Is it true that Trump Always Chickens Out 🐔 (TACO) 🌮?

Question

Trump was just asked about the ‘TACO trade’ for the first time. He called it the ‘nastiest question’ By Elisabeth Buchwald, CNN Wall Street has been riding a historic roller coaster the past few months due to President Donald Trump’s on-again, off-again tariff threats. Now, investors are learning to take his words with a grain of salt — and a bit of salsa, too. That’s because there’s a new type of trade taking hold: TACO, short for Trump Always Chickens Out. In other words, don’t fret too much about Trump’s latest tariff threat and go on a selling spree, because eventually he’ll back down and a relief rally will ensue. Trump said he first learned of the term, coined by Financial Times commentator Robert Armstrong, on Wednesday when a reporter sought his reaction to it. “I chicken out? Oh, I’ve never heard that. You mean because I reduced China from 145% that I set down to 100 and then to another number?” Trump said Wednesday, referring to tariff rates he imposed on imported Chinese goods. (The rate is now 30%, after Trump raised it as high as 145% last month, much to investors’ dismay, only to reduce it a few weeks later.) Last week, Trump threatened to impose 50% tariffs on goods from the European Union come June 1. Stocks turned lower after his threat, which he doubled down on later in the day, claiming there was no room to negotiate. Two days later, he said he’d wait until July 9 to levy a 50% tariff on EU goods following promising talks. “You call that chickening out?” Trump responded to a reporter at an Oval Office event Wednesday, referring to his recent announcements on EU and Chinese tariff rates. “It’s called negotiation,” Trump added, saying that part of his tactic can include setting “a ridiculous high number” for tariff rates and going down if he gets other nations to give in to his demands. “Don’t ever say what you said,” Trump told the reporter, calling it “the nastiest question.”

tRump has been a coward his entire life. He dodged the draft and then insults veterans as suckers and losers to hide his own shame and crows about what a tough guy he is. He couldn't cut in school so he hired someone to take his SAT's for him. Daddy bought him his diploma. But he screamed to see Obama's college transcripts.

Yeah, the Cheeto President always chickens out, backs down, and runs away. And his MAGA-tard supporters think he's a tough guy. How stupid are they?

Trumpian talk and decisions practically never make any coherent sense. It's one step forward, two steps back, followed by two steps forward, one step back. The end result is a glaring zero, zip, nothing, garnished by aggressive babble, empty promises and general hot air.

Some part of him knows how terrible all this is. It's why he backed down against China and why he announces all this nonsense, watched everything collapse and then chickens out. He wants to make a "deal" and claim victory when whatever we end up with is worse than if he just left it alone. It's meaningless that the IRS collected 22B in tariffs this month when America just collectively spent 22B extra buying things. Trump just taxed us that amount is all.

Pretty much... and then he tells you he didn't, that it was all great, the biggest, the best... ever... in the whole world... in the entire history of mankind and even the time of the dinosaurs, even before the dinosaurs... yep, the best from before the universe existed even.

Yup he is a bully and the thing you always gotta do with bullies is to stand up to them. eventually they'll back down because they know you are not a pushover.

It's called negotiating, and making a deal. The purpose is to convince the other countries for a fair trade deal. It seems that no matter what he does, you hardcore Democrat fanatic losers always find a reason to cry and whine about everything he does. You guys hate Trump 10 times more than you love your own country. By the way, the DemocRat party is responsible for the death of Jocelyn Nungaray, Rachel Morin, Laken Riley, and many others thanks to their open border in the last 4 years.
