    Taco is the dumbest shit I think I’ve seen being pushed as a nick name for him. It’s the cringest most forced bot phrase, of the last decade. I don’t think I can handle being on the planet and reading this garbage anymore.

    Like do people think it’s clever, saying the same thing over and over and over and seeing it over and over and over. Is it supposed to be funny?

      Pointing out that Trump has no conviction to follow through on anything (Trump Always Chickens Out: TACO) and the irony that’s it’s a taco, from the cuisine of his favorite hated minority, makes it a perfect nickname.

      It’s a great indicator that someone is serially online and rarely talks to others. At one of the protests I went to I brought a TACO themed sign and nobody got it. I had to answer “what does that mean?” sooo many times.

        Well, why did you do it?

        What are you saying he’s backing out of? do you want him to follow through on all the weird shit he says? Would that be better to you?

        It sounds like it’s a far right psyop- “the libs are calling you a weak scared chicken wimp, show them you’re not.” Is the point to antagonize the old demented man?

          It is a fact. He never follows through. It’s not a message for him, he literally doesn’t think about what other people say because he’s a narcissist. It’s a message for all the MAGA dorks who think they are so tough with a tough guy leader. It’s pointing out just how weak and pathetic they truly are when challenged in any way.

          As for why I made the sign, I’ve made a lot of signs and I only have so many ideas lol.

          Edit: also I left out a part of the story because I forgot. There was one person who clearly did get the message, and it was a scared little snowflake who rolled up all his windows in his emotional support truck even though he was smoking because he was scared while stopped at a red light next to some people with signs. He stared angrily at me specifically thinking he was being intimidating. I laughed at him and it made him big mad. So I guess in a way the sign worked.

          I think it’s more a finance bro psyop… “Don’t worry about the shit he’s doing, just keep investing, he’ll give up anyway”
