I mean, they can't be that surprised, when they literally announced Tim Cook was stepping down as CEO to become Trump's royal cock-gobbler 🤷‍♂️

Pretty sure a lot of of these Apple employees own stock in the company. Perhaps they should remember to cast their vote when it comes time for board elections.

Still, Apple's leadership and most of its rank-and-file are described as "resigned" to these kinds of concessions under Trump's second term, understanding "that Trump will f--- with the company if the company doesn't do what he wants," the person said.

MAGA sympathizers, disgusting.

When power is consolidated, corruption is easy.

If we enforced antitrust laws and broke Apple and Google into a dozen companies each, then a lot more would have to cave for the same result.

When we don't enforce anti-trust laws, the biggest will always suck up to whoever is in office to further de-regulate and approve mergers they shouldn't.

I still have to use Macs for work but I'm excited to check out what else is out there when the time comes to upgrade my personal devices.

What did they expect? The Trump ass kissing has been ongoing but they still work there.
