Trump had a point, for example, to put tariffs on steel to protect the US steel industry. Tariffs are common. Europe, for example, has huge tariffs on Brazilian meat (was 230% don't know how much today) and 42% percent on Chinese bicycles. So Trump simply had to put tariffs where tariffs are reasonable (does his dictionary contain the word 'reasonable' ?) and never use the words 'trade war'.
