“Apple CEO Tim Cook plans to donate $1 million to Donald Trump's inauguration fund, reports Axios. The donation will be a personal donation directly from Cook rather than a donation from Apple”

I’ll defend Apple as being the least shitty of the big tech giants but I can’t defend this.

    I didn't follow these donation news too closely, but from the headlines it always sounded like they do it personally!? Maybe Trump makes a point out of it that it comes from them personally? Would make them personally attached to him.

    At least those are so companies I can easily avoid. Amazon hasn't been easy since they monopolized the market but I can still usually buy from someone else. (Unless they charge for shipping and Amazon still ships same product for free at same price).
