Trump blasts ‘nasty’ chicken gibe about his tariff reversals

US President Donald Trump has pushed back on his tariffs reversals after a reporter asked about “Taco,” an acronym which stands for “Trump Always Chickens Out,” that’s reportedly being used by Wall Street traders.

The term is meant to describe the president’s habit of threatening to impose tariffs on countries and then backing out at the last moment, or reducing the tariffs rates.

Trump responded by criticising the reporter’s “nasty” question and saying that his actions are “negotiations”.

Don’t you ever say TACO!

President Donald Trump’s meltdown over a new term prompted a wave of taco-themed memes.

Someone wrote TACO outside the Trump International Hotel in Manhattan, New York City.

Trump’s Meltdown Over ‘TACO’ Trade Spurs Wave of Chicken Memes

The president called a reporter’s question “nasty.”

President Donald Trump seemingly had a meltdown during a press briefing at the White House on Wednesday after a “nasty” reporter asked whether he was familiar with Wall Street analysts’ new term, “TACO trade,” an acronym suggesting “Trump always chickens out” under tariff threats.

“Oh, isn’t that nice,” Trump stated in a clip circulating on X. “I chicken out. I’ve never heard that.”

“You mean because I reduced China from 145% that I said down to 100, and then down to another number. I said you have to open up your whole country,” Trump continued. “And because I gave the European Union a 50% tax tariff, and they called up and they said ‘please, let’s meet right now. Please let’s meet right now,'” Trump continued.

He added that EU leaders were initially unwilling to meet until he enacted his 50% tariff, which he delayed until July 9.

“You call that chickening out?” Trump sarcastically prompted. “Because we have $14 trillion now invested, committed to investing, when Biden didn’t have practically anything,” the president continued, claiming the U.S. was dying and is now “the hottest country” in the world.

“Six months ago, this country was stone cold dead. We had a dead country. We had a country—people didn’t think it was going to survive, and you ask a nasty question like that,” Trump continued. “It’s called negotiation,” he added, before claiming he intentionally set China’s initial tariff at 145% to “go down a little bit.”

“[China was] doing no business whatsoever, and they were having a lot of problems,” Trump declared. He added that U.S. officials were “very nice to China,” claiming his tariffs tremendously helped the nation “because we were basically going cold turkey with China.”

“We were doing no business because of the tariff, because it was so high,” Trump continued. “But I knew that. But don’t ever say what you said. That’s a nasty question. To me, that’s the nastiest question,” he added before calling on another reporter.

Trump’s viral meltdown quickly spurred a wave of chicken memes on social media.

“Don’t ever say what?” an X user joked with an AI-generated photo of a chicken’s head on Trump’s body.

“Was this foreshadowing from @nbcsnl years ago? #TACO,” a third X user joked in a post accompanied by a screenshot from Trump’s 2004 appearance on the late-night sketch comedy show.

Court of International Trade blocks Trump’s tariffs in sweeping ruling

A federal court ruled Wednesday that an emergency law does not provide President Trump with unilateral authority to impose tariffs on nearly every country, blocking a series of tariff announcements dating back to February that have rattled financial markets.

The three-judge panel on the U.S. Court of International Trade unanimously ruled Congress did not delegate “unbounded” tariff authority to the president in the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977 (IEEPA), the linchpin of Trump’s legal defense.

“An unlimited delegation of tariff authority would constitute an improper abdication of legislative power to another branch of government,” the court wrote in its unsigned opinion.

“Regardless of whether the court views the President’s actions through the nondelegation doctrine, through the major questions doctrine, or simply with separation of powers in mind, any interpretation of IEEPA that delegates unlimited tariff authority is unconstitutional,” the opinion continued.

Trump tariffs reinstated by appeals court for now

A federal appeals court granted the Trump administration’s request to temporarily pause a lower-court ruling that struck down most of President Donald Trump’s tariffs.
The administration had told the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit that it might seek “emergency relief” from the Supreme Court.
Trump officials including Peter Navarro and Stephen Miller heaped criticism on the trade court judges following their ruling.
