It's not as if Europe wants US chlorine washed chicken or additive laced foods and drinks, many of which are banned because of their content.

 

 

Trade wars happen.

Like any wars, much easier to start than to end.

How many of those countries have a trade deficit with the USA?

 

Edit:  Or a trade surplus depending on which POV you're using?
