President Donald Trump said he would remember the companies that didn’t try to get refunds on tariffs the Supreme Court ruled were illegal earlier this year.

During an interview with CNBC on April 21, Trump was asked about reports that Amazon and Apple Inc. had delayed seeking the refunds over concerns that it would upset the president.
