On September 6th, US President Donald Trump tweeted on social media, "Europe is'cracking down 'on American excellence again today - imposing a $3.50 billion fine on Google, which could have been used for investment and jobs in the United States. This fine is the latest in a series of fines and taxes against Google and other American technology companies, and it is extremely unfair! American taxpayers will never tolerate this kind of behavior. As I have emphasized before, this administration will never allow these discriminatory practices. In the case of Apple, they were forced to pay a $17 billion fine - in my opinion, this penalty should never exist, and they deserve to recover the money! We must not allow this injustice against American innovation excellence to continue. If the situation does not change, I will be forced to initiate the Section 301 process to revoke these unfair penalties imposed on taxpaying American businesses. "
