And you’re supporting a company that holds fundraisers for Hillary Clinton and lobbies to flood the U.S. with illegal immigrants. Very capitalist.

Please show where Apple lobbyists are advocating that. They are spending most of their efforts on the tax cuts. I think you are making an unwarranted assumption. Cook may be supporting that, but Apple is not, except for the tech area in the H-1B Visas.

And again, you are conflating Apple CEO Tim Cook's hosting fundraisers for Hillary Clinton with Apple holding such fund raisers. Apple Inc cannot do any such thing under the FEC rules and regulations, ergo, they did not. You want to ascribe to a corporation the actions of individuals associated with that corporation. You fall for the click bait headlines.

Bill Gates, Chairman of Microsoft, Erich Schmidt, Google's Chairman, and Mark Zuckerberg, the head of Facebook, did far more than Apple for Hillary. . . and in fact Google and Facebook put the resources of their companies, especially Google's search engine, available to her campaign, most likely completely illegally. . . yet you'd rather pillory Apple which, as a company, did no such thing. You are a hypocrite.
