Kubonakala kucacile ukuba ucinga ukuba nayiphi na inkampani ifuna ukuphelisa ukuhlawula irhafu engaphezulu kwimveliso ngoku kuneenyanga ezimbalwa ezidlulileyo nangaphezulu ukuba ingenisiwe ivela kwamanye amazwe, oko kuthetha ukuba iirhafu ukuya kuthi ga kwiipesenti ezingama-25. Kwa-Apple bafuna iMac Pro yabo isuse ezi rhafu zimiselwe ngurhulumente wangoku wase-United States, ekhokelwa ngu-Donald Trump.
Kule meko kuyenzeka ukuba iMac Pro iya kwenziwa ngokupheleleyo kwilizwe laseAsia, ngokuchasene kakhulu nento eyenzekileyo nge-2013 Mac Pro (inkunkuma yenkunkuma) eyayihlanganiswe kwindawo yaseYankee, ngakumbi eTexas. KwiCupertino bafuna ezi ntlawulo zibekwe nguTrump ukuba zingachaphazeli ixabiso lokugqibela lemveliso okanye uqoqosho lwabo, ke bayalwa ukuzama ukuphelisa ezi ntlawulo zongezelelweyo.
Okokugqibela, urhulumente ngulowo unelizwi lokugqibela kulo mbandela kodwa iApple inezicelo ezili-15 zokuba uTrump abuye umva kwaye banako yehlisa iindleko zemveliso esele ibiza. Ngokucacileyo oku kuchaphazela ixabiso lokugqibela lezixhobo kwaye ayisiyi-Apple kuphela, zonke iinkampani ziya kuchaphazeleka ngala maxabiso abekwe yi-United States kwiimveliso ezivela eTshayina.
Uluvo lokuba abapolitiki baseMelika banayo kukuba nonke niyayazi indlela yokunyusa imveliso yesizwe kwaye iinkampani zivelisa kwaye zenze ubuninzi bezinto kunye nezixhobo elizweni, kodwa oko kunexabiso eliphezulu kakhulu kunokwenza kumazwe afana ne China kwaye yiyo loo nto esi siphithiphithi esivele kwezi nyanga zidlulileyo. Ukongeza, eyona modeli isisiseko yeMac Pro yeyona ixabisa ama-6.000 eedola ngenxa yeso sizathu i-Apple inyanzelisa ukuba uTrump asuse irhafu ubuncinci kula maqela kunye nezinto zawo.
