The president also said he was “looking at” exempting Apple from a coming round of China tariffs. “We have to treat Apple on a somewhat similar basis as we treat Samsung, ” he said.

Obviously, he doesn't believe his own bullshit that China is paying the tariffs. If China is paying, why should Apple be exempt? Also, the comparison with Samsung is another piece of bullshit because, unlike Apple, Samsung makes most of their phones in South Korea, not China.
