  • 8 years ago
President-elect Trump this week spoke to Tim Cook on the phone, and asked the Apple CEO to bring more of its manufacturing back to the US. “I got a call from Tim Cook at Apple, and I said, ‘Tim, you know one of the things that will be a real achievement for me is when I get Apple to build a big plant in the United States, or many big plants in the United States, where instead of going to China, and going to Vietnam, and going to the places that you go to, you’re making your product right here.’ Trump said he promised Cook and other tech companies incentives for manufacturing stateside, including "a very large tax cut for corporations."
