Trump held a meeting with the CEOs of three major American 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 path forward on trade." Home Depot's statement said, "We had an informative and constructive discussion with the President and look forward to continuing the dialogue."
In a statement provided to CNBC later that evening, Trump said the meeting "went very well" and added, "I am honored to have them in the Oval Office." (Source: NBC)
