Donald Trump says “Everybody’s been bugging me” about U.S. tariff on Irish whiskey

President Donald Trump said Sunday that the United States will remove its 10% tariff on Irish whiskey, announcing the decision as the Irish Open ended in Ireland. The step followed appeals from golfers and Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin, and Trump indicated he acted after receiving requests on the matter. The change eliminates the levy on Irish whiskey, a move that affects U.S. tariff policy toward the spirit. The announcement came during Trump’s weekend trip to Ireland.
