is that actually a thing?
musk announces lots of things. Whether they actually ever materialise is a different story
We'll see, he do some things between all kids he are father to. But in those caes, it's mostly the mother's who materialise them.
But it would be good if Apple gets more compitition, as the innovation at Apple at least bore me mostly under Cook.
I agree, I don't have an iPad but Apple hasn't had any serious competition in tablets for ages. It would be good to have some!
Steady on. You’ll be calling him a hypocrite. What next? Implying he’s a vacuous, lying, felon betraying adoring impressionable voters while siphoning billions to family and fellow gang members?
LOL... that'll maybe happen when he gets a colony up and running on Mars. Meaning never.
Some of us are old enough to remember the exact same thing with Ronny "I don't recall" Ray-Gun. Most folks didn't know because Nancy was so good at covering for him.
Who? Vance? You can't be referring to that guy who's nuttier than a can of Planter's.
What you are willing to excuse and rationalize away is sickening.
Agree, but Vance doesn’t have the almost religious “God” status that Trump has with his MAGA followers.
Good to read. I know many Americans don’t agree, but I fear the moment, when it’ll not be possible anymore to change anything with that disagreement. I hope protesting will not become pointless. Trump’s working hard to achieve that.
True, but North Korea and Russia probably are to his taste.
They'll just re launch the iPhone 6 in the USA as that's about all that can be built there. At 18 Price.
Tells implies Trump as any control over Apple. Ask is more like it, as article says. Pathetic how media upsells Trump crafted macho image in headlines. That MAGA tingle down their legs is good for web clicks
That is how it should be, but the reality on the ground in our deluded universe right now is that everyone in government is pretending (and MAGA endorses this) that unitary executive power is The Way, and that Trump is allowed to do all sorts of pernicious mischief just because he woke up crabby this morning. He can tariff the hell out of Apple’s products *specifically*; he can sic DOJ and the IRS on them for various fake “investigations”; he can probably cause problems for them with the SEC; and so forth.
But Congress is terrified of him because they’re afraid of being primaried, so (even if they happen to disagree with him) they let him get away with it all.

Maybe, just maybe, I already study the past more than you wish to imagine.
The widespread damnation of Trump by historians seems to have escaped you.
Given how Apple has resources to fight in court for decades plus the tide shift in federal court system toward Trump’s unitary power grabs. Calling SCOTUS and appeal courts left activists is self defeating.
Then Trump attacking India and Apple deals. I think the Whitehouse is running out of corners for Trump to paint himself into with his tariff’s game of checkers.
