Cook speaks Trump. Fluently.
I have always hated Apple, this is just further proof that they are greedy fucks with no morals.
Giving him a literal gold bar (though disguised as a stand) is stereotypical buying El Presidente in a Banana Republic bullshit.
This is why when the whole media world rushed to protect him when he came out of the closet as gay was total and utter bullshit. He wasn't brave and he doesn't give one hot damn about the gay community clearly.
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.
I already hate Apple products, so I can't not buy them to make a statement about not supporting fascist loving corpo scum.
You know cook loves money more than his principles.
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
I’m not buying any more iPhones. I got used to them and just continued buying them. But no more.
What is engraved on it? What is he saying?
What a stupid fucking dildo. Sucking pp like that.
His name really is Tim Apple now.
I can't watch, the cringe is overpowering.
US oligarchs are friends with regime?
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.
Tim is smart. This is exactly how to survive your shit president, America. Bend him over and kiss his ass, and you’ll survive.
bootlicker
edit: apple polisher is more appropriate and punny
