Donald Trump "will force Apple to build their damn computers" in US...

Srsly, Trumperor?

Trump says he'll force Apple 'to build their damn computers and things in this country'

Okay, yeah, I know... Daily Mail, and all.

But still...

Mister "Free Market" is gonna make a private business change their production strategy?

heh... Can I watch?

It'd almost be worth it to temporarily visit the Multiverse where Trump becomes Prez... with a real BIG tub of popcorn.

amusedly,
Bright
