President Donald Trump on Wednesday took aim at politicians who criticize trade talks and the use of tariffs, tweeting, "What can they be thinking?"
The president followed up by appearing to discuss trade negotiations.
"When you have people snipping at your heels during a negotiation, it will only take longer to make a deal, and the deal will never be as good as it could have been with unity.
On Tuesday, the president praised the use of tariffs.
"Tariffs are the greatest! Either a country which has treated the United States unfairly on trade negotiates a fair deal, or it gets hit with tariffs,” Trump tweeted.
