Trump lashes out over viral 'TACO trade' meme. What does it stand for?
"TACO trade," which stands for "Trump always chickens out," was coined by Financial Times columnist Robert Armstrong but has since spread across Wall Street and the internet, mocking the president's back-and-forth on tariff policies.
While fielding questions from reporters in the Oval Office on Wednesday, a reporter asked for Trump's reaction to the now-viral Wall Street jab.
"Oh, I chicken out? Isn't that nice? I've never heard that," Trump said.
The president went on to defend his decision to slash the tariffs on China for 90 days and push back the deadline for 50% tariffs on European Union countries until July 9.
"You call that chickening out?" Trump asked, appearing visibly agitated by the question, which he called "nasty."
I did not get in the loop the other day BV.. The sublime juice didn't seep in until I heard the Acronym Fuxsplained on the Conservative talk radio..
Sorry to stomp on your thread with mine.
This when you want AI to generate a meme of RFK protesting in a proletariat grey jumpsuit in front of the Taco Rico Emporium with a sign that reads "I would rather be vaccinated for some random disease then eat a TACO"
