So, they've slapped this nickname on Donald Trump: "Taco." Yep, Taco, like the snack we all love but in this case, it stands for "Trump Always Chickens Out." Pretty catchy, right? It totally seems like something right out of a schoolyard taunt, which is exactly how Trump felt when a reporter tossed the tag his way during a press conference. Trust me, it wasn’t a highlight for a guy with an ego as huge as his. Why "Taco"? Well, it all started with Trump’s flip-flopping on tariffs. One minute, he's all gung-ho, set to slap hefty taxes on imports from various countries, and the next, he's backtracking like there's no tomorrow. His defense? He calls it negotiating. A bit of a stretch, maybe, but that’s his story. As we speak, Trump's got a shot at ditching the Taco moniker by making a bold move or two. It could totally redefine his stint at the White House for a second term. But hey, it’s not just about the tariffs anymore. His stance on Russia, and how he handles the Big Bear itself—Vladimir Putin—is going to determine whether he shakes off 'Taco' or if it sticks to him like glue. Things got real interesting when Russia cranked up its attacks in Ukraine. Amidst this chaos, Trump was quizzed by the press right in the Oval Office. They wanted to know if he thought Putin was keen on pulling the plug on the conflict. His reply? "Can’t tell you now, but give me two weeks." That short window he mentioned? He meant it. No extensions. And he threw in a vague hint—should Putin keep messing around, the U.S. might just spice up their response. Before putting Putin on this two-week clock, Trump didn’t mince words on social media. He blasted Putin for going off the rails, accusing him of playing dangerous games. Now that the deadline has passed, Trump is under the spotlight, needing to make a decisive move against Russia. If he stalls, it’s going to be a massive boost for Putin, and 'Taco' could become an indelible part of Trump's legacy. Remember when Trump claimed he could stop the war in no time during his campaign days? Well, now’s his moment to show some muscle, maybe even slap those massive tariffs on countries dealing with Russian exports, especially oil. And if you think everyone’s sitting back, guess again. Senator Lindsey Graham has his eyes peeled on Putin's games, ready for the U.S. Senate to jump in if things get too dicey. Even though most of the world sees Trump being played by Putin—the calls, the promises of peace, none of it seems to stick. And yet, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, despite being no buddy of Trump, keeps pushing for peace while Russia just drags its feet. Now let’s talk about some comments that are way off base. Trump compared Putin and Zelensky to kids brawling in a park—an analogy that’s so out of touch it’s laughable. Ukraine was minding its own business before Russia barged in. Zelensky's take? Putin’s no playground bully—he’s out for blood. On the ground, in Ukraine, where I’ve been a dozen times since the war flared up, the devastation and sorrow are unmistakable. It’s urgent—it’s time for this war to stop. And maybe, just maybe, Trump can be the guy to get Putin to back down. Like Hungary’s PM, Viktor Orbán, put it, Trump’s the one Western leader who could really press both sides enough to halt the fight. And Orbán, typically supportive of Putin, admits the Russian leaders mainly respond to strength. Look, Trump might need to pick up that phone again, dial Putin, and lay it all out. He’s been playing nice, underlining his respect for Putin’s strongman antics, but there's a limit. The world’s got the memo—Russia’s overstepped big time since snatching a whopping chunk of Ukraine. Enough’s enough, right? If Trump steps up, really steps up, he could flip the whole scene. He might even spice up his trophy shelf with something shiny like a Nobel Peace Prize. And who knows? His supporters might just start calling him ‘Taka’—as in 'Trump Always Kicks Ass' instead of shrinking back with 'Taco.' Because if there’s anything a guy like Trump wants, it’s a win, a heroic tag to finish off his presidential legacy on a high note.
