U.S. President Donald Trump said Monday that the European Union is worse than China, hours after Washington and Beijing agreed to slash respective punitive tariffs and de-escalate their trade war.

"European Union is in many ways nastier than China, okay?" Trump said, as he lashed the bloc. "Oh, they'll come down a lot. You watch. We have all the cards. They treat us very unfairly."

Is Trump just going to spin the wheel of tariffs (in his mind)? Next month bring down tariffs on EU, pick another fight with Canada? Then with Australia? India? Japan?
