Trump complained to Bezos before Amazon said it scrapped idea to display tariff cost
"President Donald Trump personally called Amazon
founder Jeff Bezos on Tuesday to complain about about a report that the online retail giant was considering displaying U.S. tariff costs on its product listings, a source familiar with the matter told NBC News.
Within hours of the call, Amazon publicly downplayed the scope of its plan — and then announced that it had been scrapped entirely.
The pressure campaign on Bezos by Trump and the White House came after Punchbowl News reported earlier Tuesday that Amazon will soon show consumers how much of an item’s cost comes from tariffs.
The amount added as a result of tariffs will be displayed right next to each product’s total listed price, a person familiar with the plan told the news outlet."
