President Donald Trump has tried to spin his latest U-turn as a gesture made in “honor” of King Charles’s visit to the U.S.
The 79-year-old president, whose mother was an immigrant from Scotland, announced Thursday that he would remove the tariffs he imposed last year on Scottish whiskeys.
“In Honor of the King and Queen of the United Kingdom, who have just left the White House, soon headed back to their wonderful Country, I will be removing the Tariffs and Restrictions on Whiskey having to do with Scotland’s ability to work with the Commonwealth of Kentucky on Whiskey and Bourbon, two very important Industries within Scotland and Kentucky,” the royal superfan wrote on Truth Social.
