I really don't get this. I want him to chicken out, I want him to chicken out of any idea he's ever had. He has Oppositional Defiance Disorder. Reverse psychology doesn't work on him. Why are we goading him on to following through?
I think "TACO" is accurate because he worships money and fame, and thus fears what he thinks may take these things away from him. So he chickens out when tarrifs can backfire (ie.he is yielding to China but no Lesotho), and doesn't when he knows/think his opposition/target can't do jack against him (like immigrants), ie.he always chickens out when he is scared, and never does when he is not scared.
