Combover King Donald Trump: 'I miss Steve Jobs'

Never being a man to shy away from whatever current controversy might get his name into headlines*, the indefatigable Republican presidential candidate, Obama-baiting birther, and TV "personality" Donald Trump has weighed in on whether Apple should offer an iPhone with a larger display. I have a lot of @apple stock--- and I …

The Donald

A legend...in his own mind.

//he'd get along great with Paris

Re: The Donald

no i agree with you,, he wouldn't get along with paris though. but back to the point what he's trying to say in other words is apple have given everyone else enough time to work on their drawing board plans that now nokia should step up the game, squash apple, let microsoft take over ec2 (slow, flaky, government bugged, us hosted), and bring quantum computers back like Atari in the Amiga/Atari back in the eighties.

Like antone cares

And just who gives a flying crap about what that buffoon has to say?

Why isn't he spending millions in a hair loss cure instead of wondering why IPhones have dinky screens?

[Anonymous Coward]

Re: Like antone cares

But he's right. It should be bigger.

And why Apple can only make one phone at a time is beyond me. If they would make one with a keyboard, I might actually look at it.

Re: Like antone cares

Because he owns a lot of shares in the company and appears to care more about his money than his hair

Re: Like antone cares

That ain't hair, its an alien symbiote.

[Anonymous Coward]

If he as as successful as he claims, he could cause his own phone to be made; with whatever specs he likes.

Stop feeding the troll

What a tool.

[Shannon Jacobs]

I agree Trump is a TROLL, but we can still look for the deeper meaning

For example, the simple fact that the Donald is still here while Steve Jobs has passed away counts as evidence against a just and caring god, which should make the devout atheists among you happy. Me? I'm an agnostic, and I don't actually care about that topic. Can't disprove the idea of god, but if there is one, I hope he has more important business than my trivialities.

As regards the troll's supposed wealth, I have to admit that he has lots of assets (but NOT including himself). However, he has also LOTS of liabilities, and I suspect if he was forced to settle up now, he would actually be broke. It's just an anachronism of the broken American legal and financial systems that his bankrupt state is not obvious. If there were a just god, then the Donald would go broke, stay broke, and die broke. It's almost conceivable that he could learn something from that experience--but I doubt it.

Yes please listen to him...

There's a reason Jobs said no to the larger screen, and didn't diversify the range, This way we get to see why!

[Anonymous Coward]

I still hate large screens, everything is starting to look like a don jolly sketch. Also I like being able to use my phone with one hand.

Taking the Donald's advice on design and taste is as foolish as taking hIs advice on politics

"Taking the Donald's advice". Advice on how to make bankruptcy with a profit on the other hand!.

"Should be slightly larger than the Samsung screen"

Same size as isn't good enough? Everything always has to be bigger for the Donald. Makes one wonder what he's trying to compensate for?

[RAMChYLD]

If it's large screens he want

Ge an iPad Mini. No big deal.

Sent from my iPad.

[Anonymous Coward]

From my recollection of all his various "project" described on the Apprentice USA "infomercial" then he wouldn't be satisifed with any version of the iPhone until the product name starts with the word "Trump"

Another Operation

maybe when having his hair done he should have his hands reduced to Porn Star size. These make 'objects' held appear bigger than they are

[David Lawrence]

I too miss Steve Jobs....

...for all the wrong reasons.

I think it would have been nice to see him eat his words as sales of smaller ("dead on arrival") tablets continue to increase, along with Samsung's share of the tablet and mobile phone market place.

Go on.....vote me down.... you know you want to!

[Rampant Spaniel]

Trumps hair and Job's turtle neck are cousins methinks.

I must admit I kind of miss Job's, just to see what he and Apple would do next.
