WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump repeated his threat to impose 100% tariffs on movies made outside the United States, a strategy experts have questioned because of uncertainties about which movies would be targeted and how fees would be collected.
"Our movie making business has been stolen from the United States of America, by other Countries, just like stealing 'candy from a baby,'" Trump said in a social media post Sept. 29. "Therefore, in order to solve this long time, never ending problem, I will be imposing a 100% Tariff on any and all movies that are made outside of the United States."
Trump imposed worldwide tariffs in August, to raise money on imports from other countries and force foreign governments to the negotiating table for better trade deals. But Trump's authority to impose the tariffs has been challenged in court, and the Supreme Court will hear arguments Nov. 5 about whether they are authorized.
Movie industry experts questioned in May, after Trump first threatened tariffs on movies made abroad, how the fees would be levied, such as on production costs or ticket sales.
