WHO doesn't love tacos?

We had tacos for dinner last night. You?

In case you missed it, some clever folks on Wall Street came up with a term for our idiot president’s tariff batshittery. They’re calling it TACO trade. That stands for ‘Trump Always Chickens Out’.

“Trump’s style in negotiating deals is he huffs and he puffs, but he doesn’t blow the house down,” Ed Yardeni, president of Yardeni Research, told CNBC. (source)  

He’s all bluster, bullshit, and ham-handed, halfassed artifice and the whole world’s got his number now. He’s fooling no one but his cult of morons

The overemotional clown freaked out at a journalist yesterday who dared to ask for his response to financial analysts new term for his trade style. 

"Oh, I chicken out. Isn't that nice? I've never heard that," Trump said during the exchange, before defending his recent decisions to slash his tariffs on China for the next 90 days and extend his deadline for a 50% tariff on goods from the European Union until July 9. (source) 

He hasn’t heard that because he only watches “news” shows that fellate him 24/7.

He then said to the reporter "Don't ever say what you said because that's a nasty question.” Christ almighty, he sounds like a four year old and I’m being generous. A guy on Threads suggested that every time Cheato says a journalist’s question is “nasty,” the next thing that should be asked is, “President Obama took tough questions like this. Why won’t you?”

Ooooooo, that would just cause him to explode, wouldn’t it?! Man-o-man, that’s an interview with this slug from Hell (not to diss Hellion slugs mind you) that I’d actually watch. Fer fuck’s sake, I’d make popcorn and root for myocardial infarctions, cerebrovascular oopsies, and other miscellaneous excitement.

Make no mistake, it’s not just the old, incontinent, second rate, WAY-off-the-Vegas-Strip Jabba the Hutt impersonator and White House resident who’s making grand declarations and then collapsing like a deck chair under…well…the weight of president Jabba the Hutt.

Look at Senators Josh Hawley of Missouri, Susan Collins of Maine, Rick Scott of Florida, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Rand Paul of Kentucky, and Utah’s Mike Lee. They’re saying they won’t vote for Dipshit Donnie’s ‘Big, Beautiful, Bill’ (OH spare me!) Why? Because, essentially, it doesn’t rob and rape us regular, non-filthy rich citizens nearly enough. For all the wrong reasons, these trash brained weasels could save us. Will they? Fuck no. Republicans always cave to their big Daddy. They’re a bunch of spineless, bullying, perpetually on-the-take frauds. 

THEY always chicken out too. It’s the Republican way.

Backing down can become a way of life.

Courage is fire, and bullying is smoke.
~ Benjamin Disraeli

Look into the eyes of a chicken and you will see real stupidity. It is a kind of bottomless stupidity, a fiendish stupidity. They are the most horrifying, cannibalistic and nightmarish creatures in the world.
~ Werner Herzog 

I know a few people who raise chickens (the birds, not republicans). They would vociferously disagree with Herr Herzog but, well, gotta sich in die Lage des anderen versetzen.

I'm not counting any chickens.
