier on the left-leaning side.

Trump will bail them out eventually so they can wait for their money from him..Im not contributing to their loss...as they say "we voted for this"

We used to shop at farm market for years ‘til they sold Trump T-shirts last year. I don’t need corn and tomatoes that bad!

There's a Trump store on every corner here in Myrtle Beach...flags on trucks, flags on houses, billboards, ppl in MAGA hats everywhere...I hate to leave the house anymore.

My profound sympathy! I’m in a purple part of Colorado. I’ve been relieved to see many Trump flags taken down at houses around us. They used to be everywhere. Still lots of American flags.

We fly an American flag right next to our Pride flag. Hopefully that’s us taking our flag back!

🏳️‍🌈💙

I wish that was true here in Ohio

Plus, the very obvious problem of who exactly is going to be working on the farms now that I CE have scared away the workers. Good news for out of work MAGA fuckwits.

I’m gonna save all my crappy rotten vegetables to throw a Trump

That’s what happens when ICE runs amok in farm fields.

I don't think MAGAts consume much produce... When energy drinks and microwave dinners get more expensive, maybe they'll understand. But probably not.

I bought 12 red bell peppers today. Almost 18 bucks.

Stocked up on dry goods and canned food right after the 🍊💩 took office. I can't even look at strawberries without getting sick after watching ice chasing workers through the fields like something off planet of the apes. Also growing and canning my own stuff.

But, hey, the cost of eggs. 🙄🤯

Starvation dead ahead.

We buy many veggies from Washington and California and pay for transportation and weak dollar. I can't believe I'm about to become a Reluctant Farmer.

Vegetables are now a luxury item.

Well we can't eat meat$. Well we can't eat the vegetable$. I guess Trump expects us to www.youtube.com/watch?v=mc1W...

Fun fact: That is not trump laughing; that is the face of relief he gets while filling his ultra-flex Depends.

He has never laughed that hard at anything. He is a miserable human being, & only finds grinding others into the ground mildly humorous.

It's what happens when you deport all the veg pickers, and the produce rots on the fields. Basic supply and demand economics.

bsky.app/profile/abdo...

Are we great yet?

And too many of you were either too dumb, greedy or xenophobic to see trump for the fraud his is. After Alaska, all I can say is, karma. 🫤 It’s only month 7

He’ll never know it, he never grocery shopped at his life. He thinks it’s funny that groceries is still a word.

trump wants to start a war inside Mexico against the drug cartel which may cause issues with trade even farther.

The price of eggs came down and everything else went up. The food line’s will be so much longer this time than when covid was here.

If there's any left. We had at least 10 in my area...there are now 3 and I took a $200 load of canned and boxed goods and dropped it off today. They were asking for donations on fb yesterday.

Thank You for Replying.

Yeah, I've been thinking we all may need to do what my grandparents' generation did duri g the 1930's and 1940's. Plant victory gardens in our yards. If we live in apartments, we CAN do planters indoors. Like tomato vines.

in summer much of our produce is from the US. just wait till the fall conversion to Central & South American produce sourcing

Especially if Trump decides to bomb Mexico.

And when people begin growing and sourcing their own, they'll be sure to make that a class 1 federal felony.

This is why I buy local when possible and grow the rest, so that I can eat some now and preserve the rest. We’ve got enough preserved tomatoes and zucchetta in the basement for at least a year. Some of it is from 2023 and 2024. Thank goodness for unfinished basements

You could simply buy 3 years worth of vegetables.

Hmmm...it might be hard to Make America Healthy Again without fresh produce

So much food rotting in the fields while so many Americans go hungry — and others around the world starve to death.

What an asshole

And this is summer. Wait until you want traditional summer foods this winter when they are only grown further south.

Thank god I only eat spaghetti o's

No law, no health, no food, no logistics, no science. Millions of Americans dead by December. (& that was my guess *before* RFK Jnr). sorry.

Well said!

We'll be eating the pets.

It’s hard to eat healthy when whole food costs rise like this.

Not surprised white people have to pick the veg as all the brown people have been arrested by all the racists

See? He once said his administration was running like a "well-oiled machine!" Haaaaahaha! 🤣😆😂 The guy is messed up. Really. Doesn't think ahead for a moment. They fuck up and think about it post facto.

Trump doesn’t eat veggies

Don't forget about construction and tourism 😐

Yea by Christmas fresh fruit and veggies will be luxury items

Imported fruit prices are insane. Can’t imagine what winter will be like. But still the tariffs and ICE raids continue.

Trump’s tariffs are added to import price!.

But, he said prices are coming down and everything is beautiful.

Idiots voted for a moron!

It will also get much worse for crops subject to import tax. We import $billions in tomato, avocado, bananas, cucumbers, & more. A medium bell pepper or tomato, each cost over $1 now. As for local produce, we use imported fertilizers. Consumer costs will continue to rise.

Yes it is going to get worse. cbwrong.blogspot.com/2025/08/trum...

Good thing most Americans don't eat vegetables.../s

Then however will we meet RFKJr's and Dr. Oz's lifestyle standards to be worthy of healthcare? Oh, right, if what things cost affects you, you're automatically unworthy.

Trump plans to take Black people and make them slaves again.

they're already kidnapping people (immigrants) and shipping them to other countries as slave labor. and 1/3 of the country is ok with it

And any Dems. He hates us too, even if we're white.

See project 2025 for more details. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

we could just make the prison population so the work

when prices on everything skyrocketed under Biden you said it wasn't happening

bsky.app/profile/ckue...

We have to go to DC. We have to fix this.

Or one secret service agent could follow the oath we pay them to follow. But ACAB.

Well, our buddy said groceries are down, energy is down on and on in his interview with Hannity.

Trump orders come from the murderer he just met with. Destroying the U.S. is Trump’s assignment.

Damn and just when I started learning to eat them. lol Fer reelz! 🥭🥦🥑🫑

More to come. This all helps us to know when to fire him.

Too much winning.

💯

MAHA… except, no one can afford it

The GOP states are eager to cut SNAP and limit what SNAP can be used to buy, as they've wanted to for decades, as the healthier choices become unaffordable. They think the problem with rock bottom is there isn't enough sharp rocks at the bottom when you land there.

Let them eat cake?

groceries are getting crazy expensive especially fruits and veggies

Alternative Soylent Green. Let’s recycle the poor to allow the rich to eat well. 🤬 WTF. 🤪

Veggies are so expensive MAGA is forced to eat crow

Give another month and those shelves will be mostly empty

Gre-a-a-a-t job.

OMG! It’s bad enough here! How are you managing to exist?

He got elected. He doesn't care.

C’mon…does Mr Easter-Egg on Legs look like he gives a fuck about fruit and veg?

bsky.app/profile/forb...

Too bad the didn’t vote.

Let them eat oil.

They'll force the homeless people they round up to work the fields. Prove me wrong.

It'll be the homeless, the mentally ill, the disabled, and the addicts. RFKJ will get those "wellness retreats" available, and working on the farms will become therapy.

And they will do a tenth of the work if that. Not a viable solution.

Putting people into "wellness" camps, while limiting use of or access to vaccines, will lead to outbreaks of severe diseases like tuberculosis, covid, pneumonia, etc. Basically, it's getting undesirable people out of sight and out of mind to kill them quicker.

Very true. It's not like they had vaccination programs at Auschwitz.

Exactly. I'm not an expert on the Holocaust, but I think that there was some experimentation with certain drugs and people that were in the camps. That's on the complete other end of the spectrum from vaccination programs to keep people well.

Getting vegetables picked isn't the point. Getting the homeless out of sight, out of mind IS the point.

The effect is not just related to the workforce. Americans are now used to year-round access to fruits and vegetables that *used* to be seasonal but now are available year round due to importation. The effect of tariffs will start being felt in the produce section when our summer season ends.

Good news for fast food and Ozempic!

An ear of corn in NJ at ShopRite was 69 cents. This time of the year you usually can get a dozen for 2 bucks. Nobody to pick the farms.

MAGAturds don't eat vegetables, they only eat junk foods...

Thanks!

Soon you’ll go to the store for a $30 head of lettuce. But they are sold out. They’re hoping to get a shipment of $30 lettuce next week.

But then it will be $50

Most people on SNAP are white. So too bad those MAGATS had their SNAP benefits cut.

Facts.

trumps a liar and a pedophile

Correct. If they get deported, who is going to work that hard for so little? Nobody. Pay a reasonable wage, fruits and veggies just got more expensive. We probably should be paying more. Then, inflation increases(even more). Bottom line: Trimp sucks.

Who could have predicted this???? Well... just about all of us.

And in the long run this isn't going to make Americans healthier.

Yes, wholesale prices for domestic fresh and dry vegetables skyrocketed by 38.9% in July 2025 compared to the previous year, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. This increase is the largest since March 2022.

Well, since most Americans get too many vegetables in their diets...

Won't get me. I only buy vegetables retail.

Maybe he’s a Russian in disguise 🥸

Like they say - if he was a Russian asset working to destroy the US from the inside, what would he be doing differently? Anything? 🤔

Probably going about it slower with more caution because no sane person would think people would just accept this, but people are.

Have you seen the price of paper towels? Even the cheap ones are nearly $2 a roll!

I bought 3 plumbs yesterday, $2.85.

Vegetables? I thought those don't exist in Idiocracy.

Veger tables are commie socialist criminal implants anyway… /s

Indeed. They’ve been targeting Immokalee and Labelle, FL the past few days. It may be an ugly winter. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8BRbhBf/

We'll have to grow our own lettuce and tomatoes for our sandwiches!

The produce department is starting to look a little shabby too Signs of deporting the farm workers are starting to show

time to grow a set of tomatoes 😁

It's ridiculous. The tomatoes I used to pay $3 for are now $6. That is a 50% increase! I guess they'll be considered a luxury item now.

Are you sure it’s only 50%? It seems to me that $6 is two times $3, so it increased with 100%!

And the award goes to…

Oops. I must have been in shock, using Trump math, or both!

Besides the rising prices, SFLA is seeing 2/3 less inventory of fresh berries and what we do see is not up to pre-trump policy quality. 🔥FUCK YOU TRUMP🔥 #ReleaseTheEpsteinTrumpFes

And this is just the start of it

Shops have yet to fully unleash tariff pricing on us It’s bad and getting worse

Just wait when they’re available at all.

It's just beginning . . .

And worse coming

England had food rationing for over 20 years after the last fascist Christian tried to rule the world. Are we ready?

Nope

I paid over seven dang dollars for a sack of yellow potatoes that cost me a bit over four a month or two ago. I didn’t walk away from them, but seriously considered it.

Thanks Trump!!!!

"SOYLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE"!!!

Wow America's really getting great

One thing right-wingers never can explain is why they don't go after the people that employ all these "illegal" immigrants? Whenever I bring it up to one, they tend to try and change the subject. It's become clear to me that it isn't about them being illegal, it's about them being brown.

His base doesn’t eat veggies anyway.

Anyone who has shopped for groceries recently has surely noticed how expensive vegetables and fruits are. Insane price increases over the past several months. What did MAGA think would happen to food prices when the GOP carried out its “mass deportation” agenda against immigrant farm workers?

MAGA don't eat no gay vegetables! Its real American beef and coffee that they eat!

Times mentioned on Fox News: 0

Cheap Mexican imports out of season, America doesn't need it anymore ✅

Jfc.

Trump ask, what’s a vegetable?

Maybe Farmers Markets will be cheaper than grocery Stores! That would be amazing!

Let them rot

First time today, I really noticed the higher coffee prices!!

Yeah. I paid like 16 bucks for 12oz of beans. Horrible.

They don't eat vegetables.

#TrumpsAmerica

Source?

at least it wasn't an Afterpay ad

Tks for posting this - it burns me up that so many so called economists on MSM(I’m off there but do lurk a bit) say inflation MAY come later this year…doesn’t anyone shop themselves or look a their grocery receipts —4.99 up to 6.25/5.99 to 7.35/1.05 to 1.55.. Do the fluffing math ❌👑

If this is the thing that makes people change their mind about immigrants, great. But why? Human rights and dignity should matter. Maga are cruel, selfish monsters who make me ashamed of my country. Kindness matters.

And we have to IMPORT more produce, now tariffed. Duh #PresidentBrainFart

MAHA without fresh fruit and vegetables? Good luck with that MAGAts.

The only thing they have fresh is their bull shit.

Yep! Everyone in Trump’s administration is so damn dumb

We're going back to victory gardens!! Remember to donate your extra garden goodies to your local foodbanks!

And that’s in season when plentiful…

People are going to be reintroduced to the concept of "in season" as opposed to "year round" at the grocery store.

I live near source of Florida’s winter crops. We have local bargains, but only if you drive out of your way. I spend $80/year on fertilizer for fruit trees (& rising). Tree trimming costs $100s, but essential in hurricane season. If any storms, we lose our fruit. Farmers have same issues.

They're waiting for this next batch of undereducated US kids to become adults so they can send them out into the fields.

Hell, they're getting rid of child labor laws to speed up the process and shorten the lead time on labor.

You have to start 'em young to build the level of speed and skill necessary.

So in 20 years you’ll have experienced farm slaves and food production will equal 2024. Hard times ahead.

Hard times are ahead no matter what.

Probably mostly the boys. The 10 year old girls will be busy breeding babies in red states.

He was going to cut prices if groceries on Day One of his term. Another broken promise. He didn't do anything.

They are eliminating the entire workforce that harvests the crops! Such ignorance.

Dammit!!

Good. MAGA is going to have to starve to get the fucking point.

Can't wait to see what the new Food Plate will look like from Harvard after this:

I keep watching the price of Kerigold butter. It was $4.27 for 2 sticks a year ago, now it's $5.24. 20%+ increase. Eggs and buttered toast is one of my simple joys since I've been told it's fiscally irresponsible to want avocado toast.

Blackberries today were 50% more expensive than last week, I still bought them…but maybe not next time.

Now becoming the most valuable plants in my garden for a few more weeks.

My raspberries have come in late but better than paying $8 for a pint

At Aldis today $2, but blueberries were up.

Tariffs on Mexico!

Ouch!

Note to self: grow garden.

Self sufficiency is a myth. You’d starve to death inside of a year. A grow garden is great if you want a hobby and to show off your garden produce to friends and family or at the local fair. Human life in developed countries depends solely on mass production methods and industries.

You're wrong.

No, I’m not. The average human doesn’t know how to germinate a seed let alone tend a garden that could nourish them let alone a family unit. An acre is a decent sized plot. Your average person couldn’t organise it nor know what to plant when for a broad diet. By all means dabble. Don’t rely.

Ok

Loss of immigrant workforce, tariffs, climate change... a perfect storm

Still, they got crops to harvest. Who's going to plant them the next season?

Great! Now scurvy will make a resurgence 🤦🏻‍♂️

5 small radishes at Walmart $1.98

Here in the UK we had a similar thing with Brexit Food was going to be so cheap and fresh, all we had to do was vote to leave the EU We did and it's been a shit show ever since We haven't learnt our lesson though as we have poundland Trump waiting in the wings to save us all

Yep, I’ve seen this in the stores also. So sad on so many levels.

Bessent: it’s should be a one time spike in costs, most of which will be absorbed by the exporting country 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫
