Trump wanted a US-made iPhone. Apple gave him a gold statue.

It's the other way around. Apple gave Trump a golden statue so he can kill off all their competitors. They no longer have to compete with their branding or products. It's not smart, it's just lazy, greedy and against any shred of decency. It's not even capitalism, it's plain corruption and proudly doing it in the open.
This is capitalism. In that system the money is the important part and so how you get it mostly doesn’t matter. Corruption is part of it, and they use the money to make sure the laws that would punish them don’t exist.

Because they know that that is really what he is. Everyone has him figured out now. That is why NATO and EU brownnoses him in front of journalists, or why Qatar "gifts" him an airplane.
I think Zelensky has figured it out too, and got on good terms with him.
It’s really comical. It’s like the easiest diplomacy ever, within limits and until your enemy brownnoses too.

Honestly if the US actually had a left wing party that challenged the status quo, I'm sure he's vapid enough that he might have tried to get his cult of personality going there.
I don't think it would have gone well for him because he's actually just a straight up shitty person, but I feel like for an obvious narcissist like him the party lines are just window dressing.
100%.
Trump has had some Republican inclinations, but he could have absolutely been a leftist demagogue. Or any affiliation really.
Look how he tore through other Republicans like toilet paper.

Tim Apple knows how to play the game and win
He sure knows how to suck dicks. That's not a win for democracy though.

Is that why the switched to zsh?
Yes, because of bash license change from GPLv2 to GPLv3 apple refused to upgrade the bash version shipped with macos and kept it on v3.2 (last GPLv2) for like 10 years before eventually migrating to zsh

I use to give people shit that the default

Democracy doesn't get any wins anymore. That part of the voyage is over.

Yes, GPL reasons.
