Trump is speaking during a trade event 
Trump is a modern Sun Tzu: "I want to make sure we have a steel industry & an aluminum industry, & we do need that for national defense. If we ever have a conflict, we don't want to be buying steel from a country that we're fighting, because somehow that doesn't work very well."
Trump crosses his arms as he starts blasting Obama's trade policies

Addressing Democrats senators, Trump tells them: "The difference is, we want to help DACA, you don't, okay?.... I'm kidding. I'm sure you do."
Trump, ranting nonsensically: "We have steel coming into our country from countries that don't even know what steel is. They don't make it, they never made it... and it comes pouring into our country, and free. Free. And it's a very bad situation."

"I would really like to see you come back with a counter-proposal on the infrastructure... it's very important... if you have any suggestions, call me... & I think we probably can do it"
