With Tim Cook’s persistent support of the Trump administration and mealy mouthed finger-wagging regarding ICE, consider joining me and others in voting against TIm’s position on Apple’s board of directors.

You understand that the public own the stock of publicly traded companies, right?
Not the CEO. Not the Board of Directors.
They already sold the company and got all the money they’re getting at the IPO.
ETA (preemptively): Yes; I’m sure they do. As members of the public. Not in their roles as CEO or BoD members.
CEO pay is frequently in stock.
The truth is, neither of those options is right. You selling your stock will have no measurable impact. You voting against the majority shareholders will have no measurable impact. More than 50% is held by just a handful of people. They are who need to be convinced.
You mean a minority of the shares is held by the public, and the rest is owned by large investment parties (64% approx.).
