President Donald Trump threatened to impose a 100% tariff on imports from any country that levies a digital-services tax on U.S. technology companies, specifically targeting European governments discussing such measures. He announced the threat on social media, framing steep tariffs as a tool to block foreign taxes on American digital services. The move adds to a broader pattern of aggressive tariff actions — including planned auto tariffs, proposed global levies, and prior 100% tariff threats on pharmaceuticals — and raises the risk of retaliation, legal challenges and supply-chain disruption.
