The Apple CEO was at the White House to talk about the company's plans to invest in American manufacturing to avoid Trump's tariffs—and Cook even brought a gift to appeal to Trump's love of gold.

On Wednesday, Apple CEO Tim Cook visited the White House bearing gifts. The billionaire brought MAGA Republican President Donald Trump a new "award" to add to his collection.

Cook's gift was an engraved Corning Gorilla Glass—like the kind they manufacture for iPhones—disc set on a 24-karat gold base.

At the top of the disc, Trump's name was engraved, followed by "Apple American manufacturing program," while "MADE IN USA 2025" and what appeared to be Cook's signature graced the bottom.

The Apple logo was cut out of the center.

Cook said of the gift:

"It is a unique unit of one."

He then added it was designed by an unnamed "former" Marine Corps Corporal who now works for Apple.

During the press conference to show off his latest golden bauble, Trump said of Cook:

"You know this gentleman, one of the truly great legends of our time in my book."

He later added:

"One of the great and most esteemed business leaders and geniuses and innovators anywhere in the world, Apple CEO Tim Cook. It’s an amazing job."

The move—by Apple and Cook—was heavily criticized.

Many felt the latest Trump bribe would fit in perfectly with the gaudy gold decor that has infested the White House for Trump 2.0.

At the end of a press conference filled with the usual rambling, bragging, and blatant lies, Trump concluded:

"I want to thank Tim Cook. He’s a great, great man, a visionary, a businessman. Just about every quality you can have other than athleticism."

And after Cook gave him such a nice gift?

Lauren Boebert Dragged For Leaking Photo Of Hillary Clinton's Closed Door Epstein Deposition To MAGA YouTuber

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's deposition in the Epstein case had to be paused yesterday after Colorado Republican Representative Lauren Boebert secretly snapped a photo of her and sent it to right-wing podcaster Benny Johnson—who then immediately posted it online.

Clinton, who along with her husband, former President Bill Clinton, had insisted on testifying publicly regarding matters tied to the late financier, pedophile, and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, faced hours of questioning in a closed-door deposition after Republican Chair of the House Oversight Committee refused to make their depositions public.

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's FBI Director, Kash Patel, is facing backlash over his taxpayer-funded locker room booze fest at the Milano Cortina Winter Olympics in Italy.

Patel flew to Italy on a taxpayer-funded FBI plane despite having repeatedly criticized his predecessors for such excursions throughout 2023 and 2024. But an FBI spokesperson claimed it was not a personal trip because Patel met with Italian law enforcement and the U.S. ambassador to Italy during his visit.
