Imagine prostrating yourself to Trump in this embarrassing way. Sheesh.
Tim Cook, and Apple, is supporting a pedophile. Remember that when you walk into an Apple Store, if you can afford to.
“Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai visited Trump at Mar-a-Lago after the election, and Google donated $1 million to the inauguration fund”
So is Google and every major company
I bet most of the people here replying in the comments are typing on what helped pay for that gold plated ass kissing device.
Nope.
I am typing on a slab of the biggest AI alop search machine with a capital GMaybe if we were on reddit, here I really don’t think that’s true.
I don’t get why people are NOW saying he’s trying to appease trump. He’s been doing it for years. He was front row at his inauguration right next to other billionaires.
Giving him a literal gold bar (though disguised as a stand) is stereotypical buying El Presidente in a Banana Republic bullshit.
Release the Epstein files
Surely they will throw him in prison!
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”.
Keeping our morals behind closed doors is what’s wrong with the world.
Almost like it’s a completely bullshit excuse, like “just following orders”.
Crime isn’t suddenly okay because it’s profitable, no matter how much capitalism wants you to believe it.
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
Nobody should get rid of their nukes. In fact, more countries should have nuclear arms.
Such is life on planet earth.
Bribe. The word you’re looking for
Definitely, as after this it was announced that Apple would not be affected by the 100% semiconductor tariffs.
When you’re rich and powerful as fuck but still bend the knee to a felon rapist pedophile.
All of America’s most “powerful” people are little fucking bitches. Little bitches are calling the shots and representing us to the world. Jesus Christ how pathetic is this country going to get?
Conservatives: Hold my beer.
reality is often disappointing.
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.
The same loophole exists almost anywhere: “its a gift to white house or trumps library”
It’s criminal here too. But laws don’t matter anymore because the “party of law and order” decided to elevate a felon rapist pedophile.
In other countries this would be a criminal offense.
Dialing 911 and telling my local constabulary that the President is doing crimes. But then they just laugh at me and say “We’re all doing crimes! It’s the innocent people who get thrown in jail.”
enthusiastic dick sucking noises
Do stocks go up from such a cringe-move?
They sure did!
Bribery is now not just legal, but mandatory
His name really is Tim Apple now.
Oh hey, another reason Apple fucking sucks. Look at that.
Another reason billionaires fucking suck. They’ll always end up looking out for each other
Class consciousness
Yep the fact that this goes automatically to hating on Apple instead of the rich tells you all you need to know
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?
I want WebOS back.
Or a clean, normal, non-Android phone version of Linux.
Sailfish exists: https://sailfishos.org/
Linux phones will eventually get to a point that I can ditch the big two entirely. I hope. But yeah if I didn’t need the apps for my job, I’d go back to a Nokia T9 in a heart beat. I was a live long before smartphones were, I don’t need one.

Keep bending down and kiss the ring, Tim. You’re not low enough, keep going…
