axing ONE sector to protect it is not a trade war and will only have a minor effect on consumers for a short time.

Trump announces a tariff on steel and aluminum. The EU says they will respond with tariffs on motorcycles, bourbon, and orange juice. Trump then says he will put a tariff on automobiles, which means that the EU will then put tariffs on other things. THAT is a trade war, and that's what we're headed towards.

None of which has happened, nor will happen. Ever negotiate?

It takes the most treasonous form of idiocy to assert that the amount of protectionism required to maintain military preparedness is somehow wrong, damaging, or optional.

Hey Dawg they(EU) already tariff our imports at a much higher rate than the duty we charge imports. We win, they lose.

Since the EU butt wipes are s quick on the draw it seems they are protectionist too.

We are all protectionists now.
