President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris’ disaster-plagued administration is coming to an end thanks to the votes of Americans fed up with rising prices. The effects of their inflationary economic policies, however, will continue to hurt the people who voted their regime out of office — especially as those constituents gather to give thanks this Thursday.

A new survey from the American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF) found that Americans planning to serve a feast to 10 of their nearest and dearest will pay more for their food this year than they did before Biden took office.

The turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes, rolls, peas, cranberries, veggies, and pumpkin pie with whipped cream that traditionally grace dining room tables on the fourth Thursday of every November will cost consumers $58.08. Those shoppers suddenly optimistic about the future of the country and economy under a different administration and decide to splurge on boneless ham, Russet potatoes, and frozen green beans will pay an additional $19.26.

While the 2024 estimate is technically lower than the $61.17 total projected in 2023 and the $64.05 recorded in 2022 thanks to small year-over-year price drops for turkey, sweet potatoes, frozen peas, mixed tray veggies, pumpkin pie mix, pie crusts, and whole milk, it is still 19 percent higher than the feast prices recorded under President Donald Trump in 2019.

As AFBF noted, “two years of declines don’t erase dramatic increases” and the record-breaking prices that strain Americans’ pocketbooks.

The White House, Democrats, and their accomplices in the corporate media spent the last four years trying to cover up the record-breaking price hikes caused by excessive spending.

In the leadup to Election Day 2024, they banded together with economic “experts” in an attempt to convince Americans that inflation was “cooling” and “slowing.”

In October alone, however, inflation rose again for the 45th consecutive month. The cost of food specifically jumped up 2.1 percent, causing price increases in the cubed stuffing mix (8.2 percent), whipping cream (4.7 percent), dinner rolls (8.4 percent), and cranberries (11.8 percent) Americans rely on to pad their Turkey Day menus.

“We are seeing modest improvements in the cost of a Thanksgiving dinner for a second year, but America’s families, including farm families, are still being hurt by high inflation,” AFBF President Zippy Duvall confirmed in a statement.
