Are we really saying the government of Europe should be afraid of a foreign business? That honestly sounds like even more reason they should be fighting to regulate.

Iphones are/will be hundreds of dollars costlier because of tarrifs, so 1 billion is nothing to anybody... Also DOGE should make payment for that 1 billion faster executed if they really are about efficiency XD
Don't worry, as Trump and Musk says: "someone else pays the tariffs".
Let's see if they realize they are also someone else's else.

The US already completely alienated Europe. What is Trump going to do, declare war on the EU? He's already set the bridge on fire.
Screwing with Apple is one thing, but trying to "make an example" out of a company with strong ties to the current administration won't end well for them.
