'How Does It Feel?': Jimmy Kimmel Gives Trump A Taste Of His Own Bitter Medicine
Jimmy Kimmel said President Donald Trump has changed his tariff policy so often that the process has been given a mocking new nickname: TACO. That's short for 'Trump Always Chickens Out.' 'You're not gonna believe this,' Kimmel said. 'He doesn't like the nickname at all.' TACO refers to how Trump frequently announces a new tariff, causing markets to crash, then backs off, causing them to rise again. Some investors have used it to make cash in a time of economic uncertainty. Kimmel said Trump flipped out at a reporter who asked him about the name, calling it 'a nasty question.' 'But it seems to be catching on,' Kimmel said, then showed off some of his favorite TACO Trump chicken memes. 'How does it feel to be on the other end of the nickname game?' Kimmel asked. 'Not great, does it?' Kimmel said there's only one way to make this even worse for Trump: 'If somebody changed the lyrics to a song by his beloved Village People to drive it home.' Kimmel played a parody of 'Macho Man' ― a song Trump has frequently used at his rallies ― called 'Taco Man,' complete with a video to match. Check it out in his Thursday night monologue:

The internet is using TACO memes to call Trump a chicken and the results are hilarious
Taco Tuesday is the best day of the week, but Wednesday may usurp it as the day President Donald Trump threw a fit after learning what TACO stands for. Amid the stock market's dramatic ups and downs as Trump institutes tariffs and then calls them off, CNBC's Megan Casella asked the president about Wall Street's new nickname for him during the May 28 event to swear in former Fox News host Jeannine Pirro as the new interim U.S. attorney in Washington, D.C. 'Wall Street analysts have coined a new term called the 'TACO Trade.' They're saying Trump always chickens out on your tariff threats, and that's why markets are higher this week,' she said. Financial Times columnist Robert Armstrong coined the term 'TACO Trade' earlier this month, and Trump predictably got angry when he head that it stand for 'Trump Always Chickens Out.' "I've never heard that,' Trump said. 'You mean because I reduced China from 145 percent that I set down to 100, and then down to another number, and I said you have to open up your whole country?" Trump said. "And because I gave the European Union a 50 percent tax—tariff—and they called up and said, 'Please let's meet right now.'" Trump has done about faces on the tariffs he's imposed on both China and the EU, and also put announced 'recirpocal' tariffs on dozens of countries in April before announcing a '90 day pause' on tariffs for all of the countries except for China, CNN reports. The president went on to brag about the U.S. being the 'hottest country anywhere in the world' under his administration before firing back at Casella by falling back on his tried and true misogynistic insult for women. "That's a nasty question. To me, that's the nastiest question,' he said. Somebody should really tell Trump about the Streisand Effect, the phenomenon where an attempt to censor information makes it go viral, because the internet immediately latched on to this new insult and within hours #TACO had gone viral and people started pumping out hilarious and insulting TACO Trump memes. There are AI-generated memes of Trump in a chicken suit, ones where his head has been turned into a taco, people joking that the Village People should now be singing 'Taco, Taco Man…I wanna be a Taco Man,' and people resurfacing old videos of Trump dancing with people in chicken suits. In short? If you need a little joy and serotonin in your life this week, Trump Taco memes are the answer. Keep scrolling to see the funniest Trump memes the internet has to offer! #TACO "Trump: I don't wanna #TACO bout it" "Trump always chickens out." "Congrats to CNBC's Megan Cassella for winning the 'Nasty' Question badge of honour. She is the only reporter with the balls to not bend a knee and ask the Toddler in Chief softball questions." "Taco, Taco Man… I wanna be a Taco Man" *laughing emojis* "Can confirm #TACO" "Did she say 'TACO' stands for Trump Always Chickens Out?" "#TACO" "Taco-Taco Man. I've got to be a Taco Man." "THERE ARE NO TRADE DEALS Because Trump Always Chickens Out" "Putin is laughing at Trump. Bibi is laughing at Trump. Iran is laughing at Trump. The world is laughing at Trump. The United States has never looked weaker. The United States have never been weaker. Good luck digging out of this hole."
