Kudlow Taylor Riggs, Charles Payne and Gerri Willis panels break down the 90-day trump administrations for tariffs.
The Trump administration is excluding imported smartphones, laptops and other electronics from reciprocal tariffs.
Customs and border patrols issued new instructions for reciprocal tariff negotiations late on Friday, citing the exclusion of those goods from the April 2 executive order, which declared a national emergency due to non-reciprocal trade practices and structural inequalities in the global trading system. Subsequent executive orders increased tariffs in China to 125%.
The updated guidance, which quotes a presidential memorandum issued on Friday, excluded products from China’s 125% Tariff of Trump and its initial 10% global tariff in some countries. They apply for goods that left a warehouse since April 5.

In the president, these companies are being encouraged to produce their production in the United States as soon as possible.”
China accounts for nearly 25% of all electronic goods imported into the US, according to the US International Trade Commission
