The Chinese, Russians, Saudis and Filipinos understand this. Don't you think Apple does too?

Of course, you're not bright enough to fully realize just how idiotic your comment was in the first place. To suggest that any significant part of Apple's calculation, or any company's calculation, to make investments totaling billions and the hiring of thousands as part of an expansion of their business was based on "pleasing Trump" is sheer lunacy. Hell, Apple's Tim Cook is a Dem. Seems like, at the very least, his MO would be to "resist".
Tell me, how many companies can you list that spent billions and hired thousands to in order to "blow smoke at Obama"?
