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

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
Yeah the real story here should be hey everyone, look how transparently easy it is to manipulate the President of the United States

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
This is apple we're talking about. Not some random company.

A set of shiny keys dangled in his face so he forgets about demanding a US-made Iphone.

Google hasn’t “bent the knee”?
How about we make all tech ceos work in the cobalt mines instead of children

wrote last edited by [email protected]In other countries this would be a criminal offense. For example in Austria: if the value of the gift is above 50000€ , it's 6 months - 5 years; if over 300k€ it's 1-10 years of prison.

Back door to Apple customer data maybe?
They already get that from the PRISM act.

“Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai visited Trump at Mar-a-Lago after the election, and Google donated $1 million to the inauguration fund”
Apple's Tim Cook donated $1 million personally to Trump. Not Apple Inc, Tim Cook. And now he's donating this as well. These are not the same.

Now that's pathetic. Whatever happened to apple? What was even the latest cool thing they did? Seems almost irrelevant now

The same loophole exists almost anywhere: "its a gift to white house or trumps library"

Well fuck, Clarence is basically a black white supremacist.
It’s pretty clear by now that the character Stinkmeaner is based wholly on Clarence Thomas

On nerdy sites like Lemmy people tend to fawn over Google and they can do no wrong
And every slight Apple does is The Worst Ever
If Google does the same thing, out come the excuses.
