EPISODE 4: THE AЯT OF EATING “TACO”

model: chatgpt 4o the american history mmvvx series may 28, 2025: the nickname “taco” (“trump always chickens out”) has become a widely used shorthand for trump’s erratic and frequently reversed trade strategies—especially after he angrily dismissed it as a “nasty question” during a may 28 press briefing. originally coined by financial times columnist robert armstrong on may 2, 2025, the term was meant to mock trump’s pattern of announcing aggressive tariffs that rattle markets, only to later retreat. it quickly gained traction among wall street traders and political critics alike.

 in this satirical scene, trump sits in the oval office proudly promoting his latest book, 'art of eating taco'—a parody of his infamous book, 'the art of the deal'. the imagery mocks his self-proclaimed business genius, underscoring his most recent failed tariff negotiation, where tough talk once again gave way to a hasty retreat. collector's caution: depending on your location, experiences may vary. for americans, you are living in an unprecedented time where holding a progressive viewpoint—and exercising the freedom of creativity and speech—can lead to silencing, harassment, or even violations of civil rights. by owning this piece of artwork, you acknowledge and accept these risks. may your bravery, courage, and patriotism serve as your strength—and as a beacon of hope to others. only time will tell.
