IMF Slashes US Growth WARNING It Will Be Hardest Hit by Trump Tariffs
BBC News 23 APR 2025
Trump granted Apple and many other tech businesses an exemption from his Liberation Day tariff regime so their supply chains in China would not be disrupted and now a bunch more companies are coming to beg for similar arrangements
Almost immediately, top aides to Mr. Trump insisted they had not strayed from their promise to apply import taxes across the economy with minimal, if any, exceptions, reported Tony Romm. Nevertheless, Trumps policy still caught the attention of many businesses nationwide, igniting a fresh scramble for similar help in the throes of a global trade war.
Per the report, Trump has been inundated with pleas for the agriculture, construction, manufacturing, retail and technology industries to make further carveouts from his tariffs, with many arguing that there are some products they must import simply because they are too expensive or impractical to produce in the United States.
Home Depot, Target, and Walmart are among the retail giants telling Trump they cannot maintain their current prices if they dont get some kind of relief from tariffs.
Trumps policy imposed 10 to 49 percent reciprocal import duties on virtually every other country, with rates set according not to actual trade barriers or foreign tariffs, but to the size of the U.S. trade deficits with each country an idea that seems to have originated with Trumps longtime trade adviser Peter Navarro.
After markets plunged in response to the policy, and amid rising discontent even from a number of Republican lawmakers, Trump announced a three month grace period in which all countries except China would be subject to the minimum rate of 10 percent.
