Apple’s Future Under Trump, Voter Turnout in the 2024 Election, and Scott’s Writing Advice
The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
Key Insights
How might Apple's future be affected under a second Trump Administration?
Apple could face increased tariffs on goods made in China, potentially raising iPhone prices by $300. However, Apple has already diversified manufacturing to avoid higher tariffs, and political dynamics might prevent the full extent of Trump's proposed tariffs from being implemented.
Why did voter turnout decrease in the 2024 election compared to 2020?
Voter turnout in 2024 was still strong but not as high as in 2020, which was an exceptionally emotional election due to the Trump presidency and COVID-19. The 2024 election lacked the same level of emotional intensity, leading to a slight decrease in turnout.
What advice does Scott give for developing writing skills?
Scott recommends mastering basic grammar, practicing writing regularly, and reading extensively from great writers to understand pacing and structure. He emphasizes the importance of starting and editing as key steps in the writing process.
