(33,643 posts)cronies wants to buy the US arm of TikTok.
He bans it, MS backs out, and the price for the business drops precipitously.
Nothing he does is for anything other than the benefit of Trump and friends of Trump.

outside the convention and savagely beat them? Would that be 1968 when the Democratic Party PTB manipulated the convention to ensure the anti war candidate would not get the nomination so they could shoehorn the establishment pick Hubert Humphrey to be the nominee?
Gee, I wonder why young people didnt turn out in droves to vote for a candidate who sought to increase the American presence in Vietnam?
