US President Donald Trump declared his intention to impose 100% tariffs on foreign-made movies. He emphasized the need to revive the American movie industry, which he believes is facing rapid decline due to competition from other countries offering incentives to filmmakers.

Trump sees this as a national security threat and a form of messaging and propaganda against the US.

Since his return to the White House, Trump has been actively imposing tariffs on various countries. He argues that these tariffs will benefit US manufacturers and safeguard jobs.

However, the global economy has been disrupted, leading to anticipated price increases on goods worldwide. Trump’s aggressive trade policies have stirred tensions with nations across the globe.

Prior to his inauguration, Trump appointed renowned film stars Jon Voight, Mel Gibson, and Sylvester Stallone as special ambassadors to promote business opportunities in Hollywood. Additionally, he aimed to revitalize the industry, which he described as great but troubled.

Despite being a key player in global film production, the US has encountered challenges in recent years. Competing countries like Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the UK have seen a rise in production spending, while the US experienced a decline.

In conclusion, Trump’s vision was to bring back Hollywood’s lost business from foreign countries and make it bigger, better, and stronger than ever before.
