Wouldn't it be great if Trump inroduced a rule that the republican party can't take money from corporations? Does anyone think that would ever pass in the rule making body?

Apple has told Republican leaders it will not provide funding or other support for the party’s 2016 presidential convention, as it's done in the past, citing Donald Trump’s controversial comments about women, immigrants and minorities.
Unlike Facebook, Google and Microsoft, which have all said they will provide some support to the GOP event in Cleveland next month, Apple decided against donating technology or cash to the effort, according to two sources familiar with the iPhone maker’s plans.
Apple’s political stand against Trump, communicated privately to Republicans, is a sign of the widening tensions between Silicon Valley and the GOP’s bombastic presumptive nominee. Trump has trained his rhetorical fire on the entire tech industry, but he's singled out Apple for particular criticism -- calling for a boycott of the company's products, and slamming CEO Tim Cook, over Apple's stance on encryption.
Apple declined to comment for this story, and it's unclear how the company plans to handle the Democratic convention in Philadelphia this summer.
A spokeswoman for the GOP's convention host committee did not respond to a request for comment. The Republican National Committee also did not comment for this story.
By declining to provide support, Apple joins a short list of tech companies taking a stand directly against Trump. Under pressure from activists at ColorofChange.org, HP, Inc., a major donor to the GOP convention in 2012, announced in June it would not help fund the convention in Cleveland.
“We want them to divest from hate. We want them to pull all their money and support,” said Mary Alice Crim, field director for Free Press Action Fund, which is part of the anti-Trump campaign. Tech companies backing the convention, she said, need to be “thinking hard about where they put their brand, and whether they want to align their brand with racism, hatred and misogyny.”

Thank you, Apple. I hope other patriotic American companies will follow your lead.
Chase Bank and a bunch of others withdrew support, too.

Yeah. They're worried about Trumps threat to damage their China based business. You know the one where they charge you dumb Americans tons of money for a phone that they make for next to nothing in China. Keeping all of those manufacturing jobs in China. Of course they don't wan't to have anything to do with Trump. He'll demand they not make so much money off of the backs of the middle class. HOW DARE HE!
What do you use for brains anyway?

Actually they're not. They require great skill in the actual manufacturing. The assembly I will grant you is no big deal, but the actual production requires great skill. It looks like it is YOU that don't know what you're talking about.
