Apple CEO Tim Cook to reportedly throw Paul Ryan fundraiser

OREANDA-NEWS. June 21, 2016. Apple might be pulling its support from the Republican National Convention, but it doesn't appear to be giving up on the GOP entirely. CEO Tim Cook will help raise money for House Speaker Paul Ryan next week, reported Politico.

A private breakfast hosted by Cook along with Apple's Gary Wipfler is said to be taking place on June 28 in Menlo Park, California, according to an invite obtained by Politico. Funds from the event will reportedly benefit both Ryan and a committee dedicated to helping elect other House Republicans.

This news comes shortly after Politico reported that Apple won't be supporting the RNC this summer due to Donald Trump's controversial remarks about immigrants, minorities and women.

Apple did not immediately respond to CNET's request for comment on the report.
