“Donald Trump has repeated his threat to impose a 100% tariff on {American viewers of] all films not made in the US, claiming the American industry had been ‘stolen’ by other countries. He said on Monday that California had been heavily affected and the levy ‘would solve this long time, never ending problem.’ In May, the US president said he would talk to Hollywood executives about his plan and to begin the process of imposing the levy because America’s film industry was ‘dying a very fast death.’ Trump’s remarks come as he announced a new wave of tariffs last week, including a 100% levy on [American buyers of] branded or patented drug imports as well as 50% levies on [American buyers of] kitchen and bathroom cabinets.” (09/29/25)
