00:04Apple CEO Tim Cook has pledged an additional $100 billion to U.S. manufacturing
00:11after securing a crucial exemption from President Donald Trump's new semiconductor tariffs.
00:17Cook gifted Trump a custom-engraved glass disc while visiting the Oval Office on Wednesday 6th
00:23of August 2025. It's engraved for President Trump. It's a unique unit of one. It was designed
00:31by a U.S. Marine Corps corporal, a former one, that works at Apple now. He's done well.
00:38Designed it for you. The meeting came just hours before the administration's sweeping new trade
00:44measures took effect, imposing double-digit import duties on goods from nearly 70 countries.
00:50Apple is heavily reliant on global supply chains and faced more than $1 billion in potential
00:58tariff costs this quarter. The exemption now shields the company from steep semiconductor duties.
01:05And the base comes from Utah and is 24-karat gold and it sits. I'll take the liberty of setting it up.
01:18Well, there we go. Congratulations, Mr. President. Thank you so much.
01:34The great people of Kentucky.
