JD Vance was roundly mocked online over a trip to the supermarket where he bemoaned the steep price of eggs — and botched the photo opp.

The Republican vice presidential nominee stopped by a supermarket in Reading, Pennsylvania, with his sons over the weekend to illustrate how grocery prices have been impacted by “Kamala Harris’s policies” when he claimed a dozen eggs cost $4.

The problem? When footage of the visit emerged, Vance was quickly called out by viewers who spotted the price tag of a dozen eggs behind him was actually $2.99.

    So you’re supporting the fact that the price of eggs has gotten significantly better under the current administration.

      Um yes? I voted for Biden/Harris fyi and will be voting for harris/walz… eggs WERE 7$ here under Biden, Vance is claiming they were only 4 while they are 3 under his VP. If he wasn’t an idiot he would have said a higher number than 4 while standing in front of 3$ eggs. How are you guys not understanding this or you morons just assume everyone from .ml is against democracy. I swear some of you are no better than the nomies on reddit, hell sometimes some of you are worse.

      Fuckin’ idiots.
