Anonymous, 03 Jun 2025Trump wants money. That's it.Politicians (A.K.A. scammers) always are.
It doesn't matter who that is, but they always find excuse to collect more tax.

You guys talk like that as for retaliation of some Western country trying to invade yours, but perhaps your nation also tried to invade somewhere else too.
History repeats itself, it goes on endless circle / circular reasoning.
My advice is to not take sides with anybody, but just speak as common people without name of country as authorities are the ones causing problem.

Westerners would always destroy anything even their own thing if they can't control it. Democracy!

Weren't they like stocking everywhere not China? If apple incresses prices, which they will, we all know that they again profit, ider from donald ducks idiocracy or from working klass that would still buy their devices even if it should cost them 6 monthly wages.

Ugly thing is apple will force the same price increase to other countries to coup for the tariff/trump's tax -- maybe not in China as one of their more important market as Apple has been reported to keep giving new discount there.

Both can happen at the same time. And you really have to protect Apple from competition before they can manufacture their phones in the US. The increase in price would make them very uncompetitive.

Have manufacturing back in the US is the right thing to do. Saying that it is not free market is wrong. Most corporation only want to make profit at any cost without paying any good wages to the local people. Secondly it also helps that company haven't to comply with other countries law especially is they are against free speech for example if apple had a factory in the Uk and the govt said that end to end encryption needs to have a backdoor at any cost do you think such a product would sell worldwide if peoples privacy vanished if they used an iphone. Think about it for a minute.

More expensive iPhone prices? Well, welcome to the rest of the world. iPhone prices are already at least 20-40% higher than US MSRP outside the US.
I'm not sure where Trump is going with this. Early on, I thought it was to nudge countries to the negotiating table, which has worked with many countries. But forcing a US company to just flip its supply chain or face tariffs seem to be backward. One should simply look at the local workforce. Can Americans even work in a factory like Foxconn? I remembered Foxconn tried building a factory in the US, and saw that there were no skilled workers there, requiring them to basically import their own skilled workers.

But, but, but, Tim and the other tech giants went to the inauguration.
So that, you know, they will be exempted by the tariffs, Yes.
LOL! Corporations does not understand that "the president" is not one of their own.
And what they do in corporationland, does not work on "the president".
Looks like Tim is gonna be Cooked.

I can already see it. If Americans want to buy an iPhone 17 series without costing a fortune? They would just go to Mexico or Canada and buy the iPhone 17 there. Then travel back to USA carrying your new iPhone 17.

To relocate will be a bad decision for supply chains, costs, inefficient use of capital, declining revenue and profit and less return to shareholders of which many people's 401k is linked to.
