Well Obama is acting in accord to the US steelworkers (or whatever they're called) union's request to impose a tariff on tire companies.
If that isn't appeasing unions, I don't know what is.
We can only speculate other possible motives (which is what threads like this are for, imo).
Yeah, I will agree with you it isn't the best for the economy to do this.
But Obama, the unions, & his worshippers may see otherwise.
Even US tire manufacturers like Goodyear & Cooper are either ambivelent or against this tariff.
US owned companies have factories in China too.
