President Trump Claims Samsung’s “Massive Investment” in the US Is a Result of His Tariff Policy

I was drinking my morning coffee — you know how mornings are, right? Anyway, President Trump, out of nowhere, pops up with some big news about Samsung investing in the US. It’s like firms are lining up to get a piece of the American pie. Or maybe they’re just avoiding the giant tax monster. Who knows?

Picture this: Trump, all smiles, shaking hands with folks from India, Japan, South Korea. Trying to get them to drop a bunch of cash stateside. Since he took over, companies like Apple and TSMC have been throwing around plans like confetti. Billions here, billions there. Kind of dizzying. And now Samsung’s supposed to join the party. At least, that’s what The Korea Herald is hinting at — Trump signing some big deal with them soon. Maybe.

> “So, Samsung’s building big in the US because of tariffs,” Trump supposedly said. I can’t say if it’s true, but it’s out there. “They’ll avoid those tariffs this way,” he added. Who am I to argue?

Seems like those who promise big bucks to the US get a happier handshake from the White House. Samsung’s eyeing an expansion in Austin. Picture this: 10,000 new jobs sprouting like wildflowers. They’ve got this thing in Taylor, Texas, too. Cutting-edge stuff, like 2nm tech — whatever that means. But hey, NVIDIA’s all over it.

And there’s this image floating online of a plant doubling in size. It’s grand. $37 billion — a number you kind of have to squint at and then blink, like, twice.

Samsung’s plan involves shifting TV and appliance production. Doesn’t affect Taylor, but tariffs sure do play a game of musical chairs with these plans. Whenever Trump wraps up his trade chit-chat with South Korea, maybe next week, we might hear more. Or not. Time will tell.
