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

What a fucking tool.
Yes he is, but that’s who you voted to lead

So now that apple bent the knee can people finally stop buying apple shit?
Google hasn’t “bent the knee”?

Gift? You mean bribe.

Of course it's still corporate cronyism.

“Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai visited Trump at Mar-a-Lago after the election, and Google donated $1 million to the inauguration fund”
Cost of doing business

I guess I'm the only one who sees this as "here little Donald, now play with this and let me do my job".
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

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.

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

So is Google and every major company

I already hate Apple products, so I can't not buy them to make a statement about not supporting fascist loving corpo scum.

Will you stop using Google products, including Android and YouTube or are you just a hypocrite?
-
Why don't they just transfer $200k directly to Trump?

Not a big enough bribe at this scale

I want WebOS back.
Or a clean, normal, non-Android phone version of Linux.

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?

Time to boycott Apple just like everybody decided to boycott Target and Amazon for bending over.
Google gave $1M to him
Will you boycott Google products too?

Keeping our morals behind closed doors is what's wrong with the world.
It’s like nuclear weapons
Unless everyone gets rid of them nobody will
Being the only one not to “bend the knee” will just hurt you if everyone else kisses his ass

Imagine prostrating yourself to Trump in this embarrassing way. Sheesh.
Imagine if the CEO of one of the most powerful companies in the world didnt bend over and spread cheeks for a cock so small Donald has to... employ the services of paedos like Jeffery Epstein...?
Donald is suspected of being a paedophile. Yet people still bend the knee like this. I tell you, when it finally comes out, I hope everyone remembers who was happy to continue kissing his ass. Fuck you, Tim.

Imagine prostrating yourself to Trump in this embarrassing way. Sheesh.
All the people that surely criticized Musk at the time, would surely not criticize cook this time, because Apple fans... They have it in their hands

Gift? You mean bribe.
Yes this is a bribe. Period.
-
Imagine prostrating yourself to Trump in this embarrassing way. Sheesh.
Bribery is now not just legal, but mandatory

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.
The shareholders should be ashamed.. That's not good business, that's evil.

Imagine prostrating yourself to Trump in this embarrassing way. Sheesh.

I guess Trump didn't like the rimjob from Tim the first time.
