Global stocks continued to tumble for a third straight session, with Europe's main market indexes losing more than 4% for the day. Taking to social media, Donald Trump called for patience saying "don't be a stupid". In a separate post, the US president threatened to impose additional 50% tariffs on Chinese imports if Beijing didn't withdraw its retaliatory measures.

I saw a clip of a trump official literally saying they want to bring the specific job of screwing iPhones together over to America instead of it being done for $2 a day overseas...

Even if the tarrifs "work" and gets those jobs, it's still going to drastically increase prices, because Apple isn't going to let profits dip.

There's zero ways America wins this one.
