Just a normal day in Trumplandia. You have to suck the King’s dick to stay alive!

I already hate Apple products, so I can't not buy them to make a statement about not supporting fascist loving corpo scum.

The real Tim Apple

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 7 points 5 days ago

Goddammit Tim Apple, it doesn't even look like anything remotely interesting.

For a split second after he stepped aside to reveal it, I actually thought it was a cool dragon figure. Must've been my mind desperately seeking any meaning in this nonsense because I was looking at the phones.

Seems like someone is worried about tariffs on iPhones. Sadly, this will probably work too.

You know cook loves money more than his principles.

Why don't they just transfer $200k directly to Trump?

Assuming that’s a 5lb paper weight base, is that ~250k$ worth??

Had a hard time hearing what he said... What was it? A gold base for a piece of glass?
