Anybody see the acronyms for economic policies? I saw them during Deadline on Friday, but I haven't seen the full list.

We've seen TACO (Trump Always Chickens Out). Now there's more on the menu, but I can't find them. Help would be greatly appreciated.

BURRITO (Blatantly Unconstitutional Rewriting of the Rules of International Trade, Obviously)

ENCHILADA (Economic Nationalism, Chaotic Handling, Illogical Levies and Disrupted Alliances)

CHURRO (Courts Have Ultimate Responsibility to Restore Order)

SALSA (Shaky Alliances Lopsided Strategies and trade Antagonism)

Economist and professor Justin Wolfers was the one with all the new names. He said that he was hungry when he came up with them. Looks like he's Australian and likes Mexican food.
