President Donald Trump still seems to think that “groceries” is something of an uncommon word.
“It’s such an old-fashioned term, but a beautiful term: groceries. It sort of says a bag with different things in it,” Trump said at a White House event on Wednesday, where he discussed his massive new tariffs. “Groceries went through the roof and I campaigned on that. I talked about the word ‘groceries’ for a lot.”
Trump has had an odd fixation with the word ― and an even odder fixation with the notion that it’s somehow an uncommon or “old-fashioned” word.
He mentioned it last week as “like an old-fashioned word, but it’s a beautiful word, a very descriptive word.” At a different event last week, he called it “like an old-fashioned word, but really it’s not, and people understand it.”
He also brought it up on the campaign trail, where at one point he tried to define it.
“The word ‘grocery,’ it’s a sort of simple word,” he said in October. “But it sort of means, like, everything you eat. The stomach is speaking, it always does.”
