“Apple CEO Tim Cook plans to donate $1 million to Donald Trump's inauguration fund, reports Axios. The donation will be a personal donation directly from Cook rather than a donation from Apple”

I’ll defend Apple as being the least shitty of the big tech giants but I can’t defend this.

It's a bad headline, but I see where you were coming from.

The article does mention:

It follows news that Meta, the parent company of Instagram and Facebook, has already contributed $1 million to the fund. And Amazon has also promised a $1 million infusion into Trump's inauguration coffers.

So it was name dropping, but it's being done as a company, not the individual. Sam Altman is still mentioned as a single and not as a company again though.
