Tacos and nachos, for a man who hates Hispanic people, unless they are illegally working in one of his properties, he sure seems to favor south of the border food.

I saw an article about "NACHO" this morning, but didn't bother with it, until now.
Seems it is from traders on the Street, channeling the same frustration with the swaggering, roaring, buffoon, as "TACO"
Move Over, TACO: NACHO Is the New Word to Mock Trump on Wall Street — Here’s What It Means
The label has reportedly emerged in trading circles where skepticism of the president’s ability to reopen the strait, a key global energy trade route, is now such a trend that it merits its own code name.
Bloomberg columnist Javier Blas revealed “NACHO” on Wednesday, citing a trader who told him the acronym stands for: “Not A Chance Hormuz Opens.”
Trump’s oscillation between bluster and brinkmanship has only deepened the uncertainty, but for traders, it leaves one growing certainty: “NACHO.”https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/move-over-taco-n...I was reviewing Exxon's annual report last night. Half of Exxon's oil production is in the US, but the ROI on USian production was only 4.3% vs 17.7% outside the US. In 2024, when big oil handed Trump the God that 10 figure check, margins were 7.5 and 20.3. Crude prices had been steadily declining for several years. Big oil was looking at their investment in USian production going to money heaven. The obvious solution to the poor margins on USian production, is to take other people's production offline.
It isn't that Trump the Conqueror *can't" open the Strait. He doesn't want to open the Strait.

I had actually heard NACHO first on C-SPAN's Washington Journal a few weeks back, when it was used by a MAGA caller to praise Trump as a leader who is Not Afraid to Confront Hard Obstacles!

Trump appears to settle in for lengthy Strait of Hormuz standoff as Iran war hits 60-day mark
The war in Iran has reached the 60-day mark, with President Trump apparently willing to live with an extended Strait of Hormuz blockade and little sense that Congress will meaningfully push back.
It all points to a conflict with no clear end in sight.https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/article/trump-ap...Meanwhile, the lumbering, roaring, buffoon, aggrandizes himself some more.
Donald Trump Shares New Map Showing The 'Strait Of Trump' And It Doesn’t Chart Well
Donald Trump faced fresh mockery after doubling down on the idea of renaming the Strait of Hormuz after himself.
Trump, who has a penchant for putting his name on buildings and more, reshared what appeared to be an AI-generated map on his Truth Social platform that labeled the narrow channel off Iran’s coast as the “Strait of Trump.”https://currently.att.yahoo.com/news/articles/dona...Of course, name it after himself, because he is the one that caused the closure, because big oil paid him to bail them out of a poor return on their USian oil production investments.

Burning brightly.
I’ll even put up with the smell- the same smell that hung over American bases when grunts splashed diesel over the 55 gallon drums and lit them off.

I was never in the army, but the descriptions of that exercise are so vivid that I swear I can still smell it.
