Donald Trump US President, Called Apple CEO Tim Cook, 'tim Apple' by MYNATIONNEWS(m): 9:34am On Mar 07, 2019 |
It seems US president Donald Trump thinks that CEO is in fact the company. The US president fumbled on Apple CEO Tim Cook’s name during an American Workforce Policy Advisory Board meeting on Wednesday (March 6). While lauding Cook for the work he has done for American industry and commerce, president Trump referred to him as ‘Tim Apple’ The meeting was televised by CNBC. “People like Tim — you’re expanding all over and doing things that I really wanted you to do right from the beginning. I used to say, ‘Tim, you gotta start doing it here,’ and you really have, you’ve really put a big investment in our country. We really appreciate it very much, Tim Apple,” Trump said. Incidentally, Trump called Tim Cook ‘Tim Apple’ while the two were sitting side by side. In January this year, while addressing a press conference Trump called Cook a “friend” of his. He further went on to add that he wants Apple to make products in the US and not China which they do currently. He said, “Don’t forget this, Apple makes their product in China, I told Tim Cook who is a friend of mine who I like a lot, make your product in the United States, build those beautiful plants that go on for miles it seems. Build those plants in the United States, I like that even better.” When a reporter asked him about Apple’s not-so-impressive results during the past quarter, during the same conference, he said “they were going to be fine” but he has to worry about the country. In typical Trump style, the US president said that Apple’s growth has been incredible since he came into power. “I mean look, they’ve gone up a lot. They’ve gone up hundreds of percent since I’m president. Apple was at a number that was incredible, and they’re going to be fine. I have to worry about our country,” he said. Cook joined the new advisory board in February this year. It has been put together by Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross and advisor to the president Ivanka Trump. The Apple CEO is one of the 25 members, the other include IBM CEO Ginni Rometty, SAP America CEO Bill McDermott and Siemens USA CEO Barbara Humpton.
