And they're wondering if the man has ever gone grocery shopping in his life.

But the one thing people are talking about most is the coffee price.

"Im sorry but if you’re paying $10 for a coffee today you’re just getting played," this person said.

"7 bucks for coffee is still insane," another person said.

Twitter: @MRW_SSB

And this person joked, "Where them $9.99 coffees at?!?!?"

So, what does Trump plan to do about grocery prices? He told a crowd in Michigan it involves tariffs.

The Atlantic reports that Trump's tariff policy would actually raise the prices of groceries:

"With less available supply and new import taxes, prices would almost certainly rise. In fact, the U.S. already imposes tariffs and other barriers on a wide range of imported foods, including beef, seafood, sugar, and tomatoes. Studies consistently show that these trade restrictions inflate consumer prices. (Sugar, for example, costs twice as much in the United States as it does globally."

Either way, I'm still stuck on that $10 cup of coffee. Not to sound like a boomer, but what the hell are you putting in there?!
