The very public donation to Trump's inaugural committee may have been enough.

Apple is hugh, is an economic factor in the US --- and is extremely hard hit because of those tariffs, more so than most firms, because of it's total dependency on China. Could it therefore not be that this exemption simply is a prudent rational decision, to give Apple time it urgently needs?

A different point: With Apple being still a big factor in Berkshire´s earnings (Is it? I am not current on this), it will be interesting to see whether that exemption wilk cause a strong upward move on Berkshire´s price next week.
