The Democratic Party, after years of trying to brand itself as the rebellious voice of modern politics, has once again stumbled into a painfully tone-deaf spectacle. Their latest attempt to land a punch on Donald Trump’s tariff stance—TACO, or “Trump Always Chickens Out”—has landed not with a bang, but with a clumsy splat, like a soggy tortilla dropped in a D.C. crosswalk.
The highlight of this strategy? A taco truck parked near the RNC headquarters, wrapped in an image of the former president wearing a chicken costume. Yes, this is real. This, according to the DNC’s brightest minds, is how they plan to reclaim the voters they lost in 2024: with poultry-based puns and free food.

To call this stunt “cringeworthy” is generous. It’s not edgy. It’s not clever. It’s an unintentional admission of how far the party has strayed from coherent messaging. Vice President JD Vance put it bluntly: “We have the lamest opposition in American history.” And it’s hard to argue with him when the opposition’s campaign vehicle is a taco truck and their battle cry is essentially a playground insult.
Even more embarrassing is the logistics failure. According to reports, the DNC didn’t even manage to park the truck at the correct location, initially setting up at a church down the street. NRCC spokesman Mike Marinella didn’t miss the opportunity to highlight that slip, mocking, “You can’t fix stupid.”
And then there’s Rep. Eric Swalwell’s viral video, where he mumbles through a taco while his aide drops an f-bomb about Trump. It’s the kind of content that might earn a few pity laughs on TikTok, but as political messaging? It lands with all the impact of a high school skit written during detention. Critics online weren’t just unimpressed—they were stunned at the level of self-parody the Democrats seem determined to reach.

There was a time not long ago when Democrats tried to launch the “Dark Woke” brand—an edgier, almost confrontational posture meant to match Trump’s no-holds-barred persona. But Dark Woke has given way to Mildly Annoyed Lunch Truck, and the contrast could not be starker.
Let’s be honest: Donald Trump handing out McDonald’s during the Clemson White House visit worked because it was unexpected, lighthearted, and aligned with his brash everyman persona. This, by comparison, feels like what happens when a committee of political consultants tries to write a punchline and ends up ordering catering instead.
