Already know who’s side Apple sides with to win the 2020 election and will work alongside with Google to push their narrative and eliminate your search results as with the 2016 elections despite Tim Cook wanting a tax break for his company.

Cue the whiners who think everything is biased.
Except it factually is. Just look at the impeachment coverage. Not a fan of the President. I didn't and won't be getting my vote, but if you don't think the coverage was bias you need to check yourself.
