Latinos for Trump founder Marco Gutierrez wanted Americans to be afraid, very afraid, of the "dominant" and "imposing" culture threatening the United States from its southern border, so on MSNBC Thursday night, he offered a vision of a dystopian future.

Imagine, he said, an America beset by "taco trucks on every corner."

Steak. Chicken. Tortillas. All steaming and sizzling in front of your eyes. Everywhere you look. Imagine this imposition.

You don't have to, because it's already begun. Korean BB tacos. They exist. And if the "dominant" culture Gutierrez has warned us about can take over Korean food, then why not American? Are hot dogs really just tacos? Have we been subject to a stealth culinary takeover all along? And wait -- if hot dogs are tacos, are there already taco vendors on every corner?

Oh no.

This battle is already lost. Just look at Twitter. Look at #TacoTrucksOnEveryCorner. It's almost as if these brainwashed people like tacos.

Run.
