This is a no-brainer.
Donald Trump is a serious threat to Apple's slaves in China. Apple, if you're serious about being 'good citizens' you'd fix the conditions you force workers over there to endure and pay them a competitive wage the same as an American would make. You're exploitive, and it's sick. Don't be a bunch of globalist hypocrites.
Hey, Apple, boycotting Trump and the RNC is so petulant. Man, that is some political courage right there. Tim Cook, you want to impress me? STOP SELLING YOUR PRODUCTS IN COUNTRIES THAT OUTLAW AND KILL HOMOSEXUALS! Put your money where your mouth is and I will continue to pay $700 happily for a new phone every six months.

Every 6 months? Are you serious?
My $249 ancient 2006 Nokia 6060 "Clamshell" cellphone just fried itself fall of 2014, so I got a $140 Samsung Galaxy Rugby 4 (AT&T) Flip Phone replacement. I can't imagine paying $700 for a lousy, frigging phone.
I refuse to own an Apple anything. Typical Lib hypocrites. Pay people so very little, work them like dogs while they become billionaires.
Fifth: Google, Microsoft, Nokia, Samsung, HTC, etc. have not decided to ban any and all support for Trump and the GOP.
Buy Apple and overtly oppose Trump!
Sorry about China, but I could give a crap. We have people in our own country out of jobs; jobs be given to foreigners with H1-B visa’s and our folks being forced to train them and then they have to sign an no disclosure form to get their severance pay. China who steals from us in many ways;cyber-theft of industrial secrets is just one of many.
They put chemicals, poisons, plastics in our food; our dog food, they threaten our military, they abuse and torture their own citizens.
They are now processing our chickens and sending them back to us; again jobs Americans could do.
Yeah, China who monitors their citizens in everything they do and say. Political and religious prisons.
We have homeless Vets, Vets dying due to lack of treatment, Americans losing more and more jobs to China and other foreign countries.
Yes, by all means, you go ahead and put CHINA first.
Yep, another reason I won’t buy anything Apple.
And I care about China over America why?
Is English your second language?
Geeez....proofreading is your friend.
Awwwww, Apple butt hurt, never had an iPhone never will.
In the interest of full disclosure I do have a Macbook Pro and I love it so what does that make me? Go easy.
I watched his Las Vegas rally this evening. He stated, as I understood it, that the Chinese are starting to take control of what Apple can sell...at any rate Apple was being treated unfairly by the Chinese and that they don’t know what to do about it. He said by mentioning it in the rally, he’s doing a great service to Apple because the mention causing negative worldwide publicity for the Chinese will cause the problem to be solved.

I've owned Apple iPhones since the first one was released on June 29, 2007. Never has Apple release new iPhones on an every six months schedule. That erroneous claim alone shows you have never owned an iPhone.
LIAR. Apple has never "claims it has to use slave labor in China" . . . That is YOUR claim.
No, actually they have not. Apple has not made any political contributions to EITHER party. Not even inkind contributions. Steve Jobs kept Apple, the company, out of politics.
No, Apple does not. Every worker in Apple's supply chain is an employee who applied to work there. Assembly workers at FoxConn for example have queued by the thousands for every single opening on Apple's assembly line because it PAYS BETTER, by two to three times, than assembly work on other consumer electronics companies such as Microsoft's, Sony's, Lenovo's, HP's, etc, because Apple's contracts with FoxConn requires that level of pay for their workers on Apple's assembly lines. Apple's contracts also limits the number of hours of overtime and regulates working conditions. Apple is the ONLY CE company that puts its own full-time company employees into the plants to monitor the pay, working conditions, and overtime of the Contractors' employees doing Apple's work. The others merely pay money to non-profit watchdog groups.
Slaves don't apply do be slaves and slaves certainly don't get to quit if they don't like the working conditions.
What? No mention of Wells Fargo, UPS, Motorola, JPMorgan Chase, Ford and Walgreens? http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3441313/posts
Most likely October, one year after the iPhone 6S line.
