    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    Apple Thanks President Trump for Being the Most Pro-Technology President Ever; Introduces the Trump Channel on Apple TV

    Cupertino, California — Apple today announced a bold new partnership with the 47th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, thanking him for his unwavering support of technology, innovation, and large gold letters on buildings. In recognition of his tireless contributions—like personally inventing the iPhone before Steve Jobs “borrowed” the idea—Apple is proud to launch The Trump Channel on Apple TV.

    “President Trump is, without question, the most pro-technology president the world has ever seen,” said Tim Cook, staring blankly into the middle distance. “His visionary policies—such as renaming Wi-Fi to ‘Trump-Fi’ and personally boosting 5G by standing next to a cell tower—have created the greatest jobs numbers in the history of silicon. Truly, nobody’s ever seen anything like it.”

    The Trump Channel will feature:

    Exclusive Original Programming, including The Apprentice: Cabinet Edition and Shark Tank but Everyone’s a Trump. 24/7 Coverage of the Jobs Report, with real-time updates on how many people are thanking him with tears in their eyes. Epstein Documentary Section, labeled “FAKE HOAX,” automatically skipping to golf highlights at Mar-a-Lago. A dedicated Covfefe Mode, where subtitles don’t make sense but still claim to be “the best words.” Apple TV+ subscribers will get access to the Trump Channel at no extra charge—because as Trump has pointed out, “Tim Apple owes me big league.” Availability

    The Trump Channel on Apple TV will roll out starting today in the U.S., with international launches pending approval from leaders who appreciate “big beautiful deals.”

    If you know any progressive or leftist that supports companies like Apple, Microsoft, or OpenAI, this is the video to show them. It’s important to ask the tough question of “What would a company have to do to lose you as a consumer?” Another relevant topic I think that’s important and ties into this is Hank Green’s latest video on Electricity costs (Electricity is About to be Like Housing), the future and purchasing of energy stocks, and what the tech companies have to gain or lose in the sector.

    Billionaires love power without effort or responsibility. Kissing the shit-stained ass of their puppet is a small price to pay.

    Where are the other world leaders? Where are the rest of our politicians? Where are the journalists? Where are the general strikes? Where are the weekly protests? Where are the sit-ins, the occupy movement.

    Where’s is the pushback?

    They are the minority. We are the majority. Let’s act like it.

    Fuck the division by race, creed, age, sexual preference. It’s a class war, and there’s too many of us for them to win.

    Just billionaires doing billionaire things.

    Time to eliminate all billionaires, either through taxation or other means.

      You know, as a younger man priding myself in having a fair and balanced political opinion based on facts and logic, I used to think that if people can strike it rich, it’s okay as long as they don’t ruin the lives of others doing so.

      Not anymore. As I aged, I realized the motherfuckers were either born rich, or became rich on the backs of others - and more often than not, both.

      I still have nothing against honest rich men. But what that means is, close to retirement in 2025, I increasingly want all rich men dead.

      Because the truth is, in our society, there is no honest rich man. If you’re rich today, somebody else is struggling in life so you can have it good. That’s just how it is today.

        I have no problem with someone being rich. But like $10 million rich. Not rich enough to destabilize an entire country.

    Not really disproving my view that execs are basically the easiest members of a corporation to replace with an AI. Tell an AI to suck up to Trump and randomly lay off workers to “improve efficiency” and you’re golden.

    If I can’t wear a t shirt and tell people that genuinely suck to fuck the fuck off, why the hell would I want to be a billionaire? If billions can’t get me out of a suit and get my lips out of peoples asses what is the glamor in money?
