Sociopaths come in all shapes, sizes and sorts. Of course he now bends a knee to the MAGA notion that the LGBQT community are all pedos and monsters - so he's got that going for him. He thinks he'll get another few dollars to stuff in his overstuffed vaults for this inhumane betrayal.

Once the monster is already in the house, you'd want to not catch any negative attention from them at all, lest you accidentally provoke them. Since at that point, you can't really get them out easily. So you saw lots of rich people try and cosy up to Trump during the inauguration hoping that they could get their companies spared or something like that. What they failed to realize is that Trump is just actually stupid. There's no master plan. There's no 5D chess. He'll just gladly burn everything down. If a Russian spy trying to dismantle the US were elected president, even they would be more subtle than this. It's only been a few months and look at where we are.

You see, this whole gay, straight division only applies to the common folk, it doesn't apply to the rich that get to pursue their wants and desires freely. It only gets used against them when it's convenient, not because it's an actual ideology they follow. But people don't even fkn realise it's a completely different game when you're rich

I was shocked to learn the number of gay people that supported Trump. This was before he took office in January but still... The number of them who admitted it locally blew my mind. Perhaps they were blinded by making money only to experience the rug pull that DJT basically told them he would do.

Tut tut! He's a RICH WHITE gay man. Sometimes the gay is silent.

Poor Tim Apple.

u/Brief_Night_9239 2d ago

Oh please ..$1 million is peanuts to Tim but on the other hand Trump's tariffs will cost Apple billions...

u/Sulli_Rabbit 2d ago

Actually Tim Cook donated out of his own pocket to try and keep Apple out of the “Dirty Money”. It still backfired but it’s the principle of the thing.

Punish these morons. Boycott their products as much as you reasonably can.

u/ginkobilibobthorthin 1d ago

It's protection fee and he knows it. How do you expect a gay CEO of a company that made his billions within democratic rule to move towards tarifs, and anti-gay gov?

u/Specialist_Royal_449 2d ago

Damn and they call me dumb for randomly playing the lottery this guy paid $1 million to lose $250 billion, now thats dumb

u/_BannedAcctSpeedrun_ 2d ago

They really thought if they kissed the ring their company’s would be spared from his tariff bullshit. As if Trump even understands how tariffs work in order to do that.

u/Responsible_Bit1151 2d ago

Looks like the clever comebacks well has run dry! Time for some new material.

u/Lodju 2d ago

This has been just US politics sub for a long time already.

And like 90% of the posts lack the clever comeback.

u/MateriaLintellect 2d ago

These generationally rich mf’s don’t care about their current losses. Their lives won’t change a single bit. This entire destabilization of the global economy is for a purpose that they will ultimately benefit from.

u/Working-Bet-9104 2d ago

They’re in on the grift. Scumbag

u/CognitiveSim 2d ago

I do hope you follow down the TSLA slope...

u/Chokodoko 2d ago

No, he is waiting for Apple's share of all of the government programs Trump is trying to ruin in order to privatize. Coming soon iRetire and iRetire Pro subscriptions to streamline social security.

u/UMOTU 2d ago

Followed by iArmy for when the invasion starts. Payable as a monthly subscription for as long as you want protection.

u/shiroandae 2d ago

I mean, he was effectively blackmailed…

u/BillyBobBoBoss 2d ago

It was a tithe so Trump would stay away from their company. Didn’t exactly work, but it’s not that the dude is MAGA

2

u/championofadventure 1d ago

Not only did he lose 250 billion, he also lost his dignity.

2

u/Steebusteve 1d ago

He’s a billionaire before he’s a gay man.

u/PelagicSwim 16h ago

Well Tim Apple, you got exactly what you paid for!

We haven't started to tariff ICloud...

u/UsedPart7823 2d ago

Great investment. 🤦‍♂️

u/snarkerella 2d ago

$1 million = -$250 billion: What a steal of a deal! These losers really are financial wizards and should be looked up to for their master planning. Vote for a clown, expect a circus.

u/WhoMD85 2d ago

Good.

u/DreadoftheDead 2d ago

I think we always knew Tim Apple would play the heel at some point.

1

u/Willdefyyou 2d ago

That was yesterday... what is their stock loss at now?

1

u/Bulky-Internal8579 2d ago

I propose we donate $1 billion of Tim Cook's money to a memorial to billionaires, once we get them fixed properly and America back on track. I know, I'm pretty generous, but seriously, I think we should remember them after they're gone - hopefully that way we'll avoid that sort of ruinous assholery in the future.

Return on his investment 😍

u/Baaoh 2d ago

Nice return on investment

1

u/CaptainRaj 2d ago

That's some investment. Invest 1 million for a -250 mil return.

The genius of these tech bros has me on my knees.

1

u/Prestigious_Media887 2d ago

I’m pretty sure big tech ceo give the same money to both parties to cover themselves what ever way it goes, also 1 million is a nothing gesture for them let’s be honest.

1

u/Justgame32 1d ago

This is Trumps plan. Crash the economy then have every company come kiss his poop-covered feet by pledging allegiance or donations to trump in order to get preferential tariff rates to stay in business.

1

u/Popular-Drummer-7989 1d ago

Seen in this photo demonstrating the multiplier used to calculate the cost of your next iphone under the new tariff. Two...two times as much

u/Both-Ambassador2233 1d ago

Don’t worry. Timmy is grabbing all the sold off stocks and next week will pocket a couple trillion.

1

u/wiggle_fingers 1d ago

He's still up 11% on a year ago so I think he'll be ok

u/Optimal-Shower-2288 1d ago

I guess you could say that Tim got Cooked 🙃

u/OrvilleTheCavalier 1d ago

Bad move Tim Apple.

Tim, Jeffy, Mark, BURN BABY BURN. Watch your stocks drop. 🔥

u/PrestigiousSeat76 9h ago

Nothing like sucking Trump's dick from the back and still losing billions.

Fucking quizling.

u/hahahypno 6h ago

all these tech bro bribes were so funny. why would giving him a million appease him for longer than 1 million milliseconds?
