Tim Cook Just Polished Trump’s Shoes—With What’s Left of His Integrity
Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO and supposed champion of progress, just handed some kind of award—or worse, legitimacy—to Donald Trump: a felony-stained, twice-impeached, racist, rapist, and more-likely-than-not pedophile.
Let’s not sugarcoat it. This wasn’t diplomacy. This was disgrace. It was a tech titan publicly embracing the same man who incited a violent coup attempt, mocks the disabled, demonizes immigrants, brags about sexual assault, and caters to white supremacists like they’re part of his base—because they are.
For years, Cook postured as the “moral” face of Silicon Valley. He spoke out on civil rights, climate change, and privacy like he was the adult in the room. But when faced with a moment to actually stand for something, he folded like a cheap product made in a sweatshop.
Whether it was for tax cuts, access, or just cowardice, Cook chose to dignify a man who disgraced the presidency and threatens democracy with every breath.
Tim Cook didn’t just fail a test of character. He showed us he never had any to begin with.
