Trump responded angrily toward a reporter in the White House after she told him that Wall Street investors are using a new acronym, TACO, to describe the ongoing tariff turmoil caused by Trump. The acronym stands for “Trump Always Chickens Out” and was reportedly coined by a Financial Times columnist.

Congratulations Donald, you just 'Streisand Effect'ed yourself.

If you'd have just rolled your eyes and said something like "yeah, they're a bunch of jokers, eh?" everyone would have forgotten about that term within a few days.

But now the world knows that nickname gets deep under your skin. It's going to haunt you like bad gas after a large McDonald's meal.

Or maybe a crunchwrap supreme from TACO Bell?

It's a distraction. When are people going to stop falling for this shit?

Everything he does has always been claimed to be a distraction. The people that hate him know full well he's destroying the country, and the people that love him don't care.

No it isn’t. This ‘distraction’ shit gives him too much credit, like he’s thinking a step ahead or strategising somehow.

He’s not. He’s just an idiot who can’t keep his mouth shut even when it hurts him.
