It's the other way around. Apple gave Trump a golden statue so he can kill off all their competitors. They no longer have to compete with their branding or products. It's not smart, it's just lazy, greedy and against any shred of decency. It's not even capitalism, it's plain corruption and proudly doing it in the open.
This is capitalism. In that system the money is the important part and so how you get it mostly doesn’t matter. Corruption is part of it, and they use the money to make sure the laws that would punish them don’t exist.
For the class in the back cronyism is capitalism.
