Company’s run by a gay man from a deep red Alabama county. I assume he very much understands what’s it’s like to be target of bigotry and discrimination.
That’s the thing right? Like if Apple/ Tim didn’t, they would be an early Republican target. 1million to hope to keep Trump off your back for a few years is probably worth it.
My point exactly. A gay man from Alabama donating to a rapist, a pedo, a liar, and a failed businessman, who not only continues showing he doesn’t understand how the economy works, but also threatens to start a war with another NATO member.

He’s still going to donate $1 million to Trump’s inauguration.

a bit less than one-tenth of one percent of one day’s revenue.
yea, probably ‘worth it’.
The $1m is being donated personally by Tim Apple. Not from Apple Inc., so bears no relation to Apple’s revenue.
I’ll believe that only if his compensation for 2025 is the same as 2024 or lower. But we all know it’ll at least be $1M more.
He’s just indirectly providing a $1M interest free loan for the company.
it’s in there somewhere.

All for tax cuts
Fair point. He paid the protection money instead of fighting.
That’s a good strategy, because appeasing fascists always works out well.
