Draya Michele, the 40-year-old girlfriend of NBA player Jalen Green, urges her infant to eat scrambled eggs citing their high cost. Michele references the 39% price increase of eggs since President Trump's tenure. Despite this, she later posts about eating a pricey dish herself, highlighting a contradiction.

“Girl, no. Um, no. Put it back because those are expensive and you need to eat them. Yeah. You need to eat them. Right right here, these. Eat them up.�?Draya Michele force-feeds her 9-month-old baby, pointing at scrambled eggs!
The 40-year-old girlfriend of Jalen Green, a shooting guard for NBA’s Houston Rockets, recently took to her Instagram to share a few snaps. One of them was Green's infant trying to throw away scrambled eggs. And, we could hear Michele disciplining her baby - not to throw, eat them, and more.

“We also want to make it easier for families to raise backyard chickens,�?said Agricultural Secretary Brooke Rollins

What stood apart was, that Michele said, those are expensive! Sending out signals for the 39% raised prices of eggs ever since President Donald Trump took over the reins. Agricultural Secretary Brooke Rollins said, "People are sort of looking around thinking, 'Wow, well maybe I can get a chicken in my backyard,' and it's awesome. We also want to make it easier for families to raise backyard chickens." Trump’s administration is trying to combat Bird Flu outbreaks. A report by Food & Water Watch said, “Bird flu has slightly reduced egg production but corporate greed has also played a major role.�?br/>

Anyway, how is an infant going to understand that surge in prices? We have grown up hearing from our parents, save money, don’t spend too much. But here the picture is a little odd. 23-year-old Jalen Green’s GF is teaching his daughter, eat up because eggs are costly! Michele is speaking for everyone. But what surprised us was she contradicted herself in the very next IG post! Read on to know how.

US President Trump urged to bring down soaring egg prices

“Are we flexing??�?asked Jalen Green’s 40 YO GF Draya Michele on her IG post

Draya Michele shared on her IG story,
“But for real. I see yall. Yall eating the shit outta them expensive eggs. I’ve never seen so many people eat breakfast and show their plates in my life on here. Are we flexing??�?br/>

And, Michele’s next IG story portrayed a picture of spicy Edamame! We mean, first, you say eggs are costly and you say you have never seen so many people show what they’re eating, and the next moment? You show the world what you’re eating! You’re eating a glass bowl full of spicy Edamame for breakfast! Talk about double standards. How is that flexing?
