The White House launched a critique against Amazon after reports emerged about the company's plan to disclose how tariffs would impact pricing on their platform. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt questioned Amazon's timing, suggesting inconsistency with prior inflation spikes under the Biden administration. Despite the White House's harsh rhetoric, Amazon refuted the claims, insisting they wouldn't display tariff charges. The discussion highlighted the increasing scrutiny the administration faces regarding tariffs, and how these might lead to rising consumer prices, amidst Amazon's own shifts on pricing transparency.
The White House criticized Amazon for planning to display tariff costs, alleging a hostile act, while Amazon denied any intentions to show those charges.
Despite the White House's criticism, analysts indicate that the administration's response stems from a misunderstanding of Amazon's internal discussions regarding tariff displays.
