Timmy Cook is an aggravant
But this is a non sequitur
(Is that an appropriate use of the word?)
He aggravates me as well. The one major lesson he failed to learn from Steve jobs was to leave politics at home, or at least at the office parking lot gate. Steve knew that you never mixed politics and business, ever. Jobs once told a Democrat activist that he would never allow Apple to make political donations or take political stances, especially on Democrat issues because, he said "Half of our customers are Republicans. . . and I don't want to piss off half of Apple's customers!" That was the same reason Jobs cut off most charitable donations except for matching employee donations. . . there was no way to please everyone's pet projects without picking and choosing and making enemies for not picking theirs.
All political donations with Apple association were made by the Apple Employees' Political Action Committee, an independent organization, entirely separate from Apple.
