Did Trump demand the EU get off the metric system?

I'm asking because I quit watching when he told them to give up on "the green energy hoax" and drill for oil, and I figured that was coming up further along.
I was so embarrassed, but it was like when my drunken pervert uncle shows up at the family reunion. Everybody already knows what to expect.

He is such an embarrassment to this country. Apparently not to Congressional Republicans, though.
