Trump also took credit for lowering egg prices, which rose to an all-time high of $8.17 in March, before dropping to $3.22, still significantly higher than the $1.46 reported in April 2024, according to TradingEcomonics.com.
“They hit me the first week, ‘Eggs, eggs, eggs,’ like it was my fault. I said, ‘I didn’t cause this problem. This problem was caused by Biden. What’s the problem with eggs?’ And they said, ‘They’ve doubled it.’ Well, eggs are down 87% since I got involved,” Trump said. “And by the way — and there were plenty of eggs for Easter, which we just went through.”
Trump claimed he chose Moran for the interview because he had “never heard of him” and accused the reporter of “not being very nice” when he pushed back on several claims, including whether Kilmar Abgrego Garcia, a father deported back to El Salvador, had alleged MS-13 gang tattoos.
“Wait a minute, wait a minute. He had MS-13 on his knuckles,” Trump said as Moran attempted to move on to another topic several times. “It says MS 13.”
“That was Photoshopped,” Moran replied, which led to Trump claiming he was unfamiliar with the reporter.
“They’re giving you the big break of a lifetime, you know, you’re doing the interview,” Trump said. “I picked you because, frankly, I never heard of you, but that’s OK.”
