"Trump has a new nickname," laughed Karoli during this week's podcast. "And it’s disgraceful to tacos, but it’s TACO, which is “Trump Always Chickens Out.” So it’s TACO - all caps - do not do lower case. Because that’s good stuff. Good tacos."

The ruling from the U.S. Court of International Trade on the illegality of the tariffs came down while the MOMocrats were recording this episode, so Karoli, Aliza Worthington, and Donna Schwartz Mills did NOT address Trump's latest very "yuge" legal defeat.

They still had much to talk about, simply focusing on the way this president in his second term is brazenly enriching himself while supposedly serving the American people. ("It's the corruption, stupid.")

As Aliza points out, "We just skipped right over the fact that he’s president and still operating a business. We skipped right over that! Like, is that a norm now? Like, we just accept that - with Trump - the thing that no other president has ever done, and the thing that we’ve demanded of every single other president, which is to divest yourself of your personal business holdings - we just skipped right over that, and we don’t make Trump do that."
