    President Donald Trump vowed Monday to impose “substantial” new tariffs and restrict U.S. chip exports for all countries that do not remove digital taxes and related regulations. Trump wrote on Truth Social that digital services taxes — which are imposed by more than a dozen countries — “are all designed to harm, or discriminate against, American Technology.” “I put all Countries with Digital Taxes, Legislation, Rules, or Regulations, on notice that unless these discriminatory actions are removed, I, as President of the United States, will impose substantial additional Tariffs on that Country’s Exports to the U.S.A.,” Trump wrote. He added that the U.S. would also “institute Export restrictions on our Highly Protected Technology and Chips.”

    “Show respect to America and our amazing Tech Companies or, consider the consequences!” Trump wrote. Trump has long sought to pressure U.S. trade partners into dropping the taxes, which are typically imposed on the world’s largest tech companies, which also happen to be American companies.

    1. So tariffs are to bring back manufacturing or is it to lower the amount of taxes Meta pays? Clowns

      As a Meta shareholder the bribe my company paid to this politician needs to start yielding results.

      This should be a wake up call for other countries, especially Europe, to develop their own platforms.

    8. I hope people understand by Taxing American companies, they are robbing profits which will affect the tax amount American companies will pay to American government. What a double standard? America should not tax other country companies (through Tariffs) but other countries can do it to American companies. Very patriotic bunch here👌

    9. Need to protect the tech jobs being offshored or replaced by AI! Respect the Nasdaq shareholders!!

    10. Wait how are digital taxes involved with the fentanyl trade, that he only has emergency power to implement on most things?

    11. “You can’t tax us. Only I can tax us.” Nvidia, remember to pay your 15% tax for your chips export.

      Thank you for your attention to this matter.

      Millions of people voted for this colossal fucking moron three separate times. It still breaks my brain that so many people are so stupid.
