I was hanging out in #mediachat last night, and #TacoTrucksOnEveryCorner started trending.
It all started with one of Trump's many surrogaffes:
Dude, so how is this a bad thing? Tacos are life. #TacoTrucksOnEveryCorner pic.twitter.com/QCthBHRiDn

#TacoTrucksOnEveryCorner - Come on, even Alt.Rights love tacos (they just call them Folded Freedom Flag American Corn Sandwiches).

I say let's go with #TacoTrucksOnEveryCorner. It'd sure beat our current "Starbucks on Every Corner" policy.

First Ben Carson taking about war against Hummus, and now this? Seems to me that the GOP has an issue with food. #TacoTrucksOnEveryCorner

Nacho everyday request.
In case you're wondering, Phillip Bump analyzed the impact for the Washington Post: The national economic implications of a taco truck on every corner.
The Clinton campaign should probably send Trump a thank you card. She may just win on this issue. Not even kidding.
