Honestly - Apple could have doubled their prices and gained 90% of the US market if he stood up to China and told the CCP to stuff it. They would have had amazing PR for decades.
- ladberg 7y agoThis is completely untrue. Most Americans don't care about Apple's relationship with China, and they're probably only losing a fraction of a percent of customers. If Apple doubled their prices, they would lose the majority of their customers.
