Re: Democrats Scramble to Criticize Trump White House Over Using Real Eggs at Easter Event

In a move that highlights just how far removed Democrats are from
everyday American traditions, critics on the Left attempted to stir
controversy over the Trump White House’s use of real eggs during this
year’s Easter Egg Roll. Rather than celebrate a return to a beloved,
time-honored custom, liberal commentators seized on the opportunity to
nitpick, proving once again that if President Donald Trump brings back
something wholesome and traditional, Democrats will find a way to be
offended by it.
 On Monday, the Democratic National Committee took aim at the Trump White
House, accusing it of "flaunting" its use of real eggs during the annual
Easter Egg Roll. In a statement, Democrats claimed that while Trump
hosted an extravagant event with 30,000 real eggs, many working families
were left dyeing potatoes due to rising costs. They blamed Trump’s
economic policies for driving up egg prices and increasing financial
strain on everyday Americans.
 While working families dyed potatoes instead of eggs for Easter, Trump’s
White House is flaunting a 30,000-egg event worth over $15,500 in eggs
alone. As Trump’s reckless economic agenda continues to skyrocket egg
prices, even his own Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins is bracing for
uncertainty. The contrast couldn’t be clearer: Trump and his billionaire
backers only care about their own bottom lines while working families
struggle to get by.
 Here’s a look at the White House using over $15,500 worth of eggs for
its Easter Egg Roll while working families can barely afford eggs. NBC
News: “White House plans to use real eggs for the Easter Egg Roll,
despite a strain on supply and concern over prices” Associated Press:
“U.S. egg prices increased again last month to reach a new record-high
of $6.23 per dozen despite President Donald Trump’s prediction …
 However, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins pushed back, sharing a
video of the White House Easter Bunny holding a chart with the caption,
“Nothing says @WhiteHouse Easter Egg Roll quite like a bunny rocking a
handy dandy egg chart!” The chart highlighted that wholesale egg prices
have dropped 56 percent. Even Axios acknowledged in a recent report that
egg prices have declined since Trump took office.
 “The average wholesale price of a dozen eggs was $3 Friday, down eight
percent from $3.27 on March 21, according to U.S. Department of
Agriculture data released Friday,” the report read.
 Over the weekend, I reported that Trump celebrated the drop in egg
prices, joking, “If anything, they’re getting too low.” The president
highlighted that wholesale egg prices have decreased by a stunning 47
percent since January 24, now averaging $3.10 per dozen.

It is faith in Christ and His righteousness which makes a nation great. To agree with conservative principles and hold to a form of godliness, without trusting in Christ for salvation, will result in the same loss and destruction as the liberals experience. It is only through faith in Christ that we may experience true deliverance, righteousness, and long-term stability as a nation.

Have you heard the good news Christ died for our sins (†), and God raised Him from the dead?
That Christ died for our sins shows we're sinners who deserve the death penalty. That God raised Him from the dead shows Christ's death satisfied God's righteous demands against our sin (Romans 3:25; 1 John 2:1-2). This means God can now remain just, while forgiving you of your sins, and saving you from eternal damnation.
On the basis of Christ's death and resurrection for our sins, call on the name of the Lord to save you: "For 'everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved'" (Romans 10:13, ESV).
