Let’s be clear: the whole thing is a con. TikTok could’ve kept the app rolling on Sunday but by shutting down & mentioning Trump, he gets to be the savior. One of many examples of companies & billionaires bowing down.
It’s BS. But it’s also the reality. Let’s not give Trump anymore opportunities 👍🏾
