The Congress and US government are not very slick when it comes to this. They should pass a tax on luxury autos, most of which are made in Europe.
That would help the US auto industry and steel industry, boost the dollar, and raise taxes all at the same time, and at the expense of the EU and the "wealthy."

How does this help the consumer from a cost standpoint? How does it also promote innovation if competitive forces are manipulated or muted? I can see where the U.S. auto workers get a free ride and not have to improve their processes and value-added quality, service, and pricing of their total product's marketing mix.

Like Cadillacs and Lincolns? BMWs built in Alabama? Mercedes built in SC?
