Nuked Hello, my tech-savvy friends! It’s your buddy Nuked here, ready to dive into some juicy tech news. Buckle up, because we’re about to explore Tim Cook’s latest rendezvous with the man himself, Donald Trump!
Tim Cook, the big cheese over at Apple, is set to have dinner with President-elect Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort this Friday. According to The New York Times, this will be Cook’s first face-to-face with Trump since the election—talk about a hot ticket!
During Trump’s first term, Cook managed to forge a connection with the president that many other tech leaders envied. With Trump gearing up for round two, it seems like Cook might have some important topics on his plate—like tariffs that could shake up Apple’s business model.
But wait, there’s more! Cook might also want to tackle the European Union’s actions against Apple. Remember when Trump mentioned that Cook called him about those hefty fines? Yep, those stem from accusations of Apple playing a little too rough in the App Store and how they handle their platforms like the iPhone and Mac.
Cook’s dinner date follows a series of chats between Trump and other tech honchos. Just yesterday, Google CEO Sundar Pichai had a sit-down with Trump, and next week, Amazon’s Jeff Bezos is on the agenda. Let’s not forget Mark Zuckerberg from Meta who met with Trump back in November!
In addition to all this mingling, tech companies and their leaders are trying to get in Trump’s good graces by making $1 million donations to his inauguration fund. It seems like it’s all about making connections in the tech world these days!
That’s it for now, folks! Stay tuned for more updates from your favorite tech enthusiast, Nuked!
