Coming from a non-US centric point of view: I generally believed in the idea that the government does everything it does for the good of an entity. Sometimes that entity is the people (legality of cannabis), sometimes it is one person (presidential pardons) and sometimes its a company (bailouts). We can argue how ‘good’ any of these actions actually are, but thats beside the point. I always knew there were backdoor deals and some companies or some people got special privileges (corruption). But that was always behind closed doors. Rarely did it leak to the public stage and when it did, news coverage and accountability followed (usually).
However you may feel about government, it generally works on the principles of law. The ideal was; If you followed the law, you had the same opportunity as anyone else doing it.
I still can’t comprehend how Trump completely flipped this around. There is no semblance of just democracy and unjust corruption anymore. Giving the president actual gold in exchange for an exemption of law while openly broadcasting it. The ideal is broken and shattered on live TV. Justice is now blind because Trump is pissing on her face and she cant look at his limp dick anymore.
It makes perfect sense when you see the billionaires as lords and Trump as king. It’s a feudal kingdom ruled by royals, not a nation with laws. That’s just how it is now.
Paying tribute to the robber baron in chief.
The Return On Investment of Corruption has always been massive in the US.
Tim Apple simply exchanged a $4k trinket for billions in savings. This is probably not even the most pathetic thing a billionaire does on the daily.
Just existing is already embarrassing for a billionaire.
Still 100% pathetic
For all involved
He’s never seen a baron make a display of fealty to a king before?
People who said that Trump won’t tax the rich must be in shambles right now
the constitution ain’t shit.
Afterwards, and it wasn’t shown on TV, in the presidential bathroom Tim apple got on his knees and sucked trumps cock. He even tickled his balls with his tongue.
As another gay man, this guy is a disgrace to all gays. He bends over backwards to serve a child fucking rapist. Just to save some cash for a company with basically limitless cash.
Well that person is against your lifestyle. Nothing like liking the balls of an anti gay Republican.
The CEO has to make sure that the Line Always Goes Up!
Line Must Go Up
Its a fucking bribe. Way to go America. I hope you choke on it.
Tim cook bend the knee. 🤔
lol he behaves like a mediaeval king in addition to smelling like one
He was demonstrating how bribery works in a corrupt system.
Tim Bitch.
Not at all. For the sake of at least one of our major technology companies, I’m happy Tim was able to bribe mango Mussolini so cheaply. For the cost of a small piece of gold and a little pride, tim cook saved his company potentially billions of dollars. Well worth it.
Of course it also violates every business ethics training I’ve had to goto, so it’s probably bribery that would usually get him thrown in jail. But again, good for him to know when being immoral is the right thing to do.
This is not like the situation with Harvard where jaundice Jesus is trying to gain control, destroy its reputation. Harvard has to resist or lose itself. Apple is just one small piece of gold to allow business as usual
You know, people might agree with you if Tim Cook’d up this scheme to save people’s livelihoods but he didn’t, and we both know that.
He is going to lay off the exact same number of people to make the number go up harder.
Doing it on Live Television is the whole point. Trump wants the world to see exactly how to avoid things like Tariffs and get preferential treatment: bribe him personally and/or “kiss the ring”.
So Trump is trying to hurt/disadvantage other countries/companies by decreasing the buying power of us citizens… ergo hurting their bottom line. How much money does the us give to the penguins, compared to other countries like China?
Look how I still insult him in an attempt to be funny… Nobody can match Trump’s pure athleticism, nor his pedo proclivities.
…LACK of… Nobody can match Trump’s LACK of pure athleticism…
Meant to put /s
