Or maybe because they have standards and we don't

Beef is a lot more expensive in Europe in my experience, but is also of a much higher quality. You can get an equivalent quality in the US but you’ll have to go to a specialty butcher or a farmers market and it will be more expensive than an equivalent cut in Europe.

And frankly the cheap stuff in the US is still too expensive for me to make it a regular part of my diet. So, if I’m going to have it, it’ll be a treat, and I may as well buy the better stuff in that case.

Word for word, the same thing the president said.

this guy is an utter dipshit, he should be impeached, if that's even possible lmao.

He was, twice, wore it like a badge of honour, and all the MAGAts voted for him again.

There was a time when presidents had decency and would quit rather than be impeached. Normal rules don't apply to the orange twat.
