Where will this end?  I reckon it will end when Mr Trump becomes president and 
he will say Apple is so and so even though he has an I phone as he regularly 
seems to slag Apple off.  Seriously, will he win or will it be Hillary.  I 
notice Mr Abama is not saying anything about Apple but Mr Trump is.  Very 
cynical that Mr Trump has an I phone which he says he loves but he slags Apple 
off anyway.

That’s my take on what’s happening in the US re politics and Apple.  Glad Tim 
Cooke is sticking to his guns as long as they are not the Islamic guns hey? :)
