          When the reporters do that, the people behind him signal him (the laughs, smirks, under breath comments) for him to ignore, deflect and ramble, today's video has a few examples of it all ~ plus he doesn't want to learn, he abhors his job except the perks.

          Here's what's weird. He obviously thinks they're somehow a form of tax to levy against a foreign government. Yet, he still does make it around to claiming they've helped domestic steel. Which, would be the goal of protectionist tarrifs. He's not working with a full deck.
