Hey, I'm all for a trade war.
The U.S. imports more goods from Europe than it exports back to them, so a trade war hurts them more than us.
In short, bring it on!

Unfortunately, the treaty provisions in the Constitution is big enough to drive a Mack truck through, and somebody did.
The dollar devaluing going on right now is cracking Germany's acorns. Of course, they get to crow about how the Euro is so strong but their workers are having a little trouble exporting.

Hey, I'm all for a trade war. If we were at war, our enemies would send boats to blockade our ports.
Today, we send our own boats to blockade our ports from evil products such as sugar which we prefer to make at 3X the cost from beets or to idiotically grow in the Everglades.
Your celebrated trade war means doing to ourselves what our enemies would do to us in a time of war.
