  • What Apple would have to do to comply with Donald Trump's American-built mandate

    I'm not speaking as a Trump supporter… he's not my guy… but I can't stand media mischaracterizations, and this is just one of a litany of such…

    There was no "mandate", nor did he say anything about "forcing" Apple to do anything. Specific words spoken, in the context of Making America Great Again, were "I think we're going to get things coming. We're going to get Apple to start building their damn computers and things in this country instead of in other countries."

    This reads as if to say "we are going to make Apple WANT to start building their damn computers in this country again"… again, you make America great, manufacturing comes back here. It is irresponsible to use the word "mandate" or to assume that he was talking about doing anything by force.

    There is no misrepresentation and you are a Trump supporter or you wouldn't even attempt to defend his crap.
    I'm going by the language… this article says "Mandate" and "Force"… no such language was in his speech. 

    I will defend ANYbody from misrepresentation of what is actually said.

    And I am not a Trump supporter -- I simply despise poor journalism.
