Trump Praises 'Tim Apple' Departure
Following the news that Tim Cook will step down as Apple's chief executive, President Trump offered a characteristically self-centered tribute to the tech leader.
Trump recalled a 2019 phone call where Cook allegedly reached out for help on a significant issue, an exchange the president claimed proved his influence over the tech giant.
Despite their vastly different backgrounds, the two developed a pragmatic alliance during Trump's first term, with Cook frequently visiting the White House to navigate trade tensions.
Trump concluded his post by calling Cook an 'incredible guy' and wishing him luck in his new role as executive chairman.
