Trump wanted a US-made iPhone. Apple gave him a gold statue.
Trump’s chip tariffs won’t hit Apple despite no plans for a US-made iPhone.
I’m sick of powerful people / companies kissing his ass, but I can’t deny that this is a smart move for getting out from under his disgusting gaze.
You're viewing a single thread.
Hey, uh, what the fuck? Why the fuck are companies giving the President of the United States Golden statues like he's some sort of Middle Eastern Dictator?
Because he might not be "Middle Eastern" or "Dictator" but he behaves exactly like "some sort of Middle Eastern Dictator".
Ey, relax guy!
Hey, easy pal!
I’m not your pal, buddy!
He's not your buddy, guy!
Because he's some sort of middle eastern dictator. Figurehead of a religion of intolerance and hatred, concerned almost entirely with wealth derived from fossil fuels, utterly irredeemable personality.
Considering this guy got re-elected, there may be some overlap with American qualities here.
To ask for "favors" later. Clearly money sways him, he's imposing tariffs on Brazil because "they've never been good to us", meaning "they don't give USA enough money". It's all about money and how he can get it into him and his pedo friends pockets.
Look at the plane he got, supposedly he's taking it with him after office? I wish he'd just spontaneously explode during a meeting with his pedo buddies, taking them out too. Or on the plane and take them all out over the Pacific.
Because they know that that is really what he is. Everyone has him figured out now. That is why NATO and EU brownnoses him in front of journalists, or why Qatar "gifts" him an airplane.
I think Zelensky has figured it out too, and got on good terms with him.
It’s really comical. It’s like the easiest diplomacy ever, within limits and until your enemy brownnoses too.
Frankly, it’s a shrewd strategy with regards to orangeboi. He’s easily distracted by shiny things and gifts, so give him a shiny gift. He has the attention span of a toddler, and he’s fairly easy to manipulate, if you operate within that context.
Honestly, I can't say I blame them, if it works.
I can blame them. It sets a very dangerous precedent and tacitly legitimises the maga party's bad behaviour.
Because he's pretty much that. Idk about the middle eastern part. (Why did you even include that phrase, are you racist? There are dictators in Europe, South America, North America, all parts of Asia, idk how Australia is nowadays.)
But he's definitely a dictator.
It's a reference to South Park's S27E01 episode.
Don't explain it to the AI, they'll just use it against us.
Rage bait much?
