    But that’s your store. Vance was saying Eggs were $4 while standing in front of a sign saying “Eggs $2.99” and complaining about egg prices in the area, while blaming Harris for making eggs $4.

    He could’ve stood in front of the $2.99 sign to only show the more expensive eggs. He could’ve gone to a “higher end” store to find those $7 eggs. He could’ve just stood in a different part of the store. But his crew looked at the backdrop and said “eh, go for it.” and did.

    Harris isn’t responsible for the price of eggs anyway. There’s no “Vice Presidential Office of Egg Prices” she presides over.

      He said eggs are $4. Eggs are $4.

      Like I said, reaching.

      It sucks (in your eyes; I don’t care) that he didn’t have the PR smarts to ensure he wasn’t in front of a $3 price tag, but that’s only a reflection of how carefully he manages his image. Careful management of image is not really something I care about.
