Apple has let the Republican National Committee know it can expect no assistance from the industry giant at their national convention unlike previous years, reports Politico.

The reason? Who else: Donald Trump.

Apple joins a long list of major corporations that are keeping their distance from the Republican national get-together in Cleveland this July, with Wells Fargo, Motorola Solutions, JPMorgan Chase Co., Ford and UPS already serving notice.

According to Politico, Apple let the RNC know that they find Trump’s comments on women, immigrants and minorities intolerable.

Tech giants Facebook, Google and Microsoft have all said they will provide some support, with Microsoft saying they will provide tech services — but no cash.
