Tim Apple: From Trumps Gaffe to Cook's Twitter
President Trump produced an instant meme during the Lifelong US Workforce Advisory Council yesterday when he accidentally referred to Tim Cook as "Tim Apple" and replaced the CEO's last name with the company name. Thousands of jokes later, Tim Cook has responded subtly in the most brilliant way on Twitter.
Cook, who had no reaction at the moment during the meeting, has changed his Twitter name from Tim Cook to Tim's playful reference yesterday's presidential coffin. For Cook's part, the name change can be seen as a simple sign of Apple's fandom, but we all know the real meaning behind the strategically placed Apple logo!
For the White House, the official transcript took the president's mistake game on record … but the creative use of an em dash was used to explain it. & # 39; Tim Apple & # 39; was not the first time President Trump replaced a CEO's last name with the company's name at the moment though. Just ask Marillyn Lockheed.

Using the Apple character means you probably need to use an Apple device to see it. Other operating systems do not include the special character since it is not part of the standard character set.
