Thanks for the link, that 39% is pure fiction. It might be fair to argue that trade deficits are problematic, but he needs to stick to the facts.

Can't make the link work for some reason, look up John Oliver explaining Trump's tariff board on YouTube.

What's an "EU-made pickup truck," when did whatever it is become a favourite among U.S. consumers, and who is selling so many of them?

The US administration, however, points to an unfair "asymmetry" in certain tariff rates. For example, the EU applies a 10% tariff on US car imports, while the US charges just 2.5%.

Brussels says, however, that this fails to consider the fact that the US imposes a 25% tariff on EU-made pickup trucks, which are a favourite among US consumers and account for "about one third of all vehicle sales".
