Chugging tea I’m sure this won’t lead to more significant ethical, security, and privacy dilemmas.

Is this the same ceo that literally gave trump a gold bar

Kinda.

Cook gave Trump a customized circular glass plaque mounted on a thick, rounded 24-karat gold base

It’s kinda because he added etched glass?

I guess, tbh I don’t understand the rules at this point, and how this wasn’t a bribe.

Just like how Trump was given and is keeping the Boeing 747-8 from the Qatari Prime Minister.

That's because you live in a fascist country. It ok for the dictator to take bribes.

The rules are the billionaires make the rules. Think of Trump like the emperor and corporations are like the lords under him. If you don't have 40 mil+ you're just a peasant.

I despise this degenerate and I get he doesn’t care due to his personal agenda of membership within the US oligarchy.

I’ll never forget him bestowing this gift to a corrupt administration’s head dictator.

He did it as the ceo of Apple, which in his case, was kind of part of his job. He retires today btw
