Todd Gormick of San Clemente, a Trump supporter who makes kids' scooters, warns they "are likely to put our entire company of 100 people 'Out of Business'... producing in the USA isn't really an option" https://t.co/Dy6TEA73wM
In a joint submission, Dell, HP, Intel & Microsoft call for laptops/tablets to be shielded from tariffs, fearing "price increases will hit during peak holiday and back-to-school demand seasons" (and won't achieve anything anyway)https://t.co/qKAYgfZyW8

Article mentions that Fitch identified Apple as a potential target for China's unreliable entity list. Not sure if that's the main cause (trade war is reason enough), but good example of how aggressive policy can accelerate supply chain shifts https://t.co/2eukz0tSdP

This potential move by Apple really speaks to how the trade war could have a long term impact even if a deal is reached in the short term. Apple can’t just undo a supply chain shift. https://t.co/KoDgVFXX11
