In-town pool report 14: Navarro gaggle on digital tax, EU retaliatory tariffs

Trade adviser Peter Navarro gaggled in the driveway for roughly 10 minutes about the agreement with the U.K.

On the UK digital services tax, Navarro said it's "still in negotiations."

"That's a very big deal to President Trump"

Navarro also addressed the EU's blueprint for retaliatory tariffs:

"Any country which retaliates against the United States, which is simply trying to get fairness, is making a grave mistake"

"For them to publish stuff like that, I don't think it's in the interest or the spirit of negotiations that are going to be as affective as they otherwise would"
