🇺🇸🇨🇳 Trump says no exemption for iPhones and other Chinese-made electronics — suggests new tariff coming

President Trump settled the debate over the tariffs on iPhones and other Chinese-made devices — saying that there is no “exemption” and that new duties are coming.

“NOBODY is getting ‘off the hook,'” Trump said on Truth Social Sunday. “There was no Tariff ‘exception’ announced on Friday. These products are subject to the existing 20% Fentanyl Tariffs, and they are just moving to a different Tariff ‘bucket.’”

“We are taking a look at Semiconductors and the WHOLE ELECTRONICS SUPPLY CHAIN in the upcoming National Security Tariff Investigations.”

🇩🇪 Germany has admitted 8.4 million people -- equivalent to a 10% of its pre-existing population -- in just 15 years. In American terms, this would be like four New Yorks. This turbocharged large-scale demographic change is unsustainable and is not, in fact, being sustained.
