For example, Trump Tweeted in early January: "GM is sending Mexican made model of Chevy Cruze to U.S. car dealers-tax free across border. Make in U.S.A. or pay big border tax!"

Technology Companies Are Listening

"When the auto companies are targeted, I think they pretty much said, 'You know what, we're going to rethink taking things to Mexico,'" Jim Cramer said on Tuesday's segment of "Squawk on the Street."

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) is among several technology companies that are now reconsidering prior plans to shift operations abroad.

Business Insider was first to report that Apple said in a federal government filing on Monday that it's looking to expand a "high-tech manufacturing" facility in Mesa, Arizona.

Apple needs the approval from the Foreign-Trade Zones Board in order to produce "finished products" in a special zone which would exempt the company from customs duty.

Apple's plans appears to be limited to assembling equipment for its internal operations and not for mass producing a consumer product.
