Trump held a meeting with the CEOs of three major US retailers - Walmart, Target and The Home Depot on the 21st. These CEOs went to the White House to discuss the potential impact of Trump's comprehensive tariff plan on their highly import-dependent business models.
After the meeting, the three companies released almost identical statements. A Walmart spokesperson said, "We had a productive discussion with President Trump and his team, and appreciate the opportunity to share our insights."
Target said in its statement, "We had a productive meeting with President Trump and our retail peers to discuss the way forward on trade." The Home Depot's statement read, "We had an informative and constructive discussion with the President and look forward to continuing the dialogue."
In a statement provided to CNBC later on the evening of the 21st, Trump said the meeting "went very well" and added, "It was an honor to have them in the Oval Office." (Source: NBC)
