    The price is going to exponentially increase over time regardless of what Trump’s little circus today does because factory farming is unsustainable. I wish people would stop supporting wide scale animal abuse along with the rampant ecological disasters, pollution and climate change that come from this.

        Less demand though.

        Especially once a few cases of mad cow disease start popping up in people who’ve eaten beef recently.

        Then the plummeting demand will lead to a glut of supply, and prices will actually go down! Brilliant 23-D chess move!

    Sounds like donnie the dotard is trying to do some short-term “fix” for a problem of his own creation, shortly before the election.

    Wonder what happens after Nov 3?

        While US beef production is geared towards steaks and ground chuck, most other countries focus on growing lean beef.

        The almost certainly low quality meat being imported (countries aren’t going to export their good stuff to Donnie), likely isn’t even going to end up in your local grocery stores as steaks or ground beef. It will be used in other areas of industry with massive orders. Think filler for frozen dinner meatballs, etc. where the raw quality isn’t a priority. Where the lower quality stuff already goes.
