He's just appealing to the lowest informed voters in this country.

Kinda disingenuous to call apple an American company just because they're based here.
And I think trump was referring to just that phone.
Which makes total sense.

The underlying issue is a serious one. Apple is embroiled in a dispute with the Justice Department over an encrypted iPhone belonging to one of the shooters in the San Bernardino massacre of Dec. 2. The FBI is demanding that Apple develop technology to unlock the phone, so they can investigate information the shooter may have stored there.

Does anyone NOT want this phone unlocked?

Speak up?

 

[Manonthestreet]

Plus they use slave labor....remember when that was bad when Kathy Lee supposedly did it

 

[ABikerSailor]

Because Apple is refusing to unlock the SB shooter's phone, I think a boycott is in order.

Not because Donald the Chump is calling for it, but because Apple refuses to assist in a terrorist investigation.

Aren't Apple products manufactured by FOXCONN in Taiwan?

I see no reason for apple to provide a backdoor to all their phones,but they damn sure ought to open this one.
I keep hearing different stories as to which of those the feds are demanding.

China

 

[Political Junky]

Just saw on the news, all the iPads Trump's campaign is using.

 

[JustAnotherNut]

I think Apple should unlock this phone and any other that may be due to National Security issues, but Feds would have to prove each need.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

The more Trump speaks, the more I cringe. Doesn't seem to be hurting him too much according to polls though.

I'll support the guy if he's the nominee, however I'll plug my nose and grit my teeth though.

I believe so, and I believe it's the place where they hang nets outside the building to catch workers trying to commit suicide.

Agreed.

The reason why you're confused about this issue is because the government is continuously changing their story. That's why we can't trust em

Aren't these workers drug addicts that have been sentenced to work rehab? Why bother with nets?

Apple refuses to give them the back door key..............The Feds aren't just asking for the data from one of the terrorists here............they want open access.........

Apple CEO Tim Cook fires back at FBI in terror case

The order issued Tuesday would require Apple to create and install special software on an iPhone found near the site of the December massacre in California that killed 14 people, so that federal investigators can try to crack Apple’s security without risk of wiping the device’s contents. That drew an unusually harsh response from Cook, who slammed the government's move as "overreach" and questioned the FBI's reliance on on a centuries-old law in the case.

"The FBI may use different words to describe this tool, but make no mistake: Building a version of iOS that bypasses security in this way would undeniably create a backdoor," the CEO wrote in a letter to Apple's customers posted online. "And while the government may argue that its use would be limited to this case, there is no way to guarantee such control."
