Is it true that he didn't place tariffs on Russia?

They used a large language model to formulate the tariffs based on trade deficits. If there was no trade, there won’t be trade deficits either.

Using something like chatgippity to write policy is, of course, extremely stupid, but it’s also par for the course.
