On November 21, it was reported by Reuters that President Trump of the United States and CEO Cook of Apple recently visited Apple's factory in Austin, Texas. The factory is responsible for assembling Mac Pro desktop computers. Since this is a product produced in the United States, Apple does not have to pay their import taxes. Trump has told Apple in the past that Apple can avoid paying tariffs by building factories in the United States.
In response to a reporter's question, Trump said that the United States is considering exempting Apple from tariffs on imports from China.
Earlier yesterday, Apple announced that its new factory in Austin had begun construction. It is expected that the factory will be put into use in two years, initially employing 5000 employees, and under the condition of full load operation, the number of employees in this factory will reach 15000.
Trump said: "Anyone who pays attention to my campaign knows that I always talk about Apple. I hope to see Apple build factories in the United States, and now this has happened. I have great respect for Tim Cook, who is a great leader and a great businessman."
