Here’s a montage of Trump repeatedly bragging about shutting down TikTok.

submitted 34 days ago • 99 comments

to recap: — Trump was for the TikTok ban — which the GOP Congress passed — and the GOP Supreme Court upheld — and even though Biden said he wouldn't enforce the ban, TikTok shut down anyway — so that Trump could "save" it — and the media fell for it we really do live in the dumbest fucking country
