      Yeah, cause margins don’t exist. Remember when the Republicans were yelling at Biden for blaming inflation on greedy Jewish grocers?

        You either die a tariff hawk, or live long enough to embrace greedflation.

                At least Trump will make pro capitalism noises though.

                  Perhaps along with also more ICE raids at Walmart locations?

                            I know this is wasted CO2 at this point but how does Trump have the "power" to point to a specific company and tell them they're going to pay a 25% tax on their products?

                              I vaguely recall there is a political ideology that says the government centrally controls what you produce. What's that called again?

                                Of course it would cost way more than 25% of the iPhone price just to manufacture them here, to say nothing of the cost of building new plants, etc, to accommodate a policy that will be voided by the next administration. So we'll get more expensive phones AND no jobs.

                                Win-win!

                                  Tim Cook made a valiant effort to explain things to him in the white house last week, but apparently to no avail. Trump lives in his own economic reality. So, this will just be a drag on America's greatest company, to no benefit to anybody, other than maybe Apple's international competition.

                                          Back to 50% tariffs for the EU.

                                          ... Our discussions with them are going nowhere! Therefore, I am recommending a straight 50% Tariff on the European Union, starting on June 1, 2025. ...
