The president's apparent retreat is the latest example of what his critics refer to as TACO Trump. The unflattering acronym is short for Trump Always ...

(AP) But has he? "The short answer is no. And in fact, the short answer is not even close," Monash University senior lecturer in international relations Ben Zala told nine.com.au.
