Amazon says it never planned to display Trump-era tariffs on product pages, disputing a report that drew a sharp response from the White House.
Amazon on Tuesday rejected a Punchbowl News report that it intended to list on its U.S. retail site the added costs of tariffs introduced under President Donald Trump. A company spokesperson said the idea had never been considered for Amazon’s main storefront, although a team operating the low-cost “Amazon Haul” shop had briefly discussed showing import fees on certain items.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said she had spoken with President Trump about the report and quoted him as calling the idea “a hostile and political act by Amazon.” Amazon shares fell about 2.2 percent in pre-market trading after the comments but later recovered.
Since President Trump took office, his administration has applied a series of tariffs on major trading partners, including China. Leavitt pointed to those policies as part of a broader effort to strengthen U.S. supply chains and encourage domestic manufacturing, adding that Americans should “buy American.”
