It's not clear to me what is the problem you have with Gruber or this post. He's just a journalist/blogger who's covered Apple and related topics by, you know, publishing his own writing on his own website (for over 20 years). You seem angry that such a person exists, or that someone can be enthusiastic about some things having to do with Apple while criticizing others. I really don't understand the animosity towards him and his site that seems to be simmering away in this community.

I think it's just sad to see someone that was (or is still?) a fanatic about everything Apple become or show himself a political fanatic.
In what way is he being a "political fanatic" in this post? His writing has never been politically neutral - nor has he ever claimed it was - but this post calling out the lameness of a bunch of tech CEOs posting similar ass-covering congratulations to the winner of the presidential election - especially the ones who clearly would have preferred a different winner - could have been written by anyone.
he loves to hate on trump, better?
