Smartphones, computers, and other electronics will be exempt from President Donald Trump’s steep China tariffs, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection revealed late on Friday night.

Apple, Intel, and other execs bribed him during an overpriced dinner.
This whole tariff thing has nothing to do with the country or international relations or manufacturing or whatever.
It’s just his latest personal grift. He just now has the power to say “every CEO in the world must personally give me a bribe or I’ll continue doing some really stupid shit.”
