The Wall Street Journal ripped into President Donald Trump for throwing a “tantrum” over an ad that used the words of Ronald Reagan to argue against the president’s tariffs.

The newspaper’s editorial board accused Trump of acting like a “king” when it comes to tariffs after he ended trade talks with Canada over the ad and imposed a 10 percent tariff on Canadian goods in retaliation.

The spot produced by the province of Ontario features about a minute of a five-minute Reagan gave in 1987 on tariffs and free trade.

“When someone says, ‘Let’s impose tariffs on foreign imports,’ it looks like they’re doing the patriotic thing by protecting American products and jobs. And sometimes for a short while it works—but only for a short time,” Reagan says in the ad.
