Donald Trump doesn't want Apple to "Make in India"

Exactly. It's already cheaper to manufacture iPhones in India and that is why Tim Cook may persist with the original policy. It remains to be seen if he buckles down under the pressure of Donald Trump.

Do friends take advantage of each other? Or does the friendship help each other - be it between countries or individuals. The same logic applies, I feel. And if it's the question of taking "advantage" then I think, that shouldn't be called "friendship". For outsiders like me, or at least talking about me, I have always felt that the US is a fairyland. There is everything that is positive, good and that is one place where nothing can go wrong. But as I grew up and started reading more and more about the US and the current scenario it looks like it is just not this same picture that I had visualised. If I am not wrong, unemployment is a growing concern for the US Administration. There may be fast food jobs, etc but they are low paying as you say. What do you think about the turnaround for a developed country like US?

Well yes China does have tariffs. But those are for exports for as I know. Please enlighted me if I am wrong. But for iPhones I don't think they might increase the tariff because lately I haven't heard that iPhones are also included in the increased tariff from the US to China.

Talking about your second paragraph, if that had been so easy, we all would have lesser headache today. Let alone us, there are citizens in the US who also don't want him donning that post. But he being a businessman has more to contribute. Coming to your first paragraph yes there policies of companies to get done more out of less. India being a huge country with such a huge amount of manpower can easily be the target of companies to get there products manufactured here. The exchange rates may fluctuate to an extent. But generally speaking the cheap rate that mega companies like Apple get, make them more prone to manufacturing products in India.

I also feel that Tim Cook. And I am inclined towards saying Tim Cook as well. Definitely as the head of a company be it Apple or any company for that matter, the CEO or any other responsible high postholder, (or even employees), will obviously think that his company should be profitable. And he will do business accordingly. But only other hand, I think Donald Trump isn't wrong either. He wants employment for his citizens and his point of view may not be wrong. He has been a businessman after all. I am just putting up both the sides.
