The Donald does not count services when claiming a European trade surplus, and it is right these services where the US score very, very heavily. If the EU would launch penalty tarrifs on this segment of business and target US services with penalty tarrifs, then it would become as hurting for the US as it may become for Europe. Maybe even more.

The question is whether or not Brussels has the balls to do this.
