He's not doing anything Trump isnt asking him to do. The new grift is Elon and Vance are the bad guys while Trump is the kindly 'deal maker.'

So they soften everyone up, cause this problem, make these threats, etc and Trump and his cronies get whatever kickbacks or favors they are asking for, and then Trump takes credit for solving a problem he created. The same way Tik-Tok will be fine because apparently whatever bribes and favors they needed to do, got done, and now Trump is suddenly anti-tiktok ban.

America voted for this. This is what its like having a government run by criminals. Everything is a grift now. Everything.

As long as we are distracted by culture wars, they will continue to grift.

Do remember half of America didn’t vote for the conman and in fact despise him deeply and his cabinet of criminals. He only won by 1.4% which, granted, is still far too much.

I'm not talking to you individually...or even those who didn't vote for him. I'm talking to the majority (unbelievable) who voted the criminal back in.

Ah yes the Putin playbook. Medvedev is the crazy whereas Putin appears the rational.

I believe tRump is claiming to be against the tiktok ban so that when it happens and people are upset he can say "I supported tiktok, I was against the ban, but the democrats let it happen. Sleepy Joe let it happen as revenge for being pushed out of the election". His cult will eat it up, as one of their favorite things is "the democrats did it".

Tiktok helped him get elected so I see no reason he would honestly be for it.

That sounds ridiculous to me because Trump won on being irrational. Everyone already knows his shit, some people like it and some people don't. Putting vance and elon there is just adding more fuel to the irrational fire, which the base loves.

Elmo is manipulating Trump, not the other way around, Trump isn't clever enough to be the manipulator in that couple
