TACO Trade Attack: Trump LOSES Cool During Presser; Internet Erupts In Memefest | Details

Donald Trump was visibly irritated when asked about the viral financial term “TACO trade”—an acronym for “Trump Always Chickens Out”—referring to a market pattern where Trump’s tariff threats cause stock dips, followed by rebounds when he retreats. The term, coined by Financial Times columnist Robert Armstrong, surged online after Trump dismissed the question as “nasty.” Despite Trump’s denial, social media exploded with memes and AI-generated images showing him as a chicken, making #TacoTrade a trending topic. Analysts say Trump’s tariff zigzags are being used by investors for profit cycles.
