Trump Wants You To Boycott Apple, Snowden Says Let’s Boycott Trump Instead

When Donald Trump called for an Apple boycott, it won’t be wrong to assume that he didn’t think much. Apple’s refusal to open backdoors for FBI infuriated the presidential candidate and he took the Twitter route to express his rage.

Earlier, the frontrunner of the Republican presidential nomination also spoke his views publicly at a rally. “First of all, Apple ought to give the security for that phone. What I think you ought to do is boycott Apple until such time as they give that security number,” he said.

“How do you like that? I just thought of that,” he continued.

After the event, he vowed to stop using iPhone if the company didn’t change its stance:

I use both iPhone & Samsung. If Apple doesn't give info to authorities on the terrorists I'll only be using Samsung until they give info.

Boycott all Apple products until such time as Apple gives cellphone info to authorities regarding radical Islamic terrorist couple from Cal

Previosuly Trump has expressed his anger by telling his supporters, “who do they think they are” and demanding that Apple should be forced to build “their damn computers and things in this country”.

Well, it seems that Edward Snowden got irritated by the intellectual remarks made by Mr. Trump and he responded via Twitter:

can we boycott trump instead

Can we expect a reaction from Mr. Trump?

Keeping in mind the past matters where Trump labeled Snowden a “grandstander” and indirectly suggested his execution, it won’t be surprising to see some more fireworks from Mr. Trump.
