Just kinda scratching my head that one of the richest CEOs in the world went to the White House yesterday to deliver the president a literal piece of gold in exchange for an exemption to the president's tariffs and did it on live TV.

Not sure which companies have said “fuck you money”. Most notable companies with deep pockets are still beholden to shareholders, and Trump is intentionally pulling levers to pressure companies through them.

That being said, Tim Cook, perhaps ironically, is one of the few(only?) CEOs in my memory to tell investors not to invest in the stock if all they care about is ROI:

Granted that was over a decade ago.
