TACO!

[Delldude]

No worries. He will chicken out. He always does.

You talking about Schumer?

 

[Couchpotato]

I'm not talking about food either. I'm talking about the new Wall Street phrase. TACO = Trump Always Chickens Out. Thisis what Wall Street now uses to define Trump's threats of tariffs because he always backs off, just like he did this week with the EU.

What is the ‘TACO trade’ on Wall Street?​

There’s a new trade on Wall Street: the TACO trade, standing for “Trump Always Chickens Out.”

The term was coined by Robert Armstrong, a writer for the Financial Times, and is intended to capture how markets have fallen on Trump’s vow to impose steep tariffs on imports to the United States and then jump back up when Trump announces pauses on those tariffs.

Isnt your position that the tariffs are bad? (I would agree with that position). So you're mad that the tariffs are threatened but then also mad when they aren't actually enacted?

 

[Delldude]

The gist of the issue was big old rich fat cat USA was getting hosed in many cases globally with tariffs with little or no reciprocating here.

Trump has a good point.

You talking about Schumer?

He’s talking about Trump.

Your thread has aged very well:

Trump issues order rolling back some of his food tariffs

The directive comes as the president has come under criticism for high grocery prices.

I thought they were used because they bring big revenue. You guys are all over the place on this one, changing the motive on the fly according to the circumstances.

We are not getting shit from Argentina for lowering beef tariffs. Beef prices are soaring in the United States and now Trump is panicking. Stop pretending it’s a deal thing.

And Trump did it as soon as Democrats did well in the elections the other day

Well yeah, better trade deals brings better revenue

You lack critical thinking skills

Yet all that revenue brought by the tariffs was revenue without deals. The Trump administration has not even tried to say that deals are what brought big revenue. Face it. You don’t know what you’re talking about.

Your point?

/——/ In addition to a negotiation tool, Tariffs can protect domestic industries by making imported goods more expensive, encouraging consumers to buy locally produced alternatives, which can help retain or create jobs. They also generate revenue for the government, which can be used for public services and infrastructure.

No. I oppose the tariff, and I oppose the game Trump plays using the threat of tariffs to bully people. He just needs to drop tariffs altogether.

You really are cheering hard for us to take a mass casualty event here in this country.

He is just manipulating them as needed for any reason. I expect them to reduce at some point. And I expect prices for living to reduce in real terms also.

It's been effective to one degree or another so Im not sure why your so butt hurt about it.
