    Is he not the very same president who tried to ban it before?

      Yes, but now the cheque cleared. Or he’s just trying to suck up to Xi, you know one or the other.

        “Buy my commemorative coins, the best coins, for the new present the true present, there shouldn’t have been another one but there was and that’s ok we will let them do that but they shouldn’t have done it but it’s ok because I’m back now on tictoc shop” - DJ Trump

      Inconsistency is the only thing Trump can be counted on to do reliably.

      It’s delusional to think he was ever going to do anything but accelerate the genocide.

      He is going to help pave over Palestine, not save it.

      TikTok is more important apparently.

      If you were under the illusion that Trump is going to improve the situation for the Palestinians in any way, I have a bridge to sell you…

      They’re closely related issues. Zios have been trying to ban TikTok because of the unfiltered coverage of Palestine.

      What part is good? That he vowed to force ownership into U.S. hands for security reasons, or that now he vowed to stop himself?
