President Donald Trump smacked down a reporter who tried to goad him into backing down about the effectiveness of his tariffs during a testy encounter in the Oval Office on Wednesday.

The question occurred against the backdrop of his decision to pause a planned 50% tariff on European Union nations on Tuesday.
