So, What Kind of Taco Would Trump Be?

We're pretty sure a Doritos Loco tortilla and gold-plated, mayonnaise-dispensing spackle gun would somehow be involved.

Trump-haters may suddenly have their own version of Let's Go Brandon, coincidentally in the form of a taco. And naturally, it's funnier, since A) we all know conservatives have no sense of humor and B) it's making the authoritarian ass-head super testy. Cuz we all know conservatives are the true snowflakes.

The term TACO was coined by Robert Armstrong, a columnist for Financial Times, who used it as a tasty acronym for Trump Always Chickens Out, in reference to investors and global leaders' gradual awakening to Trump's strategy of always threatening big tariffs before inevitably backing down.

Cue the memes and the yard signs and the soon-to-be-ubiquitous usage of this taunt that so gets under the orange skin. And soon, the ensuing calamitous backlash by Trump that leaves us all dead or broker, as he yearns to prove he's no shrinking violet and worth a dictator's tunic of his very own.
