The thing that makes this unenforceable is that what he means is that he wants to tax movies not filmed fully in the US even if they are American movies.
Sure I’ll accept I got all the details wrong. That doesn’t really matter to my point. My point is that this is another example of him saying something so stupid, that it shouldn’t get any media coverage.

He says shit all the time, and actually tries to do less than 5% of it.
This made me chuckle.
