Trump hated TikTok (because China) until it helped him win an election (as even he acknowledges) and now he’s going to save it and take a victory lap. So he’ll have X, TikTok, Insta, and Facebook all working on his behalf. That’s a big difference between now and 2017.

I mean, it shouldn’t be a problem for Trump supporters that the inauguration was moved inside the Capitol. They already know how to get in without a ticket.

It shouldn't be too much to ask that the next FBI Director be able to pass an FBI background check.
Fundraising and profiting off people who attacked the peaceful transfer of power should be disqualifying. As the very lowest of low baselines.
