(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) The Democratic National Committee has unveiled its latest anti-Trump stunt, baffingly branded “TACO,” an acronym for “Trump Always Chickens Out.”
The campaign, first reported by Axios on Tuesday, comes in response to Trump lecturing a reporter who mentioned the Wall Street phrase allegedly used to predict his reaction to tariff-triggered market drops.
“Don’t ever say what you said. That’s a nasty question,” Trump fired back.
🚨 LMFAO! The Democrats’ attempt to mock Trump outside the Republican HQ with a taco truck was such a FAILURE that the taco truck man packed up and left early 😂
These people are BEYOND pathetic 🤣 https://t.co/tRRKNLMS2b pic.twitter.com/pXQRQZ89Yr

In response, the DNC hired a taco truck near the Republican National Committee’s headquarters on Tuesday.
The truck handed out free tacos and featured an image of Trump in a chicken suit, alongside the “Trump Always Chickens Out” slogan.
“With his idiotic trade policy, he talks a big game, caves, and then leaves working families and small businesses to deal with the fallout,” DNC chair Ken Martin said in a statement.
The campaign was short-lived, as the truck quickly ran out of tacos and drove off early. Republicans wasted no time mocking the “TACO” effort on X.
Democrats have a MAN problem.
And they think the solution is tacos and handing out flyers outside the gym 🤣
Here’s an idea:
Go inside and lift.
Ditch the taco.
And while you’re at it — get Joe Biden out of the closet 🚪 (he’s still stuck in there). pic.twitter.com/wNGQv2q0vw

“We have the lamest opposition in American history,” wrote Vice President JD Vance on X.
RNC communications official Zach Parkinson laughed off the gimmick in remarks to Axios: “LMFAO. A taco truck? Are they going to be giving out free vasectomies again too?”
Journalist Nick Sortor added, “These people are BEYOND pathetic.”
Fox News anchor Jesse Watters also chimed in: “Democrats have a MAN problem. And they think the solution is tacos and handing out flyers outside the gym.”
Still, embattled Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., tried to lean into the failed campaign, posting a video of himself eating a taco in what he framed as a jab at Trump.
MEN? Eric Swalwell is kicking off the Democrat's $20 million effort to attract young men to the party. What do you say guys? Want to share a taco with Eric? pic.twitter.com/F7W1Uhj9Qq
