From the crazy to the bizarre. Would you stop using your iPhone in support of Donald Trump?
Donald has two cell phones (link ) and he announced that he won’t use his iPhone until Apple gives in.
Seems like a meaningless (and rather self-defeating) gesture. Do you think Apple care whether Donnie uses his phone or not?
Most of us only have a single phone, so the Trump option is irrelevant. Would you stop using your Apple products in support or Trump?

Luckily I have a Samsung Galaxy smartphone so I don’t have to deal with Apple or Trump.
No, but there are undeniably fools out there who will.
I wouldn’t do anything at all to support Donald Trump.
Uh NO!
But things like this make me extra glad I’m a Canadian.
I was wondering the same thing. Then I also thought “There have to be some Trump supporters who heard that and got pissed off since there are so many iPhone users…”. People value their privacy – most, anyway – so hopefully he lost some followers after that comment.
I would not stop poking long needles in my eyes in support of any Republican.
Nope. He doesn’t like Apple winning?
It’s his choice…I don’t think anyone would care what product he’s using / not.
Honestly, I have to wonder if the whole Presidential bid wasn’t a lark for Trump from the beginning and that it just took on a life of it’s own. A life he doesn’t particularly want to support. He seems to grow bolder and bolder in trying to piss people off. Catholic and Apple users within days.
The guy’s got to have a hell of a good life. All the money he needs, and he can obviously get by with anything he wants. Why the hell would a guy like that – a non politician to boot – suddenly want to spend 24/7 running for President and then running the country?
Honestly. I think Trump engineered his own reality show “Mr. Billionaire Goes to Washington” and it took over his life. When does he get to golf? If I had to choose between being Donald Trump and being President, I’d take Trump. Hands down. President is a job with Congress and the Supreme Court and all that bother.
He’s gonna give up King for that?
@ibstubro
I couldn’t agree more with you. I laugh when he says “make America great again.” It is great for him and any of the people who understand how to take advantage of this system, and he does it just fine.
I have been saying for a long time, and still believe, that he is working with Clinton and it appears to be working. He is dividing the republican vote and if, as I believe, he doesn’t receive the republican nomination, he will run third party and take votes away from the republicans, allowing Hillary to walk right in. Apparently, he met with the Clintons prior to announcing his run this year. From a political science perspective, I feel this makes sense.
Well, the only problem I have with that, @SquirrelEStuff, is that it’s inconceivable to me that Trump, Clinton or anyone could have predicted Trump’s success.
Yeah, someone might have formed a plan where he fractured the Republican party and threw a wrench in the Iowa caucus, but who the hell could have predicted the mass hysteria he’s generating? Cause, to me, that’s what it is, mass hysteria.
Not to make Trump bigger than he is, but he honestly puts some perspective on McCarthy if not Hitler. It’s like we’ve all fallen into an episode of the Kardashians, and I, for one, hate the feeling.
I agree that they may not have known that he would be doing as well as he is, but even if they expected him to take 10–15% of the vote, which would undoubtably come at the expense of the republicans, that should be enough to damage any chance the right may have had. It definitely doesn’t help that the Republicans still do not have any one candidate to rally around.
I still do not think he will be a President, but will play enough of a role to influence the election into the favor of the same establishment that he is supposedly fighting.
