Forget TikTok.
Let’s go President Trump! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

I think that if Xi says "sell", or oks a "deal", they will oblige ...
Shameful that the president of the US is allowed to get away with this type of behaviour. Have standards dropped so low in the US!?! This man initially wanted to ban TikTok a few years back over a matter of national security due to “China” (say that in the way that he says it, please).
But when he saw how the TikTokkers contributed to his election win, all of a sudden he now wants to keep it alive. And he’ll do whatever he can to make that happen. Just to serve his own personal agenda. Why can’t this be stopped!?! Honestly, it beggars belief!

Didn’t someone also suggest TacoTok a few weeks ago? 😊 Can’t remember now …
So this bothers you, yet turning the DoJ on your political opponents, willfully ignoring rulings by the USSC, courting wannabe-Hamas supporters in college campuses across the nation, forcing tens of millions of Americans to get an unproven "vaccine" or lose their jobs & throwing the borders wide open to illegals-criminals-gangs & terrorists you're cool with?
And therein lies the US problem...
Watching that dollar plummet from afar...
The next few weeks are going to be fun when the tariffs either extend, change or apply.
The sotck market seems to have almost given up hanging on his every word: they know what he says is designed to pump or dump the market and make him and his mates rich who know the timing.
So you have your "big beautiful bill" now.
Waiting for the pain to hit the poor.
Reputable news sources have analyzed the impact and of course the bottom 30% are going to be hit hard.
Many there voted for him...
You cant ramp up homeland production quickly enough to offset the higher import tariffs or the weaker dollar.
The midterms cant come quickly enough to see if hardship wakes people up.
But then again, a betting person might think there wont be another election at all...
Trump claims.... Anything his narcissistic brain thought.
He's really destroying the fabric of society with his daily insanity. But I'm old, no kids, and won't see the end of his dictatorship. All positives. 🤣

Stop deflecting bro. We’re talking about TikTok here / the clue’s in the title of the thread. But you go right ahead and bury your head in the sand about Trump and his misdeeds… we’ll watch from the U.K. and other places around the World and just shake our heads at the sheer lunacy of it all.
I can also claim to have a buyer for TikTok - doesn't make it any more true.
Plus - why would Xi want to let go of such a potent propaganda tool, even if Don had a buyer lined up?

The UK....I thought so. America stopped giving a **** what "The Crown" thinks 249 years ago.
Obviously fake, there's no mention of a big strong man with tears in his eyes, saying "Sir".
Some of those people are simply posers, who do anything to position themselves as experts.
It's sort of like those people who've been shouting for years that the Chinese economy will crash horrible... and yet the PRC is still going strong.
Chinese leadership is always behind a veil, have been since even before Mao.
In reality it is unlikely to matter for Tik Tok.
I'm extremely wary of how Americans in particular portray the PRC, as some sort of "China" monolith. Given the history of anti-Chinese bigotry in the US (to which Trump explicitly played) I pretty much ignore any so-called expert on China who sells their wares to the mass media. There are plenty of experts in Academia and even the US State Department (whatever is left of it), and I'd rather trust them than some talking head on YouTube or Fox News.
You’re claiming to be American…
Appearing to be a Trump supporter echoing his radical right, anti-science, anti-fact, pov, which is bad enough… but using “USSC”? It’s SCOTUS, not USSC, you’re not American, and that wasn't a good faith argument.
/The Trumper arguments are still crap too, btw, no matter who’s making them

Let me guess..... two weeks?
You're welcome to him, bro! Do you have a gold-plated toilet for him to use? He won't sit on porcelain!
I mean, yeah they absolutely should’ve done that but we all know the goal was never to cut any real government waste
