Donald Trump Threatens To Stop Barbie Dolls Being Sold in US

(TSF) has threatened to place a 100 percent tariff on Barbie maker Mattel, after the company's CEO said it would continue to manufacture outside the U.S. but would be reducing its reliance on Chinese imports.

"I've heard [Mattel] said: 'Well we're going to go counter, we're going to try going someplace else,' " Trump said in the Oval Office on Thursday. "That's OK, let him go, and we'll put a 100 percent tariff on his toys, and he won't sell one toy in the United States, and that's their biggest market."

Newsweek has reached out to Mattel and the White House via email for comment outside of regular business hours.
