Apple CEO Tim Cook gives 24-karat gold gift to Donald Trump

I mean at this point you'll have to boycott everyone. Boycotting isn't gonna cut it anymore.
See, I disagree with this sentiment. Coming from a Canadian we're seeing products in grocery stores and other places we've simply never seen before because all the american product is rotting on the shelves. For instance, I've seen legit Canadian brands of laundry detergent whereas my whole life all I've ever really seen is tide, bounce the usual corp crap.
This is slowly but surely propping up alternatives in a way that simply wasn't possible before and directly contributing to what is currently small manufacturers, farmers and other retailers into becoming viable alternatives to the usual suspects.

This is my own conjecture, but I'm willing to bet that playing nicely with Pres. Trump somehow saves Apple billions more in lost revenue to tariffs and legislation because Trump rewards those who are on his good side. I'm also willing to bet Tim / Apple is pressured to do this and has a very different attitude behind closed doors. Not that this excuses anybody for their actions, but it's clear they're trying to game the system the best they can in the name of "business".
I don't know, I mean if any corporation can eat the loss, it's apple with their insanely high margins.
I'm more inclined to believe there's some form of quid pro quo going on behind the scenes.
Besides, I simply cannot picture Tim Apple as any kind of a hero in this picture. No way he got bullied. He's getting something out of it. You scratch my back. I'll scratch yours.

Gay man gives gift to anti-lgbtq president.

Well fuck, Clarence is basically a black white supremacist.

Tim Cook, and Apple, is supporting a pedophile. Remember that when you walk into an Apple Store, if you can afford to.
I bet most of the people here replying in the comments are typing on what helped pay for that gold plated ass kissing device.

Oh hey, another reason Apple fucking sucks. Look at that.
It’s Apple or Google pretty much here for us Americans. Who do you think we should support? Or do you think we should go back to t9 Nokias?

Is this a "you criticize society yet you participate in it" thing?

Maybe if we were on reddit, here I really don't think that's true.

Imagine prostrating yourself to Trump in this embarrassing way. Sheesh.
Jesus, just pull his fly down and give him a blow job already.

Apple stock did, and unfortunately it even makes sense why. Considering how self-centered Trump is, and how easily swayed he can be by a literal shiny rock being given to him, this was probably a legitimately good trade for Apple.
They spend some money on a gold brick with some laser-cut glass, and the president of the entire country either gives them preferential treatment, or simply doesn't take any more extreme actions he was planning to take against them.
trump loves guady gold plated pieces, he thinks its the epitome of fine furniture or wealth.

Surely 18k gold would be close enough, right?
18? We all know that he prefers 15 or so...
