    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.

        Tim Cook, and Apple, is supporting a pedophile. Remember that when you walk into an Apple Store, if you can afford to.

                            thats exactly, its probably just gold plated, and not solid gold.

                                Peter thiel, the architect behind Vance and trump and bilderberg and palantir, is also gay.

                                So gay, he had his former lover killed.

                                    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.

                                        Surely 18k gold would be close enough, right?
