  • "Apple's detestable moral hypocrisy" ["As a conservative, I detest Trump, his pomp, and his works. ... But if there's anything that could make me want to support Trump, it's this new breathtaking display of hypocrisy from Apple. Apple is refusing to lend its support to a movement based on its own ideological and moral standards.
