‘Iphones Sold In U.S…’ Trump THREATENS 25% Tariff On Apple If Iphones Are Not Made In U.S | Shocking [Video]

‘Iphones Sold In U.S…’ Trump THREATENS 25% Tariff On Apple If Iphones Are Not Made In U.S | Shocking

President Donald Trump has threatened Apple with a 25% tariff if it continues manufacturing iPhones outside the US. In a post on Truth Social, Trump warned CEO Tim Cook that iPhones sold in America must be built domestically—not in India or elsewhere. The warning follows Cook’s recent statement that most iPhones in the US will soon originate from India. Although finished smartphones currently enjoy tariff exemptions, Trump’s aggressive trade policies may disrupt Apple’s global supply chains and cost the company nearly $900 million this quarter alone. #TrumpTariffs #AppleIndia #iPhoneManufacturing #AppleTariff #TimCook #TruthSocial #TrumpVsApple #MakeInUSA #TechNews #USIndiaTrade #TariffThreat #iPhoneTariff #AppleProduction #TechPolitics #GlobalTrade #TradeWar #USChinaTensions #AppleUSA #TariffImpact #ManufacturingShift Also Read Who Stands To Lose If Apple Moves iPhone Manufacturing Unit From India To US & How Much Will iPhone Cost Then? :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/who-stands-to-lose-if-apple-moves-iphone-manufacturing-from-india-to-us-how-much-will-iphone-cost-4155861.html?ref=DMDesc Donald Trump Urges Apple CEO Not To Manufacture In India: 'Tim, We Are Treating You Really Good' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-urges-apple-ceo-not-to-manufacture-in-india-tim-we-are-treating-you-really-good-4154037.html?ref=DMDesc How Apple Boosted Production To Export 600 Tons Of iPhones From Chennai To US To Beat Trump’s Tariffs :: https://www.oneindia.com/chennai/how-apple-boosted-production-to-export-600-tons-of-iphones-from-chennai-to-us-to-beat-trump-s-tariff-4120181.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.124~
