“Apple CEO Tim Cook plans to donate $1 million to Donald Trump's inauguration fund, reports Axios. The donation will be a personal donation directly from Cook rather than a donation from Apple”

I’ll defend Apple as being the least shitty of the big tech giants but I can’t defend this.

He should just be honest and said "this $1m is a mandatory payment to trump so that he exempts Apple from tariffs, no other reason", of course, then it's an obvious quid pro quo.
