            Why don't they just transfer $200k directly to Trump?

            "ewww, that would be bribery. This is not a bribe, it's a ... gift? Yes, it's a gift. Definitely a gift. And we expect nothing in return ;⁠-⁠);⁠-⁠) just a little gift. And this is definitely not a distraction from the orange buffoon being a child rapist and being mentioned many times on the Epstein list!!!"

              Honestly I am pretty sure this is a bribe to exempt Apple from tariffs. Billionaires care more about their profit than children being harm. It’s the sad truth.

              At this point it seems like half of them became billionaires just to be the ones harming the children.

                  Here's an idea, instead of killing thousands of CEOs why don't we just off 100 Republican Legislators? Let's compare outcomes: fuck all they're replaceable OR a legislative body that actually represents us.

                  Whoa whoa there, slow down. You're talking crazy. Let's be reasonable.

                  The only way to get any sort of reliable data is to let BOTH camps go nuts and see which one gets more attention and results.

                    This is a bit like mark rutte calling Trump “daddy”. It’s completely inconsequential in actual reality but still feels so entirely wrong. And I don’t even know who should be most embarrassed, the bootlickers or Trump for being transparently narcissistic that everyone realizes bootlicking works

                            Look at this move from a purely business perspective:

                            Give the toddler a shiny toy, toddler plays nicely.

                            And oh my fuck it's such a cheap gift from the war chest of Apple's bajillions. The real story is the Trump is too stupid to be insulted!

                            Been screaming for years, "PLAY this narcissistic fool!" Just wish world media and politicians and celebrities would get in the game. He's a CHILD! PLAY HIM! Instead we got world leaders rolling over. Heysus.

                            Nah, not hating on Cook for making an hilariously logical move.

                            Nah, it would have been way better (especially for literally everyone else) if they didn’t play at all.

                            Instead all the greediest people are realizing they can do this and they get all the things they want (so does Trump, along with more power) and it’s only at the expense of the entire American population (and the rest of the world too).

                            Fuck Cook.
                            It isn’t clever. It’s literally greed. It’s not even that other people haven’t thought to do this, it’s that you have to be a total piece of shit to do this.

                                    OK let me play devil's advocate for a moment: it's the only language he speaks. You must stroke his ego, and give him an opportunity to look down on you.

                                    Of course it's still corporate cronyism.

                                        That’s exactly it.

                                        Promise things that you’re doing anyway, use big numbers - hundreds of billions

                                        Give him some shiny crap, he loves it

                                        Praise him

                                        Then he’ll let you go on as usual
