00:00U.S. President Donald Trump traveled to Michigan to celebrate his first 100 days in office on Tuesday.
00:06Speaking to reporters outside the White House, Trump said he had a good call with Amazon Chairman Jeff Bezos.
00:15The call follows media reports that the Republican President complained to Bezos
00:20about a report that the e-commerce giant planned to dispay prices that showed the impact of tariffs which Amazon denied.
00:26Jeff Bezos was very nice, he was terrific, he solved the problem very quickly and he did the right thing and he's a good guy.
00:40Earlier, White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt said on Tuesday, April 29th,
00:44that Amazon's announcement that it will include the price of tariffs on the price tag for products is a hostile act.
00:51I will take this since I just got off the phone with the President about Amazon's announcement.
00:56This is a hostile and political act by Amazon.
01:01Why didn't Amazon do this when the Biden administration hiked inflation to the highest level in 40 years?
01:07And I would also add that it's not a surprise because as Reuters recently wrote,
01:13Amazon has partnered with a Chinese propaganda arm.
01:16Leavitt said she had just spoken to President Donald Trump about the Amazon announcement
01:21and that his message about it was, this is a hostile and political act by Amazon.
01:27Amazon said on Tuesday, its low-cost haul unit had conceded listing import charges for goods in light of new U.S. tariffs,
01:35but denied looking at such a plan for its main website after the White House accused it of a hostile political act.
01:41The Seattle retailer spent a chaotic morning denying a report from Punchable News
01:46that it planned to display prices showing tariffs' impact on Amazon.com.
01:51It acknowledged it had conceded it for certain inexpensive China-made products on haul, but then rejected the idea.
01:59The confusion initially prompted a 2% drop in Amazon shares
02:03after White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt called the reported pricing plan
02:07a hostile and political act by Amazon.
02:10The company said its smaller haul division, which competes for low-cost buyers with Temu and Shein,
02:16had milled displaying import levies.
02:19President Donald Trump has imposed a tsunami of tariffs on U.S. trading partners, including China,
02:25which has seen tariff costs rise by 145% since Trump took office, sending many corporations scrambling.
02:32Trump called Amazon founder and executive chairman Jeff Bezos to complain about the Punchable News report,
02:39a White House official said.
